Just a few hours after the Boston College men’s basketball coach program added its first freshman commit for the 2026-27 season in Slovenian guard Zak Smrekar, the Eagles picked up their first transfer commit of the offseason.
According to Jeff Borzello of ESPN, BC signed former Montana guard Money Williams, a 6-foot-4, 211-pound lefty shooter who was named a two-time All-Big Sky selection. In 2025-26 as a junior, he averaged 20.6 points per game — which led the conference — along with 4.3 rebounds and 4.7 assists.
Borzello also noted that Williams totaled 30 or more points seven times last season, including one 40-point performance.

An Oakland, Calif., native, Williams became the first Grizzly since Anthony Johnson (2008-09) to lead the league in scoring, and his 699 total points last year ranked third-most in a season in program history.
He was additionally the only player in the school’s history to have a top-10 assist and top-10 scoring season in the same year.
In the 2026 Big Sky Tournament, Williams averaged 30.3 PPG, becoming the fourth player ever to win MVP honors from the losing team.
As a sophomore in 2024-25, the Oakland High School product earned Big Sky Conference Top Reserve honors, including Second Team All-Big Sky Conference and Big Sky Conference All-Tournament Team selections — this past winter, he was a Unanimous First Team selection.
Williams was reportedly deciding between BC, Saint Mary’s, Santa Clara, Missouri, and UNLV, among other schools, for his next destination, but he was ultimately lured to the Heights by first-year head coach Luke Murray, UConn’s former assistant coach who was hired on March 26.
The Eagles are still in the infant stages of rebuilding its roster for next season, as Williams and Smrekar, along with returner Jack Bailey, are the only players on it right now.
