In 2009-10, Brian Maurer returns for his second season alongside Doug Brown as the radio analyst for the BU men's basketball team.
In 2008-09, Maurer travelled with the team as its color analyst for all of the road games. Maurer also enters his third season as the co-host of the athletic department's weekly show, BU All-Access, alongside Bernie Corbett.
Maurer's favorite season is winter, as he also does the marketing public address announcing at Agganis Arena for the 2009 National Champion men's ice Hockey team during select games.
A New York native, Maurer graduated from Boston University's College of Communications in 2007 with a degree in broadcast journalism.
Maurer has just moved over a couple of seats on press row at "The Roof," as Maurer was the former play-by-play commentator for BU basketball on the student radio WTBU.
Maurer was one of the co-founders and anchors of the BUTV sports show "Terrier Nation" during his time at BU, and still takes claim to creating that term which has become the description for Terrier fans all over.
Outside of BU, Maurer works as one of the managers at the Red Sox Team Store across from Fenway Park.
The BU game Maurer remembers most fondly was the first basketball game ever played at Agganis Arena, on February 12, 2005. Chaz Carr and Rashad Bell combined for 53 of the Terriers' 61 points as BU beat Taylor Coppenrath and the Vermont Catamounts, 61-55. Attendance for that game: 5,736.
