BU has not announced a replacement, though a report from Mike McMahon of College Hockey News says current Director of Hockey Operations Scott Young is expected to be named to the position.
The Terriers tweeted out good wishes for Greeley on Thursday morning:
Best of luck to Coach Greeley. Thanks for all you’ve done for our program. Proud to call you a Terrier! https://t.co/AYAZnEaHVq
