Peter Carroll’s Real Happy That Sanchez Is Leaving

BC Set To Name Frank Spaziani Head Coach

From Boston Herald:

Our Lock Of 2009

Tonight at 8pm on Fox: University of Florida Gators -3 over the Oklahoma Sooners. We love the Gators. This games isn’t even going to be close. The Big 12 has been vastly overrated. Just look at how Texas Tech and Texas both performed in their bowl games. Alabama didn’t exactly help the cause of the Gators and the SEC after their trouncing loss to Utah, but the Gators are on a whole different level.

Nothing beats SEC speed. Even with a 90% Percy Harvin the Gators are going to be all over the Sooners early and often. Both teams have offenses that are on a different level then the rest of the country, but the difference is Florida has a defense that can stop Oklahoma, the Sooners D however has had a difficult time stopping good offenses.

Prediction: Florida 45 Oklahoma 24

Could This Be The Face Of The Next BC Head Coach ?

The names of Steve Logan and Frank Spaziani aren’t exactly going to aspire recruits to go to Boston College and it probably won’t go over to well with alumni if they name either of them coach. BC wants a coach there for the long haul. It’s not an easy job. There are strict grade restrictions at BC and it isn’t the easiest school to recruit for.

So where does BC turn ?

One name that has popped up is University of Richmond’s Mike London, who just won the Divison 1 A championship this past December in his first year at the school. London has previously workd at BC from 1997-2000 as there defensive line coach. This could perhaps be the best hire for the school. They’d get some good publicity for hiring an African-American coach, especially one in the ACC. London, has been known to of been an excellent recruiter while at Virginia with Al Groh, and he is a young (48) and up-and-coming coach, something that BC needs. They need fresh blood at the school. He’s proved in only one season that he can win. If BC is to contend with the Florida State’s, Miami’s, and North Carolina in the ACC, London is the kind of coach they need. The school gambled on Jeff Jagodzinski and it paid off for two years, but gambling on London could change the program forever.

The downside: London might not want to leave Richmond just yet, and if he comes to BC, is he here for the long haul ? Those are the questions BC needs to answer. But with the fallout over the firing of Jagodzinski, London would be the breath of fresh air that the school needs. Something that neither Logan or Spaziani could give.

London is the father of Miami Dolphins receiver Brandon London, who went to UMass.

Longshot candidate: Brian Kelly of Cincinnati. He’s from the Boston area (Chelsea) but more than likely he is holding out for a big time coaching gig. He is strongly watching what happens with Charlie Weis at Notre Dame.

Rey Maualuga Has Been Officially Black-Listed From This Site

That’s what you get Mr. Maualuga for messing with my girl and future Mrs. Sons of Simmons, Erin Andrews. The lifetime ban for Maualuga can only be lifted if he is drafted by the Patriots.

Maualuga joins a list of: David Wright (for the rumor he may have slept with Andrews) Mike Lansing, Eugene Chung, Andy Katenzmoyer, Darren Bragg, Pervis Ellison, Tony Danza, Roberto Costa, Pink, Craig Kilborn,Ulf Samuelsson, Jack Tatum, Sarah Jessica Parker, Scott Sisson, Steve Heinze and Dante Bichette as members of people banned from Sons of Simmons.

But, he did apologize for his actions. From LA Times:

Responding to inquiries from media outlets, USC issued a statement regarding a video that captured linebacker Rey Maualuga dancing behind unsuspecting ESPN sideline reporter Erin Andrews before the Rose Bowl game.

“The situation was addressed immediately,” the statement said. “Rey both e-mailed and spoke to Erin and apologized to her. He realized he made a mistake and used poor judgment. He deeply regrets his actions.”

Andrews has declined to comment. Maualuga could not be reached for comment.

“We appreciate the apology,” ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz said.

It’s Official Jeff Jagodzinski Will Be Fired Today

From Boston.com:

Jeff Jagodzinski will be fired as the Boston College football coach this morning in a meeting with athletic director Gene DeFillippo, according to sources close to the program.

After meeting with the New York Jets in yesterday in New Jersey regarding their opening for a head coach, Jagodzinski called DeFilippo last night, setting up a face-to-face meeting this morning. They will finalize the details of his termination in the meeting. Jagodzinski has three years remaining on the contract.

A press conference is expected to be scheduled for later today.

BC officials are expected to move swiftly to replace Jagodzinski, who won 20 games in two seasons as the program’s head coach. Defensive coordinator Frank Spaziani is the leading candidate to replace Jagodzinski, although athletic department officials will also conduct a search outside the program for possible candidates.

Jeff Jagodzinski Meets With The Jets

From Boston.com:

With published reports stating that BC football coach Jeff Jagodzinski interviewed with the New York Jets yesterday, school officials are waiting for a chance to talk to him in person to work out a deal that seems certain to end Jagodzinski’s career at BC.

DeFilippo said he would take no action until he had a face-to-face meeting with Jagodzinski – the assumption being that the coach would be back in the Boston area today – but he made it clear interviewing with the Jets would put Jagodzinski’s BC career in jeopardy.

According to an NFL source, Jagodzinski made inquiries among his NFL contacts and set up an interview with the Jets, who had just fired Eric Mangini, and sought advice from NFL people familiar with the interview process. Jagodzinski then made plans to meet with the Jets, but without telling DeFilippo, who found out about it Saturday, which caused a major rift.

WEEI is reporting that Jagodzinski talked over the phone with BC AD Gene DeFilippo last night, and the two will meet in person today.
