OT: Mark Whipple heading to BC...
really liked him at Brown and has been snatched from the Steelers, he is a good guy and probably will do well at the heights.
WHIPPLE DEPARTURE A HUGE LOSS FOR STEELERS Reacting to the news that Steelers quarterbacks coach Mark Whipple is heading to Boston College, a league source tells us that Whipple's departure is going to hurt. At least PFT says he is: http://www.profootballtalk.com/rumormill.htm "He's a great coach and a big loss for the Steelers," said the source. "One of the best coaches nobody talks about. He'll be an NFL head coach in five to seven years." To get there, he'll have to prove himself at Boston College, in the same way that Tom Coughlin did before becoming the coach of the Jaguars. Regardless, the Steelers will be facing even more challenges for the rest of the season. "What has been a bad year for Big Ben has become a really bad year," said the source. |

Probably the perfect guy for BC. Local guy, winning formula, NFL experience. Besides, now we keep Pees. Best of both worlds.

If this is true, I'm sure some of the UMASS staff will be going with him to BC.

Possible but unlikely that an assistant in the NFL will be leaving for an assistant in college unless it's someone looking for an O or D coordinator position and can't get it in the pros. Most of the key UMASS coaches were Whipple's coaches at UMASS.
