No. 101: Boston College

[CrimsonPhantom]

There is a disconnect from reality. This is clear when listening to athletic director Gene DeFilippo, who says things like, “I’m really excited about the future of Boston College football,” and “[Frank Spaziani] is the best coach that we’ve had in the 15 years that we’ve been here,” and “our future here is very, very bright.” Anyone who has witnessed the Eagles’ rapid decline can attest otherwise: Boston College’s future — with the program and athletic department as currently constituted — is strikingly bleak; Spaziani may be the only coach DeFilippo has seen in each of his 15 years with the university, and he may be the best defensive coordinator B.C. has had since Tom O’Brien remade the program, but no, to call him the “best coach” since 1997 ignores our own two eyes and those helpful items called facts, which state otherwise. The reality of this situation is that everything that was done has been undone, everything that was achieved has been forgotten, and Boston College football as it was is no longer Boston College football as it is. Excited about the future? Please.
