Any idea how good FSU will be next year after being caught cheating?

A lot better than BC? Week 1 is probably the right time to catch them. Their QB is that gigantic dude DJ from Clemson via Oregon St. I don’t recall him being good.

You have to feel FSU is just going to be feeling superior to everyone in the ACC and will especially discount BC. If I could bet on BC games in Mass, I'd put money on this.

Unfortunately, FSU plays Week 0 against Georgia Tech (in Dublin) so they will be playing their second game while BC will be playing their first.

Pros and Cons to that but it is what it is

I'd consider 6-6 a success given the schedule it's pretty brutal. Welcome to the new expectations with BC Football until we get relegated.

Regarding the schedule, I hate that there are no Saturday home games in October. Most beautiful month of the fall in New England. Oh well.

Per Thamel:

Sources: Boston College coach Jeff Hafley is expected to become the new defensive coordinator of the Green Bay Packers. Hafley has brought BC to bowl eligibility in three of his four years.

I think the video lets on why he’s leaving. The gig is no longer what it was with NIL and Portal and conferencepalooza. Shot has jumped the shark.

@BCgenius
Good news here for @BCFootball … source close to the program says Castellanos, Robichaux and Bond are staying. No plans to transfer whatsoever. Source says that seems to be the way the wind is blowing for most of them.

Rumor that BJ wanted to fire Hafley after Pitt and again at the end of the season but Leahy prevented it because of the cost (12.5 million for Hafley’s buyout, 2.5 million for staff buyouts).

I had not heard that (makes sense based on the ease of schedule and lack of results).

What I did hear was at his end of the year review our athletic director Blake James (interesting you like referring to a man as "BJ") gave Hafley a very high watermark for wins next year which Hafley would not have hit so this worked out for everyone involved. :ace

Who agreed to a $12.5M buyout for a coach of his quality? We letting Fozzy Bear negotiate contracts?

I like to think Blake says his name like Key & Peele would, it makes all this way too stale drama much more interesting

I doubt that the rumor that BOB is keeping the entire staff is true but I would like to see him keep Duggan and Huggins. Don't care about the others either way.
