There’s been a changing of the defensive guard on Steve Addazio‘s Boston College coaching staff.
BC confirmed early Wednesday afternoon that Bill Sheridan has been promoted to defensive coordinator. Sheridan had spent the 2018 season, his first in Chestnut Hill, as linebackers coach.
Jim Reid, Addazio’s coordinator the past three seasons, will remain on staff as defensive ends coach.
