CHESTNUT HILL – It’s March, so everything you see at any of the local spring college practices should be taken with a grain of salt. A lot can change between now and August when real training camp begins. However, with that in mind, BC fans should be encouraged with the team through the first four practices of the 15-session spring calendar. Practice No. 4 took place on Tuesday morning and……

FOXBOROUGH – On Friday night at Gillette Stadium, new UMass head coach Joe Harasymiak presented for one hour about the culture of his program. Minutes later, Harasymiak was kind enough to take some time out of his evening to chat with us for a toughly 10-minute interview (you can find the full segment here). It’s one thing to say you’re going to change a culture, but since its decision to…

Andover has its next head coach. The Golden Warriors will have a familiar face at the helm of the program as Jay Fielding takes over. The move was ‘announced’ officially on social media Tuesday night. Fielding has been coaching for 15 years and has been serving as Central Catholic’s defensive coordinator. Fielding played at CC and Westfield State. Perhaps most importantly, he’s a relationship builder, as proven by his time…
At one time not so long ago, Acton-Boxborough was considered a threat regularly to compete for championships. It’s been a while since Revolution fans and supporters have seen the boys in blue and gold in truly meaningful games late in the year around Thanksgiving time, but hopefully, that’s changing soon. On Monday night, the school officially announced its new head coach is Billy Waters. Waters is a Waltham High School…
A few nuggets from day one of spring ball in Year 2 of the Bill O’Brien Era: -Number changes throwing me off big time. Grayson James is now wearing No. 3. Jordan McDonald has taken Kye’s old No. 5. -Lonergan (wearing No. 9) is impressive and he’s clearly been through ‘real’ football with Alabama. Looked like a vet both in drills and team stuff. He and Shaker Reisig did miss…
