As John Sarianides reported on Tuesday evening, Ben Albert was a name to watch when it comes to the BC D-line position.

Well, after making the defensive backs coach hire on Tuesday with Jules Montinar, it was ‘confirmed’ by Football Scoop on Wednesday that Albert is indexed returning to Chestnut Hill, where he coached a decade ago.

Bill O’Brien and Ted Roof have now brought in two knowledgable, well-traveled guys to lead the way.

Montinar has coached at 12 different schools, including Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Purdue and most recently, Oklahoma State.

As for Albert, the former UMass D-tackle is returning to the area and returning to BC for the first time since 2015. From 2013-2015, Albert served in the D-line coach role after coaching at UMass, Richmond, Rutgers, Delaware, the Jacksonville Jaguars (asst. DL) and Temple. From 2016-2021 he was Duke’s D-line coach and co-defensive coordinator. The last three seasons, Albert was UMass’ special teams coordinator, D-line coach and assistant head coach.
