Correction: I confused the Day brothers. The Eagles have two other coaches with UMass connections. WR coach Ryan Day played at New Hampshire and his brother Tim lettered for UMass in the early 2000's.
BC linebacker coach Bill McGovern has been mentioned in the UMass coaching search, but now it looks like he may be elevated to defensive coordinator with the Eagles. McGovern had two coaching stints with UMass. He was DB coach 87-90 and defensive coordinator in '92 abd '93.
