Ohio State co-defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley is the leading candidate to become Boston College's next coach, and an official announcement could come as early as Saturday, sources told ESPN.
Hafley interviewed with Boston College this week and has been among the school's top targets since it began its search nearly two weeks ago. Boston College fired Steve Addazio on Dec. 1, a day after the team finished the regular season at 6-6. Addazio, who went 44-44 in seven seasons at Boston College, on Thursday was introduced as Colorado State's head coach.
Yahoo! first reported Friday that Hafley and Boston College are nearing an agreement.
