Boston College coach Jeff Jagodzinski has been told he will be fired if he interviews for the head coaching vacancy with the New York Jets, which is scheduled for Monday, according to sources.

Despite the threat from athletic director Gene DeFilippo, Jagodzinski plans to do the interview with the Jets, the sources said. Those sources said that in the event Jagodzinski is fired, BC would promote offensive coordinator Steve Logan to head coach.

According to the sources, DeFilippo first told Jagodzinski on Saturday that he would fired if he interviewed and then reinforced the school's position Sunday. Jagodzinski declined to comment when reached by ESPN.

BC spokesman Chris Cameron told ESPN's Joe Schad the school would have no comment. But another BC source said Jagodzinski informed his coaching staff of the development this weekend after at least two discussions with DeFilippo.

The Jets did not have a reaction or confirm they are interested in Jagodzinski, but ESPN and other news outlets have reported his candidacy.

Yeah, that's BC in a nutshell.

Order of things in the world according to BC people:

1. BC
2. BC
3. BC

etc, etc, etc. Up in Boston, the Harvard folks make fun of the BC elitists…no kidding.

Why would they make fun?

I went to BC and it’s the greatest school in the history of the universe ;-)

Even if he didn’t interview with the Jets, would you really wanna work for the douchebag who threatened your job publicly?

I'm actually a BC alum

and I’ll be placing a call to their athletic office tomorrow informing them I have spent my last cent on them if they go through with this.

Good Luck

I’m sure you will receive a busy signal.

he lied

straight to his boss’s face. He deserved to be fired after pulling crap like that.

You get the idea these two wanted to be separated and this was the easiest way for both to say bye bye?
