But the University Of Texas beat Boston College with a one-out single to secure a 3-2 victory. It was the longest NCAA baseball game in history. Other records of note: Texas reliever Austin Wood pitched 12 1/3 innings of no-hit ball; two Longhorns had a record-tying 12 at-bats." [MLB.com]

Does Boston have a newspaper that would actually use that headline? Either way: the NY Post ( who would definitely use that headline) are reporting that the BC coach is officially out. 3 p.m. press conference scheduled. [NYP]

According to the New York Post, Boston College will follow through with its promise to fire coach Jeff Jagodzinski if he interviewed with the Jets. He did...so "He's done," said a BC source.

The Boston papers seem to think BC AD Gene DiFillipo will follow through with the firing too. Bob Ryan thinks the AD's commitment to his school is cute, but not practical:

I find it difficult to believe that Gene DeFilippo honestly believes Boston College is the kind of destination school that will hold a quality coach's interest for a long time. In football especially, a school such as BC must get lucky with the right guy (i.e. Jack Bicknell in the '80s, Tom O'Brien in the last decade), because BC is - and I'm sure Gene DeFilippo hates to hear this - a steppingstone school in both football and basketball.

Jagodzinksi is still considered a long shot to coach the Jets, but might be the team's best option considering all the ones they really covet seem thoroughly disinterested. And Jagodzinski loses his BC job and doesn't get the Jets job, he'll most likely land an assistant gig somewhere else in the NFL.

National Football Post, again: "Sources close to the National Football Post have just informed us that Boston College head football coach Jeff Jagodzinski has, in fact, interviewed with the New York Jets." '[NFP]
