O’Brien is the former offensive coordinator for the New England Patriots. He had previously accepted a new job as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for Ohio State University, but the Boston native is abandoning the Buckeyes for the Eagles.
O’Brien replaces Jeff Hafley who coached at BC for four seasons. Hafley left at the end of January to become the defensive coordinator for the Green Bay Packers.
