Report: Marino leaving

Per SI, Operations staffer Vinny Marino is leaving BC for Davidson. These sorts of moves don't get as much attention since the operations staff are relatively anonymous, but it still matters. The Operations staffs on all college football teams are growing and providing critical work in scouting and organization. Because of NCAA rules, there are limits on what op folks can do with recruiting and player interaction, but they are there to help coaches like Addazio succeed.

Boston College asst. director of player personnel Vinny Marino expected to be new OC/QBs coach for Davidson coach Paul Nichols per source.

While it might not seem like a promotion, the move to Davidson does make sense. It enables Marino to be a true coach again and prove himself on the recruiting trail.
