## Resource

Boston College Eagles’ linebacker room gets a major boost as Anthony Palano emerges as a potential steal from the transfer portal—could he be the missing piece for a defensive turnaround? AJ Black spotlights Palano’s instinctual play, leadership, and the urgency to shore up a unit plagued by inconsistency and injuries last season. Competition heats up with Bodhi Cahoon, the athletic Notre Dame transfer, and returning talents like Zacari Thomas and Griffin Collins fighting for reps. Black examines how Ted Roof’s aggressive defensive schemes and new depth—featuring Justin Medlock’s coverage skills and contributions from Kemori Dixon and Palaie Faoa—could transform Boston College’s linebacker corps. Are the Eagles primed for defensive resurgence in the ACC, or will questions about tackling and experience linger into the fall?
