[edit] NFL experience
He made the transition to the NFL in 1999 becoming the tight ends coach for the Green Bay Packers under head coach Ray Rhodes. Rhodes and most of his staff was fired after that season, but new head coach Mike Sherman kept Jagodzinski until 2003 when he was released. He was quickly picked up by the Atlanta Falcons to be the offensive line coach.
Jagodzinski was hired by Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy on 2006-01-15 to replace offensive coordinator Tom Rossley. He was the fifth individual to hold the title of Packers offensive coordinator. Jagodzinski joined Paul Roach (1975-76), Lindy Infante (1988-91), Sherman Lewis (1992-99) and Tom Rossley (2000-05). Bob Schnelker (1969-71), John Polonchek (1972-74), Lew Carpenter (1975-79) and Tom Coughlin (1986-87) served as passing game coordinators on staffs that didn't necessarily carry an offensive coordinator.
During his time with the Atlanta Falcons Jagodzinski learned offensive zone blocking schemes from Alex Gibbs, the architect of successful NFL offensive lines such as the Denver Broncos that won Super Bowl XXXIII.
[edit] Boston College
Jagodzinski was named the Head Coach at Boston College on December 6th, 2006 to replace Tom O'Brien. Jeff Jagodzinski in first year at BC, led the Eagles to an 11-3 record, a #10 finish in the polls and an ACC Atlantic Division Championship. Along with Steve Logan, Jagodzinski brought a high flying offensive attack which was very different from Tom O'Brien short passing game style. He has been nicknamed Jags by BC fans and the media. In only one season at BC he has already produced two First Round talents, Matt Ryan and Gosder Cherilus.
[edit] Personal history
A graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, Jagodzinski played collegiately, starting three years at fullback. He was all-conference at West Allis Central High School in Wisconsin. He is married with 5 children.
