Career highlights and awards

Dave DeGuglielmo (/ˌdeɪɡuːlˈjɛlmoʊ/ DAY-gool-YEL-moh;[1] born July 15, 1968) is an American football coach for the Birmingham Stallions of the United Football League (UFL). He was most recently the offensive line coach for the Boston College Eagles. He has previously been offensive line coach for the NFL's New York Jets, Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, Indianapolis Colts, and New York Giants. DeGuglielmo was part of two Super Bowl-winning teams in his coaching career; the 2007 New York Giants and 2014 New England Patriots.

Early years

[edit]

DeGuglielmo was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and was raised in Lexington, Massachusetts. One of three children (an older brother Charlie, and younger a Sister Cristina), he is first generation Italian-American, as his father (Carmine Giuseppe DeGuglielmo / legally changed his name to Charles Joseph DeGuglielmo) emigrated to the US in 1954 with his family as a teenager, from a village outside of Avellino, Italy. His mother (June Dorothy Galassi) was born in Boston, and of Italian and French Canadian heritage.[2]

Playing career

[edit]

DeGuglielmo played both offensive and defensive tackle at Lexington High School (Massachusetts) under legendary Massachusetts high school football coach, Bill Tighe. During that time, Lexington High School won two Middlesex League Championships and played for the Division I Super Bowl title against nationally ranked Brockton High School (MA). Moving on to play collegiately at Boston University, he red-shirted his first year (1986) at BU. Despite being a non-scholarship "walk-on," he ultimately became a four-year letterman at Boston University from 1987 to 1990. DeGuglielmo trained under world-renowned strength and conditioning guru, Mike Boyle, who was at the time the Terriers' head strength and conditioning coach. Playing for three different head coaches in five years, and three different offensive line coaches in his first three seasons, he persevered and was voted captain of the 1990 Terriers. The second of his head coaches was Chris Palmer, future head coach of the Cleveland Browns. Palmer and DeGuglielmo would reunite in 2007 at the NY Giants. His final offensive line coach was Tony Sparano, who went on to become the head football coach of the Miami Dolphins. Sparano would later hire Deguglielmo as his offensive line coach in Miami.[3] Playing both guard and center, DeGuglielmo was a first-team All-New England selection as well as a two-time Academic All-Yankee Conference selection.[3]

Coaching career

[edit]

New York Giants (first stint)

[edit]

DeGuglielmo left UCF within a month, joining the New York Giants staff as an assistant offensive line coach under head coach Tom Coughlin whom he had served as a graduate assistant at Boston College 13 years earlier. In his tenure, the Giants made the playoffs four consecutive years, won Super Bowl XLII, and set a franchise record for rushing yards (2,518) and yards per carry (5.0) in 2008.[4][5]

Miami Dolphins (first stint)

[edit]

From 2009 to 2011 he was the offensive line coach for the Miami Dolphins. In 2011 the Dolphins rushed for 1,987 yards in what was also Reggie Bush's first 1,000-yard season.

He was fired by the Patriots on January 25, 2016, one day after the Patriots' offensive line "collapse[d]"[10] in the AFC Championship game against the Denver Broncos.
