Jonathan DiBiaso will be the first Matt and Rebecca Carroll Family Quarterbacks Coach. DiBiaso most recently joined Boston College football in 2023 as an Offensive Analyst before being elevated to his current role in 2024. DiBiaso started his coaching career at Boston College as Offensive Graduate Assistant from 2018-20 before working for the University of Pittsburgh (2021) and Vanderbilt University (2022) football programs.
“We are very thankful to Matt and Rebecca for their gift to our Football program,” said William V. Campbell Director of Athletics Blake James. “Endowed positions ensure our ability to attract and retain elite coaching talent and provide long-term stability and sustained success for the program.”
“We are sincerely grateful to Matt and Rebecca for their endowment of the Quarterbacks Coach position,” said Gregory P. Barber ’69 and Family Head Coach Bill O’Brien. “This transformational commitment will have a meaningful, lasting impact on our football program, strengthening our ability to develop student-athletes at the highest level, both on the field and in the classroom. We are deeply thankful for their support of our players, coaches, and the Boston College community.”
Matt, a graduate of the Carroll School of Management, and Rebecca, a Lynch School of Education and Human Development alumna, are active members of the BC community, serving as University regents and members of the Parents Leadership Council. Professionally, Matt is a managing partner at WestView Capital Partners, having joined the firm at its founding in 2004.
The Carrolls have four daughters, Madelyn ’25, Grace, Katie and Quinn.
“We are both forever grateful for what the BC community has brought to our life and strongly believe that athletics, and football in particular, is a key aspect of building that community,” said Matt and Rebecca. “We have been strong supporters of Coach O’Brien and his mission since he arrived at BC, which is why we chose to initially support an endowed player scholarship and have now increased our commitment with this gift. Like us, Coach O’Brien grew up in the Boston area and has had a longstanding belief in what BC stands for and what we can accomplish. Supporting him, and the entire BC athletics department, in attracting and retaining committed and talented staff like Coach DiBiaso is critical to executing on this mission,” added Matt. “In my conversations with Coach O’Brien, we both ask the question ‘why not us?’ so it was only fair that Rebecca and I asked that of ourselves”.
This gift was supported by the $50 million Athletics Challenge Match and will contribute to Soaring Higher: the Campaign for Boston College, which aims to raise $750 million for student life, including $400 million for BC Athletics. The quarterbacks coach is the first endowed position to receive funding from the challenge match.
