In the second year of his third stint on the Blue Jay coaching staff in 2025 is Chris Fallon, who previously served as an assistant at Homewood in 2007 and 2019 before returning in 2024. Fallon will works under the direction of defensive coordinator BJ Hill; he coached the Blue Jay strong safeties during the 2007 season and now works with he Blue Jay defensive line.
In 2024, Fallon helped guide the Blue Jays to a 12-2 record, the program’s 17th Centennial Conference title and a run to the NCAA Semifinals for the second time in program history. The remarkable 2024 season was spearheaded by a defense that allowed just 13.6 points per game and held 10 consecutive opponents to 14 points or less during a 10-game winning streak that landed the Blue Jays in the NCAA Semifinals.
In 2019, during his last stop at Hopkins, Fallon helped the Blue Jays to an 8-3 record and a win over Stevenson in the Centennial-MAC Bowl Series. The Blue Jay defense allowed just 17.8 points and 336 yards per game in 2019. The 169.3 yards per game the Blue Jays allowed through the air that season are the fewest JHU has allowed over the course of the season between 2012 and 2024.
Save for his years at Johns Hopkins, Fallon has coached high school football in the Baltimore area since 1995. He spent six seasons (1995-2000) working at nearby Loyola High School under legendary coach Joe Brune. He later coached at Overlea, Dulaney, Kenwood, Loch Raven and Dundalk high schools in Baltimore County and most recently spent the 2018 season as an assistant at Archbishop Curley.
