LOS ANGELES—Bill McGovern, a college and pro football veteran who joined the UCLA Bruins last year as defensive coordinator, died May 30 at age 60 following a battle with cancer.
“Early this morning we said goodbye to our beloved father and husband Bill after his long and difficult battle with cancer came to an end and today, we would like to thank the entire UCLA community for all of the love and support you gave to Bill and our entire family during this very difficult struggle,” McGovern’s family said in a statement released by the university.
