Daley was a three-year starter at guard and elected captain as a sophomore in 1913. He also earned varsity letters in track and baseball. In 1927, he became the first BC graduate to become full-time head football coach. He had been the football coach at English High School of Boston and was given a one-year contract. Despite losing four-year starting quarterback Joe McKenney and having only 12 returning lettermen, Daley coached his team to a respectable 4–4 record. Daley, however, decided to return to coaching at English after his only season as BC coach as was replaced by assistant Joe McKenney.
