But considering what a fustercluck this has been, they'd probably mess THAT up.Expectation has the encumberance of truth while hope lives its own life, wild and free.

If Cav is only now pulling out of contention for the job, why the hell did UMass go after Rand Pecknold and Paul Pearl first?
Cavanaugh talked to McCutcheon by phone early in the process but never made it to UMass for a formal visit.
Cedar Rapids RoughRiders (USHL) head coach/GM Mark Carlson is now a strong candidate for the job.
Carlson was a candidate for both the Northeastern and UMass-Lowell jobs.Last edited by boblav1; 07-09-2012, 04:55 PM.

Re: Toot Cahoon Steps Down as UMass Head Coach
Men's Coaching Hires in three biggest sports at UMass under McCutcheon:
Basketball- Travis Ford leaves for OSU 4/16, Derek Kellogg named head coach 4/23. This took one week.
Football- Whipple resigns 1/22. McCutcheon named athletic director 2/4. Don Brown named head coach 2/9. This took 18 days in total, though McCutcheon was only AD for 5 days before it happened.
Don Brown leaves for Maryland 1/9. Kevin Morris named head coach 1/19. This took ten days.
Kevin Morris fired 11/21. Charley Molnar was hired 12/8. This took 17 days, but these 17 days include the Thanksgiving holiday. Also, during this time the NCAA football season was still going on, so it's a bit different as many you might want to interview were still coaching.
Hockey- Don Cahoon leaves 6/19. It's been 20 days.
I'm not including the Whipple replacement, since McCutcheon was named AD in the middle of that.
Also, this is completely different than the hiring of Charley Molnar, and is much more similar to the Kellogg and Morris hirings. Cahoon stepped down, much like Brown and Ford did. He wasn't fired like Morris. This occurred in the offseason, like it did with Brown and Ford, not still during the NCAA season like MMorris. The two similar searches took a combined 17 days. Yet McCutcheon says "It might feel like it's been a long time but it really hasn't... This hasn't been different than any other search."#NewMass

I can't imagine him ever making anyone even feel uncomfortable when he's sober.There are plenty of players in my time covering the team who have looked at me differently or flirted with me or the like. Trivino has never been one of those players. Even outside of the rink, he'll say hi and is plenty of friendly, but has never been even close to saying or doing anything inappropriate.

It's either that or incompetence, or maybe McCutcheon never seriously considered Cavanaugh cause he hasn't been able to land a head coaching job anywhere else. Mabye McCutcheon figured there had to be something preventing other teams from taking him.
But like I said before, I have no idea and this post is filled with frustrated speculation.#NewMass

Even though cav is probably the most qualified assistant applying for ANY job you can get questioned if you hire him and it doesn't work out as opposed to some middling coach who has been a head man before....#NewMass
