Daily News | Mooney vs. McCaffery is an NCAA clash of two Philadelphia-raised coaches
Iowa’s Fran McCaffery and Richmond’s Chris Mooney, two Philadelphia Irish kids, will oppose each other on the coaching sidelines for the first time Thursday. Fittingly, the game will play out on St. Patrick’s Day.
Mooney, who went to Archbishop Ryan High School, was only 32 when he took over at Richmond in 2005, and had previously coached at Air Force and tiny Beaver College in Pennsylvania. He began his coaching career at Lansdale Catholic High School in 1994. “We’re pretty close. We’ve gotten to know each other very well over the past few years,” said Mooney of McCaffery. “You know, I can remember his Lehigh team. That’s a long, long time ago. When he was an assistant coach at Notre Dame, and I was kind of just coming up and getting into coaching, I knew who he was obviously because of his Philadelphia years.”
