Former UMass coach leads CCSU to success
Speaking of former UMass coaches; have you seen what a good job former UMass Defensive Coordination Tom Masella is doing at Central Conn. State University?
CCSU went 8-3 last year. Masella led them to their 1st conference championship ever. It was also their first winning record in 17 years!
Masella spent two years at UMass (2002-2003) as Defensive Coordinator under Whipple. He was not hired when Coach Brown brought his entire coaching staff from Northeastern.
Also on the CCSU staff is Frank Forcucci. He spent five years with UMass working with the defense. He is now Defensive Coordinator for the Blue Devils.
CCSU opens with Colgate on 09/03/05 (the week before we go to Hamilton).
