Who Is Fran McCaffery's Wife, Margaret McCaffery?

After graduating from Notre Dame with a law degree, Margaret McCaffery turned pro in the European league, playing one year for France, before tendonitis in her knee forced her to retire, Her Hoop Stats reported. She then returned to the United States with the goal of attending law school in Minnesota. However, those plans were put on hold when her old coach, Muffet McGraw, called and offered her an assistant coaching gig for the Fighting Irish. It was during that year of assistant coaching that she met her husband, Fran McCaffery, who was an assistant coach for the men's team.

The two started dating, and Margaret ended up attending law school at Notre Dame instead to stay close to him. Their relationship centered around basketball, with Sports Illustrated reporting that their second date involved them attending an NBA exhibition game, and Fran proposed after a game as well. And although Margaret graduated law school and started working in legal aid, leaving her assistant coaching job after a year, three out of their four kids got the basketball bug as well. In fact, Fran and Margaret coached their youth teams, as seen in the Iowa Press Citizen.
