Cavan are looking for their sixth manager in nine years following Martin McElkennon's decision to resign.
The Tyrone man has been involved with the Breffni side for three years. After serving as assistant coach for two years, he was appointed manager following Eamon Coleman's decision to stand aside.
His twelve-month tenure started reasonably well but his panel has been ravage by injury in 2006.
Cavan lost out to Down in the Ulster Championship before being edged out by Kildare in the All-Ireland qualifiers.
A Tommy Murphy Cup defeat to Antrim 13 days ago proved the final straw for McElkennon.
Cavan assistant manager Damien Cassidy has been tipped to lead the county forward.
