FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – There was a looming sense of déjà vu as New England Revolution players cleared out their lockers on Wednesday evening at Gillette Stadium. Once again, offseason preparations were beginning much sooner than anyone would’ve preferred.
But this offseason will be much different than any other in recent years, as the club continues its search for the seventh head coach in Revolution history and their first new leader since Jay Heaps was installed ahead of the 2012 campaign.
General Manager Michael Burns has said the Revs hope to have a head coach in place before decisions are made on next year’s roster, making the coming weeks a critical period in the club’s future.
