Last month, a similarly-styled committee was established to find a new football manager.
St Finbarr’s clubman McCarthy captained Cork to the 1978 All-Ireland, one of five medals he won, while he was joint-manager with Johnny Clifford for the 1985 All-Ireland minor win and was senior manager in 1988.
O’Gorman, of Milford, was part of the successful 1990 side, winning an All-Star that year and 1993, while he was county U21 manager in the last decade. Mulcahy (Newtownshandrum), won All-Irelands in 2004 and ’05 and is currently the coach of the Cork IT Fitzgibbon Cup team.

Chairman Lane paid tribute to the departing Barry-Murphy. “Jimmy stands for everything that the GAA does. He’s a fantastic person and he gave tremendous service, we were honoured to have him as our manager,” he said.
