Michael Nicholas Cacic was born in Vancouver to Croatian emigrant parents, Grgur Čačić and Ana Frković.
Instead of college football, Cacic played in the junior league in the Lower Mainland near Vancouver, a member of the "head hunters" on defence.
[1] In his second year, he tore ligaments in his knee and so missed the last 4 games in addition to the entire 1959 season.
His post football career involved working for the New Westminster, British Columbia school board.
