Its not uncommon for teams to bring in a head coach from out side the organization

You mean behind the Oline that allowed the fewest sacks? 9 less than you

Blame lies with Chris Jones? Interesting opinion. I guess the Riders should have held him back? I actually wouldn't want a guy who didn't want to be there, it will show in his effort. Lapo is far from anyone's first choice anyway. I would be very concerned about him not having the balls to make the tough call. I think he is too nice to ever be a head coach. That being said, I have much respect for him as a coach

Mission accomplished. They didn't mind him leaving the division but not to the Riders. Ya I'm sure Paul doesn't want to make more money and only be 5 hours from home.

Wild, no. I guess unexpected in a way. I thought it odd yesterday when the news broke that Jones was gone that Pederson wasn't on the radio to announce it. It was a pretty big story and he just so happened to not be there to break it

Wild week in Regina. Sounds like Rod Pederson is done at CKRM and as the Riders cover guy. I have no details or idea why.

I'm quite sure it will be O'Day

Booch jokingly said he was going to be our OC this year. That's what I was referring to. As far Lapo, he is doing a great job where he is, he should stay

Your OC position may be in jeopardy now

He is the convenient hire and it might happen. There isn't a ton of time to go into a big search. Unless we just grab some guys from the unemployment line. Trestmen and Benevides

Salary for January maybe, but I highly doubt the annual salary is paid up front for the year

Macadoo's meal ticket just left. Now we can skid him

he did and it was changed to a one year deal. Bridge and Collaros are both free agents

Chamblin is a good coach. Hard ass, expects a lot from the players. He has a shelf life however.

QFT

He always left you wanting more. He would make a play here and there, but no sustained success.

Its pretty well known that a lot of people don't like Jones. I don't think however anyone should be able to just report things like this without any proof. If there is more to this, then I want to hear all about it.

I want to know more if there is a story here for sure. I don't like things getting ignored or swept under rug at all. I'd just like to see mainstream media pick it up and see if its a story. I'm not going either way on this, just not sure this is credible.

Are you one of the 9 followers? or the author?

Wait a minute there. I thought you were going to be our offensive coordinator next year?

stalking Jill Officer likely

Definitely. You may need to throw in Harris to make things fair

It appears I did

He is a free agent

LOL. I'll stick with rum. It numbs the pain better.
