Your last sentence. Most coaches prefer calling the plays from upstairs. They can see the entire field & what the opposition is doing. And yes, there are less distractions than on the sidelines. Sounds like LaPo will have an offensive coach upstairs telling him what he sees.

How can anyone say LaPo didn't call a great game in the GC? Even when we win a championship after 29 years, some people just aren't satisfied.

I don't think so. Part of it is the coaching cap. More experienced coaches make more money. The other part is Dave Dickenson is the OC so if Costanza & Dinwiddie want to be OC's somewhere then they have to leave.

Yeah, the guy can do great things but only if the ball is coming his way. He was wasted in our offense. I hope we re-sign him.

He's an older player so gonna be tough.

For once I agree with you. But just this once. Don't think I'm going soft or anything like that. 😉

Not at $400,000 a season.

Yeah, saw that. Too bad.

They have Evans who will only get better with more experience. I can't see both being there. Financially & from a playing situation it doesn't make a lot of sense to have both of them. That would be a toxic locker room. I bet the moment Masoli signs that Evans would demand a trade.

Why would Hamilton sign Masoli? He is expensive while the Ti Cats still have Evans on his intro deal. I think there's a slim chance they sign Masoli. He'll go to the team that pays him the most.

Unfortunately some people do post strange things here so maybe if you want sarcasm use a winking smiley next time so we don't think you're crazy.

I'd like that. Bring Arbuckle with him.

If they let Nichols go then they better sign a veteran like Masoli to take his place as Streveler isn't ready to be #1. He needs another veteran in front of him. He's at his best when he comes in with a package.

A trade won't happen.

He was OC when he was HC here so I'm sure he'll do the same in Ottawa.

Damned fine sci fi writer. Her best may have been City On The Edge Of Forever on Star Trek: TOS.

Collaros is a FA. No one would trade for him when they can just sign him. But apparently going to TO as a FA. Why he'd want to be part of that clown show is beyond me. I know his family is there but lots of players play away from home. His choice, I guess.

Yes, but I think you know what I meant. We really didn't see the full extent of our offense until Collaros took control. He & Streveler were brilliant. Nichols play never seemed to reach the level we saw in the playoffs. The offense seemed to suit Zack's style of play to a tee.

LaPo came under harsh criticism here by me & others on a daily basis but this playoff season when it counted he guided our offense brilliantly. He was a huge reason why we won the Grey Cup. As I criticized him then I can sure can give him credit where credit is due in winning our championship. I wish him well in Ottawa.

I guess it depends if any of the coaches aren't under contract.

the one thing career coaches do is move. It comes with the territory. So, he could leave. Not saying he will but he could.

Just think it's going to be LaPo's system, his playbook & calls.

I don't want a continuation of what we did under LaPo. I'd like a different approach. It really only worked for 4 games.

Buck might.

Don't know if I like that.
