M.O.A.B.

does that make him 50% less chance to have ACL injury?

Am I living in some kind of alternate universe where taking nearly 4 months to name a head coach is quick? I guess what he means is, it's quick (just under a week?) for Higgins to complete his staff . While O'shea is still missinng 2 positions... OL and LB.

CFL Official Feed ‏@CFL 21m According to @sportscage, the @sskroughriders are "kicking tires" on Kevin Glenn's availability. #CFL I dont think going to Sask will make any diffrence. Durant is probably the next durable QB in the league, next to Burris.

I learned that, Wylie has an NFL pension issue to settle and it's delaying the hiring. Bombers still wants him and there's stilla a possibility for him to be here. When? that's the question.

as I suspected he will be the RB coach. now we have an ex-CFL QB on coaching staff. that's really good. how's OL coach search coming along? i suspect if they dont hire an LB coach, O'shea will handle that position.

I'll add Edmonton to that list.

Desjardins can drag this longer if he wants. No team is rushing to trade for him. Bombers maybe in need of Glenn but we are not desperate to make the deal asap.

Yes. 1999-2002 for the Als. He coached OL in US before he began his stint in the CFL too. He would add a lot of experience to the coaching staff too. Although I'm not sure if he will fit to the 'teachers' category that Oshea is looking for his assistants

another OL coach option - Doug Berry ?

Tom Higgins Head Coach / Speacial Teams Coordinator Noel Thorpe Assistant Head Coach, Defensive Coordinator and Defensive Backs Coach Rick Worman Offensive Coordinator Ryan Dinwiddie Quarterbacks Coach Erik Campbell Receivers Coach Mark Speckman Running Backs Coach Kris Sweet Offensive Line Coach André Bolduc Offensive Quality Control Coach and Assistant on Special Teams Keith Willis Defensive Line Coach Greg Quick Linebackers Coach Anwar Stewart Defensive Quality Control Coach Jean-Vincent Posy-Audette Defensive Assistant and Special Teams Assistant http://en.montrealalouettes.com/page/coaching-staff

McManus brought him to Hamilton and his input about Brohm was the basis for this move. In McManus We Trust!

Who is/was plan A? Bob Wylie

rest assured that Kriss Sweet will not be our OL coach Herb Zurkowsky ‏@HerbZurkowsky1 56m Two sources have told me Kris Sweet is #Als' new offensive-line coach. Is this guy an option for us?

He's not expected to be drafted as an RB but as KR. and will go on the laters rounds.

I wonder who hold this guuy's rights... if none, Walters should add him in our list. RB Dennis Johnson OverviewJohnsons had a difficult time gaining publicity from college football fans outside of Fayetteville because of the star power of fellow running back Knile Davis and quarterback Tyler Wilson. However, after Davis missed the 2011 season with a broken ankle, Johnson took on lead ball carrier duties and shined. Even when Davis returned in 2012, Johnson slowly increased his amount of touches per game until he was eventually named the starter once again. When given the chance to prove himself as a runner and receiver, hes generally excelled using the same strength of his compact build and surprising burst that helped him score three times on kickoff returns during his career. He may be a fringe top-100 pick, but Johnson has all the traits to impact third downs as a receiver and a blocker early in his career. Johnson made his presence felt immediately on special teams for the Razorbacks, earning Freshman All-SEC honors from league coaches after setting a school record for 905 kick return yards; he also started two games on offense (36-184, TD rushing). He upped that kick return yardage record in 2009 (1,031 yards, with a touchdown for the second straight year) while again starting two contests at running back (57-342 rushing, 10-72 receiving). He redshirted the 2010 season after suffering what was called a bowel injury two games in, and then missed the first two games of the 2011 season with a hamstring issue from preseason. But he stepped up as a runner (106-670, 3 TD), receiver (24-255, 2 TD) and again as a kick returner (18-461, TD) when healthy. In 2012, Johnson averaged over 5.5 yards per carry (137-757) to go along with eight rushing touchdowns. He added 160 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 25 receptions while averaging only 18.2 yards per kick return on 17 attempts. NFL teams might focus on Johnsons 14 career fumbles, including five in each of the last two seasons. At Arkansas' pro day, Johnson had times of 4.47 and 4.49 seconds in the 40-yard dash. He also recorded a 32 1/2-inch vertical and 9-foot-10 broad jump. He ran a 4.55-second short-shuttle and a very fast 7.11-second three-cone drill. Johnson put up 225 pounds on the bench press 21 times. Analysis Strengths Low center of gravity back with thick upper body and tree trunks for legs. Possesses vision and quick feet to elude defenders on top of him near the line, slalom through creases inside, and set up defenders with a juke ten yards away. Will lower pads for contact and keep his feet churning, capable of trucking tackles going low. Short, choppy steps really help when breaking tackles. Switches the ball to his outside hand in the open field. Solid receiver out of the backfield, has flexibility to turn for throws and soft hands to ****** high passes. Able to run through poor tackle attempts by defensive backs after the catch. Decisive runner on kickoff returns, uses foot quickness to explode through lanes. Shows hustle and feistiness when blocking or going after fumbles on the ground. Willing to stand up and sustain to defensive backs and smaller linebackers in pass pro. Weaknesses Doesnt have elite long speed, but is difficult to catch once in the open field. Shake-and-bake often fails to elude better tacklers in the open field. Tries to stiff-arm off tackles too often, leaving ball exposed. Rounds off cuts, but is capable of stick-and-go. Will stand up in the hole at time, giving defenders a big target despite his stature. Hasnt consistently held his ground against larger blitzers or defensive ends. Major ball security issues with 14 lost fumbles during his career. NFL Comparison Michael Turner Bottom Line Despite being overshadowed by teammate Knile Davis for a large portion of his career, Johnson made a name for himself whenever he was given the opportunity to fill-in as the starter before eventually overtaking Davis at the top. Despite having a bit of a bowling-ball look to his game, Johnsons burst and strength as a ball carrier not only helps him get tough yards as a runner (averaged 5.9 yards per carry in his career) but also break off chunks of real estate as a returner and receiver, which means he could prove to be a valuable mid-round pick as a regular contributor on offense and special teams. He may be the best third down back in college football. http://www.nfl.com/draft/2013/profiles/dennis-johnson?id=2539936

Add QB Jarrett Lee that's 2 young QBs coming in the BC camp. Joey Elliott's time maybe up in BC.

did they signed Paris Jackson?

Joey Elliott watch out.

do you realize it's still 3 months to go before TC? the bombers are still conducting free agent camps in the US. new players will be signed. just wait. stop being a troll.

Boatman should apply as mascot for the Argos. No costume necessary, just the uniform and name on his back

3lue_n_6old ‏@3lue_n_6old 1h @PentonKirk hey Kirk, would you know if the #Bombers still pursuing Bob Wylie? Kirk Penton ‏@PentonKirk 17m @3lue_n_6old Yes, I believe they are. It sounds like he's not ready to come back north.

buh-bye Boatman

Is Wylie employed as coach currently?

Mike, if not Wylie is Buratto (assumng he is contacted) a good option? He got history with both O'shea and MarcelB

Same here. Aside from Wylie, the only decent OL coach I can think off is Buratto (he's with the Dinos currently). Or we probably end with that Omaha Knighthawks OL. Worse comes to worse we will get Kris Sweet.
