Dickenson and Campbell.  

 

Yup. O'shea and Buono get jobbed

"Rookie" coach who finished with the best record in forever.  That usually will trump most other candidates, despite any turnarounds.

BLM vs Ernest Jackson MOP 

Elimimian vs Woods MODP 

Only bomber nominated was Medlock and he will go up against Brandon Banks as MOSTP

No way banks wins that. He was red hot for like 5 weeks early this year. But he wasnt even the best return man in the league. And medlock had the best season by a kicker ever. Medlock clearly wins, right? right?! Man that list was a joke im not even sure >.>

Doesn't it have to be one from the West and one from the East?

It has ALWAYS been just Top 3 coaches....and it gets announced during the offseason league meetings in, like, February or whatever. It seems like they're making COY part of the regular-season awards for the first time...

That COTY determination has just been turned into a farce. The best Coachs don't follow East-West guidelines. They are simply the Coachs who are deemed to have done the best job, under the circumstances, or because of the circumstances, and that certainly doesn't qualify ANY Eastern candidates.

Buono and O'Shea certainly ahead of Campbell.

Derek Taylor brings up a good point that, while MOS would likely publicly say that he doesn't give 2 shits about individual recognition for COY, it *does* probably have a lot of importance to him come contract-talk time....

I would argue that completely.  After getting to know the people who would be in charge of making the decision on Osh's new contract, it would be irrelevant.  The results are the results, award recognition or not.

Never seen this E vs W nonsense for COTY before.  What's Campbell?  4th best coach in the league this year behind three guys in the west?

is any coach in the east worthy of coach of the year after all of the eastern teams took massive steps backwards? Hell coach of the year in the east is probably Chapdelaine....

Campbell being nominated makes me "dry-heave nostalgic" for all the times his old man was rewarded for breaking the rules.

Probably true... he took that gong-show, released the 2 best offensive players.... and turned them into a competitive team down the stretch...

IMO 

Loffler got jobbed... he's Canadian... that should matter 

Leggett might have been jobbed a bit also. What he did was pretty Remarkable 

It should. But ben cahoon proved you dont have to be canadian to be a great canadian in the cfl.

I thought Coach of the YEAR included the playoffs. What if the Bombers pull off the miraculous GC win? Wouldn't that vault Mike over the top for COY?

certainly should. Im darn sure it used to come out later too.

The only thing the east division deserves this year is a Tee time and a thank you for the draft pick card from the bombers and leos.

IIRC it was always supposed to be for just the regular season but because it was voted on and awarded in the spring it usually went to the coach of the GC winning team. Moving the award to GC week makes sense.

I get its East west but how could anyone actually believe Campbell deserves the nod over O'shea or Buono. 

Yet another reason to go to 1 division 

Ottawa had a losing record 

I see it more as if we adopt this crossover crap then picking a coach of the year award does not mean we need both an East and West candidate.
