Nick Toth, the inside linebackers coach (previously DC), made $150,000 I don't think that is a whole lot different than what he would have made up here. http://sports.usatoday.com/ncaa/salaries/football/assistant Doors are wide open once a coach gets into the NCAA system. Widen contacts.

You didn't mention the other guys. There was a reason we won 3 games in 2013.
DR. CFL Posted December 22, 2016 Report Posted December 22, 2016 The bigger issue with Mack was his complete lack of scouting, recruiting, evaluating and understanding the importance of Canadian players.
DR. CFL Posted December 22, 2016 Report Posted December 22, 2016 I know 6 guys off of that list that were scouted by someone else in the organization and not by Mack.

He should have stuck with Bill Polian in Indy. If you can't figure that out as a CFL GM then you're some kinda stupid. Edited December 22, 2016 by SpeedFlex27

MOBomberFan Posted December 22, 2016 Report Posted December 22, 2016 Did you know that the Argos traded TJ Heath to the Argos to obtain Drew Willy from the Argos? Great article, Jamie.

Great article, Jamie. That was particularly egregious. The Toronto Argonauts gave up T.J. Heath in a trade to pull in Drew Willy from the Toronto Argonauts.

I agree....doesn't this bozo know that the Bombers have yet to sign a qb. for next season...or is he just whistling up his arse...Walters would be all over Franklin or Durant IF we don't re-up Nichols, which is a distinct possibility..Not even a mention of that...Guess he's not that in tune with the CFL...
JCon Posted December 28, 2016 Report Posted December 28, 2016 Please explain to me why the Argos have not made any changes yet? Are they quietly working behind the scenes to replace Barker and/or Milanovich prior to announcing some changes? Free agency is quickly approaching.
Goalie Posted December 28, 2016 Report Posted December 28, 2016 My guess is Barker and Milo will be back, I think Steinhauer leaving to go to the NCAA might have thrown a wrench in to the Argos plans. I think he was probably the guy they wanted, but sounds to me like Barker was never going anywhere, Milo might have been but I would doubt it now as it seems the list of available coaching options seems to be pretty non existent.

Brandon Stewart and Taylor Reed(?!) are not Mack recruits... I'd say you could probably cut your list in half if we're talking about top quality starters Mack recruited... lots of guys on there started strong and faded pretty quick According to Taylor Reed himself, he was added to our neg list in May of 2013, and then signed by the Bombers in October of 2013 and finished the year on our PR and was not re-signed by us. You are right about Stewart, he came to us via Calgary. Edited December 28, 2016 by gcn11 Floyd 1

Yep the reason was a complete lack of NAT talent, crap QBing, and the worst coaching to hit the CFL since Bart Andrus.
DR. CFL Posted December 28, 2016 Report Posted December 28, 2016 Here you go Stewart, Carr, Suber, Hopkins, Hall and Pointbrand were the six non Mack guys. Tracker 1

Just a top to bottom awful team. Neck & neck with 2009 as the lowest point in Bomber football for me.

Mr Dee Posted December 31, 2016 Report Posted December 31, 2016 It's nice to see the Grey Cup is still relevant to a large degree.. 2016 avg ??? audiences (?games).. SuperBowl: 8.3M GreyCup: 3.9M StanleyCup: 2.8M WorldSeries: 2.6M EuroCup: 2.4M MLSCup: 1.5M NBAFinal: 1.2M These numbers were supplied by Paulo Senra, CFL's director of communications.
Floyd Posted December 31, 2016 Report Posted December 31, 2016 And one more, possibly the worst, CFL.ca article to end the year... power rankings based on stadium and fanbase...
