No, spoiled is not wanting it, spoiled is expecting it. They're spoiled in Saskatchewan but that's the other kind of spoiled, as in rotten.

wbbfan Posted September 23 Report Share Posted September 23 Bombers add db jordan toles to a futures deal. He’s a bigger cfl db, played S down south, I imagine they project him as a sam. Scored some tds in college, one big kr but not a volume return guy, blocked a couple kicks, not a crazy testing athlete but a two sport star (basketball) hs 4 star guy that was highly recruited. https://morganstatebears.com/sports/football/roster/jordan-toles/8480 https://247sports.com/player/jordan-toles-46050292/ https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Jordan-Toles-S-LSU Noeller, Arnold_Palmer, HardCoreBlue and 5 others 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combination of any 2 outcomes between Bomber wins and Sask/BC losses. Sask and BC play each other so only one of them can win all their games potentially. If the winner of that game loses any other game they can't finish better than 2nd. Noeller and Eternal optimist 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wbbfan Posted September 30 Report Share Posted September 30 1 hour ago, rebusrankin said: What's the scoop on Hornibrook? Played 3 years at Stanford before transferring to duke. He’s played 4 positions on the ol, just not centre. Hes a natural rt. 6’5 300 lbs was with the colts for a cup of coffee. Pretty highly touted out of hs but prioritized education. Academic allstar type. Also played basketball in hs. Pete Catan's Ghost, Noeller, HardCoreBlue and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueingreenland Posted September 30 Report Share Posted September 30 These 3 Bomber rookie receivers really excite me - Wheatfall, Wilson, & Clercius (makes you wonder what will happen when Shoen comes back next year). I don't remember a year when we had 3 great rookie receivers like this. Our offense might be hard to stop! bb1, BigBlueFanatic and Tracker 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Academic allstar type. Also played basketball in hs. Played RT and RG in college. Lacks ideal foot speed for a tackle so likely a guard at the pro level according to DraftDiamonds. Here is a summary from them: Jake Hornibrook graduated from Stanford after four years with the Cardinals and looks to play his 5th season for Duke as a graduate student. Hornibrook has started at both guard spots during his time at Stanford, but started all 12 games last year on the left side of the ball. He possesses an elite frame for a guard, albeit underweight for the position. Hornibrook utilizes sufficient get off with above-average leg drive at the snap. He shows his intelligence by keeping his punch between the shoulders in pass pro and accurately targeting the inside shoulder to create holes in the run game. However, he lacks high-level foot quickness and lateral COD, allowing him to get caught flat footed in pass pro by speed rushers trying to go around him. Hornibrook does not play with the desired violence for the position, which can be seen in his struggles securing 2nd level blocks or a lack of explosive play strength, but his elite frame and knowledge of the position make him a perfect target for a team’s reserve offensive line unit. 8 minutes ago, blueingreenland said: These 3 Bomber rookie receivers really excite me - Wheatfall, Wilson, & Clercius (makes you wonder what will happen when Shoen comes back next year).

I think we likely let Schoen walk after this season because of this. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty accurate but a bit out of date, that’s from when he was still like 276, before he went up. Played right side with duke mostly. He’s a solid 4 spot guy but rt is where he’s best.
