Yeah idk, I could see Simon and Jackson getting a chance. No jones all year and the elk make the play offs imo HardCoreBlue 1
Fatty Liver Posted November 5 Report Posted November 5 3DN suggesting if Hervey is the new GM, Rick Campbell could be their next HC. Geroy could eventually find his way back to BC, as could Jarious Jackson. Noeller 1
SpeedFlex27 Posted November 5 Report Posted November 5 (edited) 22 hours ago, Bigblue204 said: People seem to forget the 2019 version of Streveler. He played qb then. And did just fine. You can argue that he hasnt progressed, and that might be true, but it's just as true that he hasn't been given an opportunity to either. It's a chicken and egg scenario imo. I dont want to write him off, but age is becoming a factor now. Do you not think that if he could throw that he'd be not be given the chance? What coach in the CFL limits his qbs to be primarily runners if they can actually throw? Buck would then be the first. 23 hours ago, 17to85 said: My proof is what he's done when give a full playbook and multiple NFL opportunities as a quarterback. Where is your proof other than "I don't like his throwing motion" What has he done? He never did much when given that chance. His athletic ability & toughness kept him on NFL rosters. Not his ability to carve up defenses with his arm in the NFL. Edited November 5 by SpeedFlex27

Campbell is still under contract for next year with BC so unless the Lions make a big change (Campbell is also co-GM), that's unlikely to happen. Noeller and wbbfan 2

Yeah options appear to be limited I think Ottawa is a sleeper pick. Love dyce but that semi final is fire worthy. Buck has a good established relationship with brown. I could see coach O and Hamilton going separate ways too. It’s a real low chance, but bc could fire maksymic, and offer buck more money to make a lateral move to be oc/ast hc. If he retires, I’d go after Masoli for the coaching staff. Ideally as a qb coach. He has been part of some tremendous coaching lineages up here and down south. Bigblue204 1

Calvillo would be a great pick, idk if he will want to leave mtl just now. Took a while for him to get to this point being a really good oc. Plus he’s at home. JohnnyAbonny and Noeller 2

Rourke is a talented QB, he should eventually get to a GC game, but it might be a "Mike Reilly like" journey were it takes over 5 years and a different coaching staff to get him there. Same is true for most CFL QB's that stay in one place long enough for a competitive team to be built around them.

He had to file a grievance against them before they re-worked his contract less than a year after signing him to a massive deal. You would think they'd have learned something since then but it would appear that is not the case. Booch, Noeller and wbbfan 2 1

I doubt they didn't have the money to pay him but were probably scared to go way over the cap and lose a draft pick. Times have changed in BC, no fear.

It was before Doman took over but after Braley died. Whether they had the money or not, they weren't paying Reilly what he was owed in his contract so he filed a grievance.
