Buck would make more sense after he decided not to leave after ‘22 and ‘23, might feel more ready now… plus has ties to the Lions organization.

Could be, I certainly wouldn’t be shocked. It just seems way early for it to be a foregone conclusion.

Apparently he auditioned for the Rider HC job and was turned down, so his ego would have smarted after that. Ergo. with his connections to the Beastly Lions, he would be interested in the HC job out there. Despite some of his very questionable calls as OC here, he has served us well and thus I do not begrudge him this opportunity.

For sure, I think every coordinator has made their share of questionable decisions here and there, but you’d have to think Buck is up next.

According to TSN this afternoon, the speculation is Campbell stays as BC coach but maybe loses his GM role or Ridgemaiden is made Co-GM. All this talk of Buck leaving could be a moo point.


Shuffling the same management after a bad season doesn’t usually work. Just muddies the waters and creates more conflict. 

I’d laugh pretty hard if they had to clean house and rebuild again after they got crowned so early by the media this year.

That would make sense. I feel like the gm market will be tougher than coaching. 
 I think Chucking Campbell entirely or as coach makes the most sense but that doesn’t mean it’ll happen. If you don’t replace him with proven winning hc a guy like buck makes sense. 
 That said maksymic has to be on the way out now. But with out a bigger label it’ll be hard to get an oc whose proven. 
 

I think buck has a good shot in Ottawa too.

I think it'll be tough for buck to leave winnipeg with a home grey cup next year.

After next year I think all bets are off. But I'd be surprised if he went anywhere

I don’t think that’ll be a big thing for him tbh. And I mean after coaching in 5 in a row, it is what it is. 
 If some one offers buck an upgraded job this off season, I think he goes. I think the chances he gets that offer is pretty limited though.

It's moo.

A moo point?

 Yeah, it's like a cow's opinion, you know, it just doesn't matter. It's "moo".

Apparently? Is this sarcastic?.... it was probably the most talked about off-season story last year around these parts....

Also he wasn't turned down... HE turned it down and then had to scramble to get Mace, who they had just told 'thanks but no thanks'... That was pretty much all we talked about last November/December...

I have it on good authority that Buck got the sense Mace was going to get offered the job & then decided to turn it down. There was absolutely no scrambling to get CM lol. Initially Buck was considered the favorite, until Mace absolutely crushed his interview, and they decided to go CM's way.

As you say, but who knows what goes on behind closed doors? (Sounds like a good title for a C&W song)
