How can Hamilton sell that to their fanbase after a Grey Cup appearance?

Yeah I really think that Grey Cup appearance screwed up Austins plans. Think he was perfectly happy to part ways with Burris but now that they made the big game how can you possibly walk away from Burris? The fans would riot.

Some coaches & general managers are arrogant & have huge egos. They're right & everybody else is wrong. Austin strikes me as that kind of guy.

Considering Tillman is his mentor, is that a surprise.

How can you sell Burris to anyone with one iota of football knowledge?

I guess that's the rub though.

Has he done anything but been effective everywhere hes played? Not to mention a GC last season and most potent offense in back to back seasons...

LeFevour can only wish he plays as good or as long as Burris.

Wouldn't it be something if Popp left and Montreal had to hire a Head Coach and GM at this point of the year?

 

That would be an opening Tom Higgins will happily apply for.

Definitely wouldn't be easy, though the Higgins suggestion makes sense.

 

Trestman left them looking for a head coach around this time last year, and they ended up with Dan Hawkins because of it.

Would be a perfect time to get out of Dodge .. especially with Calvillo expected to announce his retirement .. don't see Popp leaving though.

Musings from rod Pederson:

 

- Rider GM Brendan Taman revealed linebacker Craig Butler is waiting for the free agency period to find out what his market value is.

 

I wonder about the depth of interest from the Bombers after finding this out. 

However, knowing how Taman feels about him and how Butler loves his bond with the RR's, I doubt anything comes of this.

 

- Tim Tibesar, who was a defensive coordinator with the Alouettes, is rumoured to be up against Gary Etcheverry for the Bombers' DC job.  Rookie Bomber coach Mike O'Shea must be agonizing over this decision because it's taking so long.  He has a very strong relationship with Etch which dates back to their days with the Argos.  

 

Seeing as Tibesar has become an entrant in the DC stakes only recently, I don't know if it is agonizing as much as waiting for Walter's return to announce this information next week.
