Tim Burke Quits As Argos DC

[M.O.A.B.]

Kirk Penton @PentonKirk

Tim Burke has resigned as #Argos defensive co-ordinator for personal reasons. Casey Creehan takes over. #CFL

 

[gbill2004]

With Creehan at the helm the Argos D is in big trouble this year.

Hope everything is good with Burke's personal life.

@tsnmikehogan: Burke announcement with #Argos a surprise to me. He was in War Room for draft Tuesday & was often asked for input on players. #CFL

Casey Creehan. ouch.

Good vibes towards Burke. Hope everything's okay.

Toronto will be a free space on the bingo card.

Hope things work out for him.  Football is fun, but life is life.

wish coach Burke all the best - hope things work out ok for him, whatever the issue is.

@PentonKirk: Scott Milanovich said Burke's resignation wasn't out of the blue. #Argos #CFL

@PentonKirk: Milanovich said Burke is in fine health. #Argos #CFL

@PentonKirk: Milanovich said Casey Creehan played a big role in turning the #Argos defence around last season. #CFL

@PentonKirk: Milanovich said there were no philosophical differences between him and Burke. It sounds like a family issue. #CFL

Hope everything works out for Burke.

On a side note: is Penton the only CFL reporter in Canada?

Argos chance of making the playoffs just went to zero.

Good thing their fanbase beat them to that number.

As a team Burke and Creehan were memorable here ... even though I've tried forgetting.

Really respected Tim as a dc when he was here...as head coach not so much. I hope he gets his personal issues straightened out and returns to the game...As for Creehan....big ooops there Milanovitch but I guess the argos were caught short...Gonna be a long year in argo land..

I'm sure if I should add "again" or "as usual" to this.

It's a Friday of a long weekend.  They went to the lake.

Well, Burke was a good DC.  Creehan was a good DL/LB coach.   But, the Peter Principle sometimes rears its ugly head.
