Atomic Posted December 3, 2015 Report Posted December 3, 2015 I find it pretty scummy of the regina team trying to poach another team's HC days after the cup win. I also hoped they'd rehire the babysitter groper so they could remain in the basement where they belong.. Can't a man walk down the street in this country without being offered a job?? 17to85, Esks1975 and Noeller 3
iso_55 Posted December 3, 2015 Report Posted December 3, 2015 I could see the locals in Sask turning on Jones quick if things don't go well. His attitude is basically a big **** you to all things media or reaching out and I can't see that playing well in that market. He better win because he isn't the nicest guy around. I bet he'll do all kinds of things like not talk to local media, close practices & alienate fans. That's all okay but as Mike Kelly found out here that'llonly works if he wins.

Lose though and the knives come out quick. iso_55 1
AtlanticRiderFan Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Jason Mass I need a source to confirm this, but I've heard rumours flying around that Edmonton is requesting permission to speak with Maas. The pieces seem to be falling into place.

The pieces seem to be falling into place. Been discussed ad nauseum.....he's the next head coach, when/if Jones leaves for the Dirty Regina...
Noeller Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 gary lawless @garylawless 3m3 minutes ago Lot of people in @cfl wondering if @sskroughriders will make a deal with Chris Jones. One GM just texted: "it's holding everybody up."

The pieces seem to be falling into place. Been discussed ad nauseum.....he's the next head coach, when/if Jones leaves for the Dirty Regina... Not sure Maas is ready for a HC position yet, he was part of a strong RB coaching staff which can distort one person's contribution. Remains to be seen if he can handle the top job or not.

DR. CFL Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Hence the critical component of having a strong supporting staff. Something that has contributed to MOS lack of success. Not sure if Walters asked MOS what his staff would look like in his interview....opps.
GCn20 Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 I'm sure Walter never thought of that. Lmao. When Walters DID ask MOS who we saw as his potential staff the answers he got were OC- Jason Maas and DC Rich Stubler. As we know, those were the guys that MOS wanted. Bellefeuille got pushed on him by Walters/Miller and Stubler rejected us after it looked like we were going to get him. The rest of the staff is irrelevant as the coordinators have heavy input into that.
BigBlue Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 If Jones is good at recruiting why don't we hire him as our GM ... outbid Sask for once
Goalie Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Because whether you like it or not, we have a GM. Why ask some of these questions when you know the answers to them? bigg jay and B-F-F-C 2
bigg jay Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Because whether you like it or not, we have a GM. Why ask some of these questions when you know the answers to them? Yep, same reason as why doesn't Edmonton can't keep him. Money isn't an issue for them, already having someone in the GM role is though.
GCn20 Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 I'm begrudgingly willing to give Walters one more year because I believe a GM and scouting unit needs that to fully implement their plan. However, I will say that I am disappointed in the progress we have seen so far. He better knock it outta the park this offseason. No more farting around. FIX IT. B-F-F-C 1
Goalie Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 The scouting needs to step up. Walters himself has done a good job. It's the scouts that really haven't. Active in free agency? Check. Signing guys to extensions? Check. Trades to help the team? Check. The scouting tho has really only produced bass and j adams. Not good enough Spencer Davis looked good last game of the season but he wasn't being used as a receiver. Jury out on him but looks to have potential but still 3 maybe 4 guys if you include Justin Cole... not good enough. the watcher 1

I'm not a fan of the scouting either, but let's be honest - they also got Cotton, Marshall, Daniels, Bruce Johnson.

I take it despite the poor results they're standing pat with the current scouting staff?

How about Leggett?

DR. CFL Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Chris Jones declined an opportunity for an interview the last go round here.
Fatty Liver Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Chris Jones declined an opportunity for an interview the last go round here. Details? When and for what position?
M.O.A.B. Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Sask. Roughriders ✔ @sskroughriders The #riders have accepted DC Greg Quick's resignation in order to allow him to pursue other football opportunities. Paving the way for Chris Jones.
Blueandgold Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Sask. Roughriders ✔ @sskroughriders The #riders have accepted DC Greg Quick's resignation in order to allow him to pursue other football opportunities. Paving the way for Chris Jones. Greg Quick wasn't coming back regardless.
BigBlue Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Because whether you like it or not, we have a GM. Why ask some of these questions when you know the answers to them? Because we have a Wade Miller savior who could bid for Jones
DR. CFL Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Anybody hear any reports on KJ's interview yesterday?
