McManis hasn't agreed to terms in Hamilton yet has he? No room for him really but he's a baller.

Okay this needs to go forward real badly (and hey it would be a great start to the new CEO's era) Tomorrow can't come soon enough

And we could prob do so with ratio if we "had" to Pretty sure any coach with half a brain if he could do it ratio wise would use a high skill NFL rb...in his prime yrs over a young Canadian kid who still has growing to do

LOL. Funny thing is you likely actually believe that.

We would go Peterson if all things are equal. I am hoping JJ jumps off the page and makes us look at ratio elsewhere if BO went down.

He would be a good fill in for Vaval.....don't know about a fill for Brady, as we'd probably go with Peterson....Coaches still high on the guy

Saskatchewan does not hold his rights. He was on an expiring contract. He may be back in the CFL, but there is no guarantee he will be back with you guys. He would look really good in Blue and Gold. Fairly certain we are probably the front runners to sign him as with most RIder receivers they can't wait to get out of there.

probably. If we carry a di it’ll probably be an ol lol.

Returning punts and kicks will help his chances of sticking around.

What did cockroaches ever do to you?

I have no beefs with the organization... It's the fan base of cockroaches that's my issue.

He's a good coach, but far from perfect, and that is OK for a HC. He has flaws, some that cost his team. Not sure, why pointing that out gets S27's knickers in a bunch.

In that he came from the NFL later in his career, and was kind of a surprise to make the roster and then dominated when given the opportunity. Just a loose analogy. Obviously, we have BO and will ride or die with him no matter what. Just saying JJ maybe sticks around and if BO goes down we could get high level RB play from him.

Ehhh he's still prone to some dumb things. They are god damned lucky BC gave them the out in the playoffs cause the situation Mace went into was super sketchy coaching decisions. It worked but if it hadn't no one would be here calling him a good coach right now.

Kory Sheets? In what way?

Who is hating on Mace.? Not everyone needs to go all bipolar and hate when they criticize aspects of someone's performance. It was an observation on different coaching styles and culture development, not hate. I HATE his team, but can discuss someone's good and bad, based on some of your posts you are the one struggling with that sometimes not me. Who said he wasn't? Contrary to popular belief around here, a coach can struggle in certain aspects of the job and still be a very good coach overall. It is some guys on this forum that think criticism should equal all out hatred. Like they are at war or something. I wish that MOS got the same benefit of the doubt around here by some posters as they are giving a Rider coach on a Bomber forum. Good gravy, the hypocrisy can be too much sometimes.

Probably. Hate to say it but they are more valuable to us on D given our current usage. JJ Taylor is quite an intriguing signing. Bonafide NFL pedigree. Could he become our Kory Sheets if BO were to go down. Possibly.

Will we starve the offense again by not giving it 1 DI?

Stan will win a OT job. Book it. Randolph is our future at one of the OT positions, but it won't be this year. The difference between him and Stan would be negligible and in that scenario you let the GOAT play. Randolph will be heavily involved this year, but it will likely be as a backup and heavy set guy. We can ripen him on the vine, and we should do so. As long as it is communicated properly to Randolph that '26 he will be the incumbent at RT, there should be no issues with him being disgruntled.

totally agree that Stan is a legend and he'll likely play... but he's a downgrade from Broxton at LT... switching to RT, I'd be hard pressed to think he'd be better than Randolph... and he's never played inside, so likely a downgrade from Vanderpool... I still think he'll play... I'm just interested to see how it shakes out... for the record (I haven't purchased it yet) Bryant #66 is going to be my next jersey, if you're questioning how I feel about the GOAT... 😁

https://static.cfl.ca/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/WINNIPEG-at-HAMILTON_SEPT-12.pdf we did it before....several times...and heres an example Swap out Ayers for Ceresna....swap out Persons for another legit DT...Totally doable...Bailey also comes in for any one of the bottom end Canadians...and if we sign say a Gittems and go 3 Canadian recievers...even more options...

Its going to be hard that is for sure. Unless we shift kramdi and start woodbey. Or move on from ayers. Dead on with the DIs.
