  1. Also doesn’t hurt that he went to Clemson, that likely boosted his resume above other guys similar to him.
  2. Extremely rare for a Canadian university talent to play in the senior bowl, and he’s the first QB to ever do so from a Canadian university.
  3. I personally have no animosity towards Harris, though I can’t speak for the rest of the fanbase. It feels different to me because Jones released Dressler & he signed with the Bombers, he had a bone to pick with the Riders & rightfully so. Harris isn’t leaving the Bombers for the Riders, and allegedly he reached out to the Bombers first for a job (his words, not sure if it’s true) so I guess it’s not like he chose us over you. I personally am excited, seeing the elite players become coaches is always cool. As for free agency, the Riders desperately need a boundary corner, and a safety. Corners are generally fair easy to bring in and attempt to find a good one so I’d prefer they didn’t overspend, but I’d like to throw some money towards Royce Metchie out of Toronto. If I have to see Nelson Lokombo take one more snap at starting safety, I will shed tears.
  4. He’s a stud, I remember watching him in college. Inevitable Bombers DB signing who winds up being an all star.
  5. I won’t remotely pretend that I was a fan of Harris, I probably made fun of him as much as anyone. With that being said, not just limited to Harris, but it’s cool to see recently retired players join the coaching ranks. I think he’ll do well. But you’re right @Booch… Suitor is going to be nauseating with this one.
  6. Shocked yet not shocked they brought back Thomas for another year… one of MOS’ guys to his very core.
  7. I feel like someone is going to pay him to be their boundary corner.
  8. I didn’t know Ford was already 27, that definitely hurts his chances.
  9. I must admit the nickname “Mayer McCheese” around here makes me chuckle quite a bit.
  10. You think he commands that much as a backup??? That would be crazy.
  11. Oh god that was Dee Alford in that clip? Covering Jefferson is never an easy task, but that was something else entirely.
  12. Harris was the best option available, I personally didn't want Maier starting. Ideally Harris can mentor Coan for another year, and see what happens in '26.
  13. Any chance Costello gets the OC gig? I think he’ll have a good shot.
  14. Ageless wonder that man is.
  15. His viking ancestors told him he wasn't allowed to play that day!
  16. I used to love CF, but his personality wore off on me quite quickly. In his defense I suppose, Craig Dickenson would be painful to work for/with.
  17. I think Alexander is going to be legit, seems to have the it factor that it takes to win. If MTL is smart they'll somehow dump CF and keep Alexander. CF's media tirade will be unbelievable.
  18. MOS sticks to his guys, like many have said, to a fault. Whether it be his coaches, or his players. He seems to think there was little to nothing wrong with the Grey Cup gameplan, not ideal.
  19. I think Buck lands in BC, if the Campbell rumours are true. A bit of smoke there for certain. JY is clearly an intelligent DC, but only has access to what MOS gives him, I can’t imagine JY is in favour of starting Kyrie Wilson over Cole. Could also see JY being the guy that wants to get Adams on the roster.
  20. To a certain extent, would you call it complacency by Osh & co? They’ve seen it all work out before so they think that’ll just happen again.
  21. Look at Jeff Hamilton’s twitter today if you get a chance, he seems to suggest the sentiment in the locker room is that the coaching staff failed the team. Specifically mentions that Collaros knew he couldn’t throw, as did the whole team, but they sent him out anyway. That cued to Dinwiddie that he knew they were going to win the game. Also mentions that Oliveira seems frustrated with his usage in the game.
  22. Honestly, after he tore Saskatchewan up last week, I thought his whole demeanor going into this game was different.
  23. Collaros 0 TDs in the last three Grey Cups. That's a pretty crazy stat.
  24. Congrats to you Bluto.
  25. Oliveira 9 carries for 80 yards... that is absolutely criminal usage.
