Booch

what is the first time starter salary tho?...and depending on where he goes to compete....who is gonna drop 400k+ on a guy that may not beat out an incumbent?...there is also that to consider....He's been in a system with same coaches...and literally the exact same teamates for 3 consecutive yrs, and knows the vernacular and plays, and players tendencies inside out and backwards...and that is part of what his teamates here are surely talking to him about to help him in any decisions he will make....more to it than just taking your shoes and stepping behind center in a shitshow

yeah I had no inclination nor had ever really stumbled across that name...very interesting and impressive oh thats great...he has an extensive catalog, and access to archival stuff from before christ I think lol

and...what has Harris ever won?...theres that too....stats between the 20's with minimal scores does not make a winner The fact that a new HC has accepted a deal/position right out of the gate where he is basically saddled with a player, and had no say in it is not a good start...let alone look I'm almost certain Brown won't accept a deal there if he does entertain offers...especially with the condition of that oline, and the risk it may be the same as last yr...or worse....Also...who is the O.C?....has that been decided?...and a new QB trying to become the guy on a new team...without a legit established OC...QB coach and system in place....he won't be going there...and his teamates and ZC himself have already been explaining all the factors to him, and making sure he chooses the ideal and right situation...and it ain't there....In all honesty his best bet is to remain here on a fair deal...with start incentives if ZC gets hurt and or falters, and continue his path to the heir apparent in a system and environment he knows and is comfortable in...and has thrived

BO will get top dollar for his position...but it will be a max value based on the position and availability to fill it....I'd say 175...185k is where he will max out...anything more isn't worth it and if some team is dumb enough to do that....Walters will let him walk..Hometown hero and all.....RB is the easiest and mot plentiful position to fill, and we don't need to have that as a canadian ratio spot..we choose to....If he wants 180 and higher we can fill his spot for less than half of that with an import who can do what he does, and even more....and would not need to hold a higher salaried Canadian backup behind him.... Also I cant see him getting an actual TC shot.....or one of any substance...There are so many backs in the states like him....with better measurables and pass the eye test that there is no real market for him...Now if he rolled up 2500 yards rushing up here, and was just literally unstoppable...then maybe...but thats just not the case

was gonna say this be one the dudes to contact on here...or who would have good insight Joa Pascucci as well may have archival stuff from then....Was before my time really as well so not much I can offer

Typical Rider spin....most "insiders" and media outside of Ballsy Clown had it as Buck....even after it was public on Twitter Farhan responded with a "wow"....they all were not hood winked by J Oday. Buck presented his idea and plan...they loved it save for likely a non-Harris QB situation, and maybe some other personel and coaching direction....So he pulled his hat outta the ring....and timelines of interviews strongly show that now...Next up..SettLe for Mace but proclaim "he was they guy" Don't get me wrong he's a good hire and worlds better than what they had...But taking a job and being hand-cuffed by management and who "they" want or perceive as a key piece to the rebuild...and thats what it is...a rebuild is a bit concerning to me. Is he going to just "happen" to retain some staff?...guess we shall see.....But Buck walking away likely blind-sided them, and would have been the better option on many levels.....thir loss continues to be our gain. Just another case...tho a lil less severe as last time of settling again

he actually said that?..lol....too funny...and yeah Buck dodged a bullet there and kudos to him for seeing that was prob not a good first HC gig to take

That's what the best HC's do ..hire best support so they didn't have to worry about anything and do minimal work other than motivate the boys and make the smart decisions come game day ..if a HC has a good staff ..he really does not do a heck of a lot

Yeah...some were done within a day...

nailed it haha

Just read that whole thread over there...amusing to say the least...not sure what the combined IQ is...but not very high....And one does not withdraw their name from a position they were not going to get...thats more laughable than anything....and they sure hoping that all the Argo's are gonna leave to follow Mace....which wont happen....Why would they with no guarantee to even be a playoff team, where right now...are a shoe in likely for first again, and live in a city with paved roads....dentists and doctors.....internet thats not dial up....and no sister brother luvin

that guy is the biggest clown on there...and a majority just cling to his every word...or if in doubt ask what he thinks...hahahaha.....blind leading the blind....in a dumb vaccum

How can the Riders keep that clown as the "voice" of the Riders?....man that organization is just garbage thru and thru....right down to 90 percent o the fans on their fanboard...Yup..Buck's lying...making it up.....just put a bigtop over IG West and be done with i hahahaha

nope

part of it was push from the CFLPA and uncontrolled spending eating into their piece of the rev sharing pie...actually that was one of the major forces behind it. Was not soley to do with teams revenues and money they were willing to spend...but part was for it to help teams incur less loses with reigning them in a bit....as well as first point I made...so it makes a lil sense, but should also be tweaked to allow teams to maybe pay a penalty for x amount of fires over the allowable mulligan to not count against the cap...as opposed to taking up a portion of the cap over 5 years...that just handcuffs and hurts teams, more than help them

So....He yanked himself from the equation...Bravo...Bravo.....

is that not for the Players cap?...Or does the admin cap carry the same penalty too?

of course they are....But they hired OSH as he shard the same vision...not the other way around...that being aid...Only a complete idiotic moron would ruin everything that this team is about if they took over...Its not a magic elixir of rocket science and pixy dust

Dunk actually is good, and connected, and when he puts something out there it's 99% fact checked and solid....leads me to believe as well that we cockblocked them and that in itself makes the Grey Cup loss sting just a lil less haha

and pretty sure Hall's heir apparent is on staff as well...another coach players would kill for

I almost thinking he declined when all said and done...As I know he really didnt want to leave....and maybe after 2025 Osh is stepping aside...who knows....but wouldnt shock me And as Walters even said....who would want to leave here?.....

moreso not knowing what to look for I think

yup....pretty much a good summation....again...They settled.....or their awesome GM made the poor choice.....we shall see

Osh was a huge risky pick...100 percent....But we wanted a culture shift, and thats who Wde and Walters identified as who to best run what they envisioned...They also wanted a fresh face not far removed from today's player as well...which was key..

now question is who is he planning to try and round out his staff with?...and who will decline?...The stench of oday still there....and the putz above him can't be overly appealing....he may have a green fresh staff....
