He is certainly the most pro-active gm in the league and always has plans. He had me from his first off season interview. He was so transparent about his plans and how they worked out, or why they didn't. It really made me gave faith that he'd figure out a way to get it done.

Not saying that is the reason that our NAT talent is so much better under Walters but it sure didn't hurt to have guys like Harris and Demski wanting to come home. That sure helped our cause significantly the past few years. It also helped a great deal - that Wally Buono assumed Harris' decline was imminent.

Nolby Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 (edited) Walters has brought in ao many players that were playing well where they were to having these guys get even better and better. Credit to O'Shea and their staff obviously but for Walters to pry these Allstars(Bighill, Jefferson,Demski) from those teams and bring them here is work of a great GM.

As it should be. Any talk of him leaving the team seems ridiculous. He either signs here or retires. But he's a no doubt Ring Of Honour guy now.... The BC years are all but forgotten. rebusrankin, Nolby and Bigblue204 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Winnipeg had Joe Mack in charge and we were anything like that 2012-2013 club there’s absolutely no chance Harris would be coming home to play for us. People can say players wanted to come play for us and that’s absolutely true but that’s because we created a winning culture and winning organization.

wbbfan Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 The New Orleans usfl team named Bart andrus as head coach. Last year he was the qb coach for the Ottawa ggs. Not cfl news but not back to back champion news either. Makes me say eww why When is the last time a guy coached a position in the cis then the next year was a hc in the pros.

Noeller Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 I just don't know where Lucky fits, unless they lose someone in FA, but I have a hard time believing guys are going to leave when there's such a good thing going on. We've already got Grant to fill the Lucky role, if we wanted to go that route. And he'd have to come cheap, which he won't, because he was putting up MOP numbers before he got hurt. So, again, as much as Lucky might want to come back, I'm just not sure where he fits.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCon Posted January 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 I'm not convinced Lucky would want to come back. I expect him to re-sign in BC. Good duo going with him and Burnham. We had a chance but we let him walk. Noeller and wpgallday1960 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was gonna say,him wearing the Bomber uni might be a little more than just support. I don't know how much of a paycut he'd take as he was on fire before he broke his hand. I'd take Darvin back at a bit of a discount but I'd take Lucky back and put him in Wolis spot if Walters somehow made it work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
