TIL: Corey Mace is the Greatest Of All Time.

Thx, Ridernation. Great work!

Wait, so Ryan is saying Corey Mace is going to coach the Riders for 100 years?

Wow, that's some serious drinking Jon Ryan's been doing. He's bagged.

Guy is so tanked, he forgot he was a punter.

Interest in the team was down, gotta put in the hard sell for the stupid bandwagon fans.

This is such a big thing over there right now. They are DESPERATE to turn the tide on that rapidly sliding attendance, so the whole league has been trying to blow smoke up their ass so the casuals, which make up the large majority of their fan base, start coming back ..

Dude is just prepping to release his own brand of weed. 
 Seriously though I like mace but Ryan’s gone full cte. 

That's some bizarre take on things...Mace too has been provided with top level talent as a coordinator and assistant...he not getting that there

Mueller was fired as an OC in Calgary. And Ryan's talking about him like he is some kind of an offensive guru.

He was not fired, he was simply before his time and misunderstood. He is the Nikola Tesla of the CFL. lmao.

Completely unrelated to his postings here, I wasn't aware Jon Ryan suffered multiple concussions during his playing career. I thought he was a kicker. 

Riders suck, will continue to suck and will always suck. 

Hasn't even been through one training camp with the greenies as a head coach, and he's definitely going to bring them 4 Cups     LOL......Now that's some serious big time dreamin' in hi definition ...Ryan was a pretty good punter in his day but I think he should stick to the quiet end of retirement and quit slinging the manure, which they're famous for over there

Ryan also thought he would be the RIder's best choice for HC about a month of so ago, so I would take his assessment of HCes with a giant grain of salt. Dude is just trying to stay relevant by making outlandish comments every couple of months I think. Sad really.

I guess the more they pump the hire of Mace, the more tix they'll sell....Can't see a Cup win over there for a very long time as it'll take more than one or two hires to accomplish that...In reality it's just a lot of 'huff and puff' and you know what kind of puff I'm talking about

this is all it's about... JR knows it as well as anyone, and is just trying to help sell season tickets.

Mr. Magoo would be an upgrade over Dickenson, so that's a pretty low bar.

So embarrassing.

Thee are the biggest joke of a franchise in NA sports and always will be.

This is why they go so crazy when they inevitably lose every single year. 
 

They get pumped up based on nothing and it crashes down. 

4 cups in 110 years but Mace is going to win 5? This is the result of a whole province not being taught to count?

I have nothing against the man but Rider Nation has put this guy up on a pedestal when he hasn't proven he can effectively call plays. 

Getting serious Uncle Rico vibes from Ryan

He's the grandson of the greatest Rider QB. I expect they feel he will channel old Ronnies brillance.

I'd hate to have that yoke around my neck. He'll have a lot to live up to.. Which isn't always a good thing.
