Id personally approach Khari...he got done raw at the end of his last gig

He's not a tool...is connected...a players coach but one who plays the talent...name recognition...

JJ stays as OC but has a lot of input from Jones but allows Jones to focus on the game and whats going on

Players who have played for him love and rave about him as well...Elevate Younger to DC/Ass head coach with more say/sway with whom we go after player wise.

And there are players in the league who still make a difference that would come to wpg cause hes here...

Simple...effective.. seamless

I like Khari, and I think he was ahead of the curve on the offences he wanted to run. 

I view him the same way I look at Jackson. I'd want them to have either a sidekick with a ton of upside to groom or someone with tremendous experience who can help groom them. No CO by committee, but more like Hall and JY. ,

If we go from inside, I think it'll be Hall who gets the nod, if not maybe walters comes down and does both jobs. 

Or, it might be time for the regularly scheduled return of Lapo LOL

Yeah...Jones and JJ duo would be great in an innovative system and we would likely become a QB developing system....

I forgot about Hall....and really what a HC really needs to do, and take on...with the right co-ords it be easy for him....smarts....seen it all...relates to players...very non-disruptive

if you read between the lines...aprt of what BO is saying about re-signing here is dependant on whats around him .....and he talking other offensive talent be it on the line....reciever and most importantly who is gonna create the offence.....and rightfully so

What player on either side of the ball would wanna re-up here, let alone sign here fresh with the knowing they likely to be playing with...or behind garbage, and garbage coaching....I'll tell you....none...zero...careers are short enough as it is and the window to win even shorter which is the main goal of any player

Guys who will tho...The JT's....Kolo's....the aged out guys with zero future who can still play a bit...but not at elite levels...and prob nowhere else, and offer zero upside...thats who...kinda what we have littered our roster with the last 3 ..4 yrs and the end results spoke for themselves....

If I read O'Shea's personality correctly, he will absolutely balk at not having "his guys" and bail- we can only hope.

I am also a Khari cheerleader.

[17to85]

I'm biased but I'd love to bring Khari home

[Noeller]

Love everything Khari did while here but has he ever won anything ever at any point in his playing and coaching career?

I'm not convinced he's a CFL coach... Tho admittedly he'd have been an upgrade over Hogan (from as little as I can tell from the stands)...

18-18....but also one yr was thrust into the Als job what...like a week before season started???...Something like that...and then still got em 10-8...was OC for Hamilton that brought them to EF I believe...QB coach for Rider Grey cup win....I'd discount his Ottawa stuff as that is just a place to go and die....and was ultra bad when he was there...gets a Mulligan for that
