Doublezero Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Bob Wylie or Jonathan Himebauch would both be great additions as OL coach. Jonathan Himebauch also has experience as a CFL offensive coordinator, so could take over that role from Bellefeuille at some point. If it's down to Wylie or Himebauch for the OL coach, I am feeling very comfortable. Asides from Etcheverry, we seem to be putting together a very solid coaching staff. Himebauch or Wylie as OL coach makes me feel very comfortable, but Himebauch doesn't have any experience as a CFL OC. As for the defense, I think Etcheverry is the least of our concerns. McDiarmid and Martin, especially the latter, worry me. Why would McDiarmid and Martin worry you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Look at Martin's recent track record. It's not exactly flush with success. McDiarmid ... never keeps a job for very long and he doesn't really seem to specialize in anything. Not exactly a surefire candidate to do good things with our linebackers.

I would like to see us hire Doug Hocking as LB coach …. talented, extremely football bright, and the right attitude …. he is in the BC Junior football peogram ….

McDiarmid ... never keeps a job for very long and he doesn't really seem to specialize in anything. Not exactly a surefire candidate to do good things with our linebackers. OK I am looking at Nelson Martin's track record and from what I can see Martin was DB coach with Etcheverry and Mike Scheper who coached a ferocious Sask defence in 2009, where they led the league in forced fumbles, QB sacks and a pile of other defensive categories. Also in 2010 he was with Riders and then most recently two years DB coach with Hammy. Plus he has a Grey Cup ring as a player. What am I missing? Looks like Etcheverry wants to put much of the 2009 Riders defensive coaching crew back together. What's not to like, they coached a successful, relentless D. We should be so lucky: McDiarmid - maybe he bounces around because he is in demand. What am I missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBlue Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 Yea I am .... everything changed when O'Shea took over ....

Guest Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Holding on to a little hope that the Bombers end up nabbing Himebauch, Wylie would be great as well don't get me wrong. Qb Coach I'm anxious to see as well, mainly due to not hearing any names, I wonder who O'Shea will be able to bring in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
