...according to the Twitter feed to the right, there's a doin's a-transpirin' in Leo Land. Wally with too many fingers in the pie, leaving coaches and players angry. Coaches not getting along. Both Glenn and Khari likely on their way out. 

 

Very interesting to see how messy the fallout gets...

Khari for OC with the Bombers!

At one time he was very best buds with Miller.

Khari for OC.

Free Elimimian!

Will Buono retire?

Will Buono retire?

I hope not. Good GMs are good for the league in general.

Whole outfit looked pretty dysfunctional on sidelines.

 

Big changes coming to Priders too - only they're not calling it a "blow-up" or "rebuild" they're calling it a "tear-down phase" Prider fans are lapping it up because they think team will be fine -.

I am still unsure if I am sold on Khari as a great OC.... he had so many weapons in BC and yet the team was very inconsistent...  

Sounds like a case of too many cooks and no real head chef in that kitchen there.

 

Hard to say what will happen with BC, all i know is buono has a reputation and history of having no issues getting rid of veterans. I suspect several are let go.

 

Marsh i think has punched his ticket out of town, see one his tweets there saying 24 (banks) should still be with the team. That in my opion means that's all she wrote for Marsh.

Um, not sure I get that. He had Kevin Glenn as a QB - we all know that KG is the best 'backup' in the league and he prove it yet again. BTW - I nearly choked to death on my munchies when in the inteview aired on TSN with James Duthie yesterday pregame Kevin and "Hall of fame" were mentioned in the same sentence. 

Would like to see him as OC with out Kevin Glenn. Been stuck with him for both of his OC seasons.

Definitely curious about KJ17....curious what he thinks of Willy, after their time in SK.

Marsh also had some comments I saw on Twitter saying Korey Banks never should have been cut. 

 

Unrelated to the Lions, but comments that I saw re-tweeted from local writers had Corey Chamblin essentially admitting that next year will be a rebuilding year for the Riders given how many free agents the club has coming up.

 

It will be an interesting offseason, no doubt about it.

Looks like there will be some good options for the Bombers OC

Wonder if Benevides gets fired. I've always hated him, strikes me as a major asshat. 

 

I like Khari, and am fine with him coming here in some capacity. Worked under MB before and had good results, though I still think MB had a lot of influence on that.

Khari has shown absolutely nothing. If Priders are going to scapegoat Cortez I'd go after him.

I disagree...as defacto OC in 2002, he showed quite a bit...

What has impressed me about Khari all along has been his intelligence. He was never the most athletic but instead relied on his smarts, hard work and preparation- all good characteristics for a coach. Besides, he and his wife would be great additions to the community.  He has a lot of good karma in Winnipeg.

Personally I'm more interested in seeing what develops with Milanovich and Cortez, but if they aren't options if Marcel is let go, I'd take Khari for sure.

Id personally love to have Milanovich here over Cortez, loved watching his offense in Montreal in years past. I realize Cortez had to deal with backups for the second half of the season but, his game plans seemed lackluster with Tino and what other jalopy qbs they had rotating in and out of the starting position.

Do khari and Wade still own booster juice together?

Check out: ‘We have to make tough decisions,’ says B.C. Lions GM Buono of coach Benevides...

 

There were plenty of questions, few concrete answers and now room for speculation as Lions head coach Mike Benevides and GM Wally Buono addressed reporters in the wake of Sunday’s disastrous B.C. Lions playoff loss to the Montreal Alouettes.

It was time to “face the music,” said Buono.

The future of  Benevides and quarterback Travis Lulay, who has dealt with recurring right-shoulder problems in each of the last three seasons, is undecided.....

Refreshing candor from the BC coach and GM. I wish we had more of that here instead of vague comments.

Wally's the best coach the Lions have, And he's the GM. Makes you wonder why he gave up the HC role when he meddles all the time. If he is not happy with Benny then Wally should fire him& take over as HC again. 

2014 Lions = 1996 Bombers?

The parallels are there. In 1996, the Bombers brought in Kent Austin, who was clearly past his prime. He led the team to a 9-9 regular season and then suffered the CFL's most historically lopsided playoff loss to the Eskimos. The Bombers spent five years wandering the wilderness after that loss.

I wonder if this game signals the exit of the Lions from a good run in the league's top tier? It seems like they have to move on from Lulay and Kevin Glenn has a lot of miles on his odometer. Who do you rebuild around? Beck? Drew Tate?
