Atomic Posted December 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 My vote goes to Mike Benevides because he is experienced running a CFL defence and also has head coaching experience, and has worked extensively with Wally Buono.

TBURGESS Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I voted for Benevides too. Lots of great experience and BC's defenses have been way above average in the last few years. iso_55 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Benevides would make it easier to fire O'Shea should the scenario ever arise. I wonder if O'Shea could see him as a potential threat, or if he only cares about winning. If it's only about winning, I think Benevides is the obvious choice.

turtlefan Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I voted for Benevides because of his experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Mike Benevides is it! For the only reason, I like both coordinator (OC/DC) to have the same initials. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Cool! Looks like it's a consensus. So when is the presser to announce Benevides as DC??? Mark F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Does anyone know if Bene. was in town for a meeting? I know Claybrooks was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueandgold Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I'd be happy with Benevides, Claybrooks or Hall myself, and even Kavis Reed would be an improvement over Etch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 my preference would be Benevides, Hall, Claybrooks, Miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Claybrooks because new blood is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Blue Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I hate Benevides, but attempting to separate that I think he's overrated a bit. With Wally as HC and Benevides as DC he was in a great situation and worked with a strong group of defensive players often. I like Hall and could see Osh liking his supposedly quiet style. Claybrooks intrigues me but I'm a fan of Barron Miles too. I'd be happy with any of the three but I would go Hall-Claybrooks-Miles.

iso_55 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Benny has two years left on his contract. Why wouldn't he just sit back & relax for this season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Benny has two years left on his contract. Why wouldn't he just sit back & relax for this season? Because he doesn't. Wally had an out clause in the contract where if Bene was fired by Dec 15 the remaining 2 years are void. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBieber Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Benevides got a severance package for 6 months according to Ed Tait, but extension didn't kick in until December 15 as gbill stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iso_55 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 The Blue Bombers have commissioned an official poll on this website to determine who the next DC will be. My thoughts exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan007 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I chose Hall, but I'd take Benevides too. The difference in my preference between the two is very minimal. Claybrooks is a rookie, so on one hand you're taking a chance, on the other he's had a lot of time getting to know how Stubler runs his D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweep the leg Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Benevedes, Claybrooks, Hall Claybrooks was in line to be Calgary's DC last season until Stubler became available and he's the heir apparent when he retires. I like anybody that Huff likes. Blue-urns 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearpants Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 What... nobody voted for Greg Marshall??? My vote is Benevides... simply cuz BC has had a very good D for a long time... I also like Richie Hall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I would be very static if the Bombers land both Benevides and Hall Benevides as DC and Hall as (Asst) ST Coordinator and DBs Not gonna happen though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
