Rich 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. stat - ic - lacking in movement, action, or change, especially in a way viewed as undesirable or uninteresting. Are you sure you wouldn't be jumping up and down with excitement? SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Any thoughts that MOS may be hesitant to bring in an experienced co-ordinator with time as HC, for fear of having a potential successor looking over his shoulder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are you saying O'Shea brought in coaches that are kinda good but not that good? Cuz thats a pretty stupid way of going about hiring coaches that are supposed to help you win... No?

Goalie Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I went with Claybrooks, heir apparent to stubler, a year under stubler, Calgarys D was very good and i wonder because BC has had such a strong D for a long time, if it's more the players than the coaches, BC was very good this year and Washington was the DC. I dunno, i'd rather give it to an up and coming young mind than going for a guy who was just fired. In related news tho, bombers were granted permission to speak to Hall by sask.

mbrg 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. It's a joke.

sweep the leg Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Per Lawless the Bombers have spoken to Benevedes already. They have also asked the Riders for permission to speak to Hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well ya i think we all know and understand that... but your answer was they have proven they cant or wouldnt take anyones jobs as to why it wouldnt make any difference if guys have been HCs before. I agree and think your answer now is more true then what you said before. He didnt hire them because they had proven they cant take anyones jobs.... they were hired more likely because he was limited and like you said and i agree that others just didnt want to come here.

iso_55 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. Being a DL coach under Stubler will only make him a more complete coach. That was Huff's reasoning. Felt it would be good for Claybrooks. He's right.

mbrg Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Which guy? Eh, I don't care. People will be complaining after the first first down against the Bombers. Separating scheme from personnel is next to impossible anyways, talented guys will make a bad scheme look good and lesser players will make a decent scheme look flawed. With the secondary we have to build off of here any of these guys should be in a position to have a top 4 defence with just a couple of new bodies in the front 7. The Lions have a defence I'd like to have, so what the hey, Benevides I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those two boys alone would make a lot of coaches look better than they are. That being said- I would be cautiously optimistic if we got Bene. DR.

WBBFanWest Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 And I voted for Benevides because I'm tired of seeing the Bombers bring in rookies to see if they're ready to make the leap to the next level.

What role did he have in making those players into the beasts they are? Guys who wind up having successful players around them all the time probably have a pretty big hand in making said players better. Guy did earn himself a head coaching role for his work with defenses so I don't think he's someone who just rides coattails of players.

Goalie Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Hall was the defensive coordinator in sask last year, sask like us were ranked in the bottom 3 in points given up. Not sure i like Hall, Benevides? on the fence really, if it's him cool, if not that's ok with me too. Really do want to see what some young minds can do, Claybrooks is definitely interesting. People talk about bringing in guys with no experience but really who was the last guy we gave a shot to that didn't have much experience? Creehan? And that was under tim burke so really... prior to that? I can't really think of the guy. We seem to have gone a bit of a veteran DC route before, more so rookie head coaches. Burke, Etch... both experience DC's. Regardless, Creehan was the only guy that wasn't. I don't care if the guy has experience or not, sometimes experience is a bad thing as seen with etch, sometimes it's a good thing. Sometimes being a rookie DC is a bad thing, sometimes in the case of guys like Thorpe,Steinhauer,Washington it's a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Should the Bombers asked Huff permission to speak to Stubler for the DC position? then maybe throw in the Asst HC title to make it a promotion. Because if Huff doesn't want to lose Claybrooks, making him the DC will keep him in Calgary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dude isn't young anymore, and his wife probably wants to be around the grand kids and the family while he's coaching 10-12 hours a day. iso_55 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure i like Hall, Benevides? Separating players from scheme makes it hard to draw conclusions. The Riders were pretty bad defending the pass but pretty good against the run. We have the makings of a very good secondary. So hypothetically does Hall benefit from our good secondary or ruin our secondary with bad schemes? Right now that's unknowable.
