Mr. Perfect Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 gary lawless @garylawless 6m6 minutes ago Can report #bombers are closing in on deal with Richie Hall to become DC. Mike Benevides still in picture but if Hall wants job, likely his gary lawless @garylawless 5m5 minutes ago Contract talks between #bombers and Richie Hall continue. Mike Benevides still talking with Mike O'Shea but Hall is leading candidate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holoman Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 I'd prefer Benevides, but I can't complain too much about Hall Blueandgold, blueandgoldguy and SPuDS 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iso_55 Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Everyone seems to really like DeVonne Claybrooks as a DC but he's less than 3 seasons away from being a player. I think he needs to coach DL under Rich Stubler for another few years before he will be ready to be a coordinator. As much as he's an up & comer, I'd be uncomfortable giving a rookie DC a chance. I like Mark Washington in BC. It'll be interesting to see if Jeff Tedford brings him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweep the leg Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Although Hall is third on my list of wanted DCs, I'm happy with any of Claybrooks, Benevedes, or Hall being hired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Just reading up on Hall's accomplishments. Very impressive. We'll be in good hands if he is in fact named DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Benevides or Hall. That's all I care. Claybrooks and Washington are not going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atomic Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 I assume Pat Tracy is back next season? Haven't heard anything to the contrary.

Our genius media members didn't find it to be a worthy question to ask O'Shea at the last press conference. Exactly what I was thinking. Pretty sure half ghe media who follow the Bombers don't even know who Pat Tracy is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 I assume Pat Tracy is back next season? He's the first guy and one of the only three guys (Etch and Wylie are the other two) that O'Shea brought in. I strongly believe he's not going anywhere.

Dan has been with Wally for 15 years. As was Chapdelaine & Benevides going back to their days in Calgary. Pretty clear that Tedford is hiring the staff he wants.

Stickem Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 IF it's Hall, I'm a happy camper. His defences have been solid both in Sask and Edm.. Thought to be a little too conservative sometimes but you can't deny he has the credentials. He'll have our D playing to it's potential and stay away from the Etch-a-sketch shenanigans of the last year. Looking forward to see another well seasoned CFL coach come on board.
