Taman and Chamblin Fired

Strong chance Taman will be our GM as early as mid-next season. 

 

Source? None. Just years of watching this regime make lateral moves. And Taman is still a media fan boy around here. 

 

You wait, it will be "Taman will have to accept a full time scouting dep't and assistance in the draft. Club is considering talking to Duane Forde for that role." (Forde doesn't return call).

No to Taman for sure, The riders Canadian Content is lacking big time, they actually might have worse Canadian depth than we do. No to Taman indeed. Why so he can trade picks for aging veterans, i don't get people wanting Taman to come back here, Tillman i understand but Taman? Been there done that, Think we lack Canadian talent now? Hire taman and it will get worse.

Guy was a hell of a bird dog tho. Found some of the best Imp talent that clubs ever seen. Combine that with Walters work at the draft.....problem again tho is trading picks so we have nothing to draft with.

 

Did he? That was what, 15 years ago? Then what did he do in SK?

 

There was a rumor that much of his highly regarded "birddogging" with the Bombers was simply following up leads (Ryland Wickman introduced him to Charles Roberts) and of course, Dave Ritchie. 

 

The guy is done.

Yeah but every GM does that. No CFL team has that extensive a scouting network. That's why guys like Tillman do have success, they have big networks and lots of connections to follow up leads from. How do you think Joe Mack was able to bring in more talent from the states? Better connected.

BS he was a hell of a bird dog. You want a hell of a bird dog, Murphy, Tillman, Paul Jones.

 

 

I really, really hope SK signs Tillman so we can go after Murphy in a years time.
