IC Khari Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) Is it because of his stupid agent, or the stupid contract Poop signed him to, or both, that no one has taken a flyer on him to play this year? I know he's now supposedly waiting on NFL opportunities, but in reality, his best chance to make money consistently as a ratio breaking LB is in Canada. Too bad easy NFL money has become more important to the kid, I liked his attitude when he was here, it's changed it seems. Oh well time for another tour ...

ediger Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) I think his agent is screwing him. Definitely doesn't have Henoc's best interests in mind. I mean, the guy could easily carve out a respectable CFL career. Play for 10 years or so, make a couple million along the way. Instead in seems like his agent is banking on the big payday that quite frankly, I don't ever see coming.

Floyd Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Muamba is 27... love to sign him in the off-season to a 3 year deal, this year must be his last shot at NFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Engelwood Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 I don't think the NFL will look at him as he is one year away from pension. That is more owners money going away. IC Khari 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty Liver Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 It's now or never for Henoc, next year doesn't exist. Either he has NFL tryouts already lined up for this coming season or he'd better find himself a roster spot in the CFL and make the best of it. Sitting out a year isn't going to improve his football marketability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IC Khari Posted May 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) We don't need him either with our LB core and ratio options, especially for what they (him and his agent) are asking.

The guy isn't a Bomber anymore & he really rubbed teams & fans the wrong way last season with his so called tour. If he never plays again, I wouldn't care.

I don't, but one would think it would at least be comparable to his Als contract. That and the fact he's going back to the NFL route, indicates to me it's more than what CFL teams are willing to pay ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripper Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Muamba, scheduled to earn $230,000 in 2016, was owed another bonus payment of $23,000 in April followed by an additional $23,000 when he reported to training camp at the end of May — provided he passed his physical. That’s a total of $106,000 he would have received before playing a game for a team working with a $5.1-million salary cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Could care less about Henoc...He gave us the finger on his last royal rental tour and that was enough for me...After the way the club treated him (more than fair as far as I'm concerned)and he wouldn't even give us the time of day and signs with Poop and the poutine boys....See ya ..have a nice career somewhere else Henoc.

IC Khari Posted May 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) Just to clarify, I could care less about Henoc as well , just thought his case was interesting, and just another IMO of someone blowing their career path by listening to the wrong person (agent in this case). It will be interesting to see what happens with St. John in Sask. (as I hear he has the same agent as Henoc). I assume he will sign.

Noeller Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Just to clarify, I COULDN'T care less about Henoc...because I don't care at all. Apparently a lot of you still really care about him...

Totally agree. I have no use for him either. Mind blowing that someone would rather not get paid at all and sit at home. One thing that is a shame is its nice to see the good players playing in the league, and not have this BS going on. IC Khari 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only posted that so people could get a idea of what he was making, and likely more or less what he may be looking for. When he is ready to play for 175k he will get a shot somewhere likely.

johnzo Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Would love to have Henoc back. All players are mercenaries, no use in pretending otherwise. I know nothing about agenting or managing a football team, but I wonder if he's waiting to be a midseason desperation signing. Blue-urns 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
