2 time big sky coach of the year, the best qb coach in the biggest cfl qb pipeline and the best team in that pipeline.
I’d say this is the biggest fresh to the cfl coaching addition the league has seen in a long time.
The guy was an OC at Cal and Arizona State. He head-coached some mid-major programs. Not exactly a big-time resume. Good get for Calgary but not exactly stealing him.
Stats: 42-23-4 @ 44-22-5

Game Notes:
- Vilardi in regular jersey in early morning skate
- Jets begin 5 game homestand
You would think with his resume there would be other opportunities with another college in the US. Hell i believe even a big high school coach in the US makes good coin no? Just seems like a step back ,but maybe there is a promise of HC position like it has been stated here...
Have to agree about the mayor mcheese talent he has to work with....The ol saying goes, you can't make a big mac out of a cheese burger....just ask the clown at rotten ronnie's....Kidding aside, I think Baldwin has his eyes on a bigger prize in Cal. eventually...good addition to the league
I actually saw Villardi at the rec room here in Winnipeg. I just let him be but he looked fine and probably was just looking for an escape.
I really hope he can come back and inject some firepower into this anemic power play. You're right though, good teams dig deep and find ways to win...
last night I finally got around to the new Road House (it's not gonna change the world, but it was fun...) and The Iron Claw (really powerful.... incredibly sad family legacy). Capped it with a documentary on Netflix about the making of the "We Are The World" song back in the 80s... really interesting story behind that and a neat look at Pop music at that time. Definitely recommend all three...
Could be a strong glue guy for us. Or maybe a secret agent, he should wear 00 for sure.
He looks like a great get though. 30 pass knock downs and 10 picks in college. Was a machine in ravens camp a few years ago. Made decent nfl money over his few years. Returned punts a bit too. Looks like a strong one on one tackler and a big knack for play making. Should be a guy to keep an eye on especially in rookie camp.
