Posted January 27, 20178 yr comment_245520 kind of an interesting look into what Lapo's working on right now ... http://www.bluebombers.com/2017/01/27/looking-deeper-o-analysis/
January 28, 20178 yr comment_245593 interesting read. I thought last year there was an interview with Walters that said something along the line of the offseason basically goes in in cycle with the coaches, this time of the year the coaches would be getting together to discuss FA and who/what they need/want, after that they go through piles of film on potential draftees, then work mini camps after the draft. I could have made this all up of course in a dream Edited January 28, 20178 yr by Taynted_Fayth
January 28, 20178 yr comment_245645 Cool article. I wonder how effectively they can measure variables. Such as: a defensive player making an outstanding play that does not usually get made. Or, a certain play is very effective but a certain opposing D is adept at stopping it, perhaps due to their skill set.

January 29, 20178 yr comment_245709 Believe there is a deadline approaching where other teams coaches are off limits.
January 29, 20178 yr comment_245710 Most teams ask their Asst's to commit to the next season by the end of January or sooner. Would the WBB's hold him back if he's offered a HC job? I doubt it. That's not how they operate. However, I think Lapo has a good thing going in Winnipeg and he knows it. Plus Toronto needs to make a big splash personnel wise and I don't think Lapo fits the bill. They need a big name who will bring back the crowds. That's why I think they'll through a ton of money at Trestman. To me it makes the most sense.
January 29, 20178 yr comment_245712 It's league mandated after last years Redblacks and Eskimo arguement over Maas

Once the deadline rolls around, everyone knows that the team is under no obligation whatsoever to give permission. Edited January 30, 20178 yr by WBBFanWest

So no team can poach someone on a coaching staff after Jan 31?... under any circumstances?.... if Argos GM Jim Popp (I don't know just seems to make sense ) calls up Wade Miller and asks to speak with LaPo about the HC job, can Wade allow that... or is the call not even allowed?

Not allowed - won't be happening. They'll be hiring either from within, or someone not currently coaching. Guaranteed.
January 31, 20178 yr comment_246009 I suspect that this year the Argos will basically know that it's a write off and just get a place holder until they can do a proper search next season. At least that's what would be smart if you ask me. How do you bring everything together this close to the season when you can't pick people from other teams? Take a knee this year and make next year their focus.

As I understand it he's not allowed to call Wade Miller regardless of the date - he has to call the league first.
