I would be amazed if the Bombers do too- its a rarity in the CFL.

They interviewed for his replacement without firing him and every other opening closed by the time they fired him. Chamblin wouldn't have necessarily been a candidate but who knows. He's certainly had more success as a head coach than others who were hired. They basically did the same to Chapdelaine, who's yanking the chains over there, Murphy or Pinball?

He made a trade that made sense at the same time he tapped up a player. I put Pinball way down on the list of people I "thank" for this Grey Cup. At least twenty spots below Dancin' Gabe and six above Durant for helping us find Streveler.
December 13, 20195 yr comment_453587 Dinwiddie seems really rushed as a HC. It could work, but man he is not a guy id want to count on to make the play offs this year or next. The way the argos went about this is really poor, and reflects badly on them. It would have been easy to clean house or even just take time to decide. But every thing out of TO was pro chamblin staying. Milanovich, im kind of surprised he came back. Im kind of surprised hes right back to being a HC too. This off season was shaping up to be really interesting and the front office / coaching decisions alone have been a bit wild. Its nice for once not to have a coach thats bad for the league / makes the league look bad. Once hervey is toast the purge should be complete. Right now Id put the chance that buck becomes our OC at 80%. With a small chance they try for some one like chapdelaine or condell as a OC/ast HC. I wouldnt mind it if they brought back bob dyce as an ast OC to buck. But I think hes trending towards higher jobs.

December 13, 20195 yr comment_453599 McAdoo is fine as an OC but they'll let Buck run his own show. He's earned it.

Re: Dinwiddie/Toronto One of the things Mike O'Shea spoke of when reflecting on his work here was how they started to turn things around. That they wanted to learn from successful organizations, validate their processes and ours, understand "why" we or they do things certain ways. Dinwiddie may turn out to be a great hire for Toronto, but the process to landing him seems quite flawed. I think that reflects poorly on the organization and also indicates that they probably aren't doing the things O'Shea referenced. Don't get me wrong: I would absolutely take the unknown of Dinwiddie over the known in Chamblin, but they royally screwed Chamblin. Those are the types of things noticed by other coaches, players and management around the league. It may not matter at all if Dinwiddie becomes the next great head coach, but we'll see...
December 13, 20195 yr comment_453602 I wouldn't mind seeing Buck bumped up to OC..and Damon Allen brought on board as QB/receivers coach rtpe role..and help in game planning like Buck was for Lapo He wants to get into coaching..obviously has ties with Osh as a former teammate and would be good for a guy like Strev...If i was Walter's and Osh..that's what I would be working on..and what better team to join than defending Grey Cup champs

December 13, 20195 yr comment_453616 yeah there was talk recently that Allen wanted to get into coaching. Not sure how successful he would be, but who knows. I am excited to give Pierce a try. He's worked his way to the position.
December 13, 20195 yr comment_453617 Allen has basically been begging for someone to give him a job but that guy has always seemed way too arrogant for my liking. He thinks very highly of himself. Remember when he wasn't a first ballot HOFer (as opposed to a first ballot Hofer, which our pal @Mark H.Is) and he was all fired up about it and quoting all his statistics? Oi vey. I dint like a personality like that being involved. Now, as Geebrr suggested..... Ricky Ray... That's a name I could get behind.

December 13, 20195 yr comment_453702 Osh will be here far past 2022. He said himself that the boats are burned.
December 13, 20195 yr comment_453751 Suddenly, with this sweeping statement, Dinwiddie doesn’t sound so blue-eyed-dreamy anymore..
