OL Quinn Everett is not listed on the Bombers roster anymore. Any scoop if he is released or not?

Rainy and foggy, just the way I left ya Halifax. Feels good to be back.

He has eligibility left in CIS. Probably heading back to play.

What position does he play ... where did we draft him.... signed Clueless

Played Dline in college but Bombers are converting him to Oline.

Do we still retain his rights?

Do we know if he'll be playing OL or DL this year in university?

So, question I had was why didn't we do that with Jade Etienne? Send him back to the U of S to play & develop instead of wasting a roster spot for him his rookie season? Seems that was the big mistake with him.

Canadian depth and Lapo thinking he would develop better here. 

 

Head coach Paul LaPolice believes he’d develop better in Winnipeg but didn’t close the door on Etienne going back to the Huskies.

 

“We haven’t crossed that bridge yet,” LaPolice said. “We’ll keep seeing how our numbers are.”

Ultimately probably cost Etienne his career. He needed more time to develop physically & mentally. Playing, having success in the CIS AFTER he was drafted, hitting the weight room hard at the U of S all through 2011 instead of being lost on the Bombers PR would have made more sense. But what's the expression? Hindsight is 50/50...

he served his purpose. he will be known as the 'Bombers first round bust who gave them Willy'
