I was really on the Elizondo train earlier today, but I do wonder about another first-time head coach. That’s partially what keeps bringing me...

And the only winless coach? :)

I'm willing to bet that Thorpe would be the DC by title only in that scenario. They would also still need an OC, and I don't think they can afford...

So does that make Milanovich the only undefeated coach in EEFC history?

They both joined Montreal's staff in 2002. Jones joined as DL Coach for 2002 then was promoted to DC the following year and held that position until...

Good point about Milanovich. I could be wrong but I thought Thorpe was a branch off the Jones tree so maybe CJ would be comfortable handing the D...

If Jones was hired Thorpe would be as good as gone unless severance costs against FOPs cap made that impossible. Since finishing his first year in...

I don’t know. I think Milanovich could have been qualified to replace him too. He’s certainly well connected. I just don’t see the overlap in Jones...

I'm not sure BS has the guts to hire someone who could potentially replace him. I'd love Jones though, and maybe he and Thorpe can work together....

Hervey and Jones clashed. Everyone blamed Jones being the "bad guy"... I think Hervey should have some of that light shone on him. Also...

Jones has been known as a mercernary, egomaniac or control freak and someone who acts in his own self interest, but there was some clear tampering...

If they hire Thorpe or Jones, they'd still have the problem of needing and OC. With Jones I know he can do the HC job and do it well. With Thorpe,...

There's nothing about Dickenson's history to date that would lend one to think the Stamps would hit the skids like that. If that were to happen it...

I'm quite happy with Thorpe or Jones. But I'll make another point in CJ's favour. Lots of people on here are not fans of BS, having a guy in CJ in...

I'm on the fence when it comes to Chris Jones as you know if he comes it isn't a long term thing but then again what in the CFL is a long term thing?...

I'd see it moreso right now that he's down on his knees looking for the opportunity as his NFL option fell apart quickly, and basically every coach...

Well this sucks. Is this official or just rumour at this point? I’d take CJ back in a heartbeat.

Where are you seeing their on the brink of extinction???

Got a promotion (to GM) and got to secure the financials for his assistants. Can't fault a guy for that. Not to mention we went from 4-14 to 12-6...

They do, but Milanovich was likely one of the only ones in Edmonton that still was getting paid and able to do so. I get the uncertainty, but he...

Before Sean Paynton left Dallas for New Orleans he was making $1M as QB coach with the Cowboys. That's an extreme example. In the same article they...

HOWS EVERYBODY? sorry for yelling. Its been a loooong time since ive checked in on here. Still love you all and havent forgotten this place,...

https://www.sapling.com/12036435/salary-quarterback-coach Whether Milanovich would be up there, I don't know... but given his record, he sure...

True

I’d love Jones back to but that would be the end to Thorpe as it would just not work with both on the staff

I think Elks or Golden Eagles are fine. Elks is a bit boring, but it's unique. Golden Eagles does seem too common, but it's more interesting than...

It really makes you wonder how much a QB coach in the NFL makes compared to an HC here... As for the pay, I'm not begrudging him for having mouths...

I would LOVE Jones back here even tho he screwed us around the last time ,he would not have the power he had with the green and whites but I’m...

Remember that the Esks staff didn't have extensions tabled to them or discussions and had pay withheld prior to the Regina exodus. Thats not on CJ. ...

It's a COVID year... yeah, Milanovich never coached a game for us, but he did commit to do so, and would have done it if there had been games for him...
