Popp/Chamblin Staying or Going?

[doubleblue]

I'd be surprised if Chamblin is back next year.

His body language in the last couple of games kind of looks like he knows he toast. Also the fact they asked him if he would come back as the DC only is very telling.

Hire Condel as his replacement and let him do his job this time around.

Maybe he could bring Masoli with him👍

I hope that he is not.

The only person that asked him if he’d return as DC was Frank Z. The king of the stupid question.

Yes for Condel and while we are stripping the Cats, hire Reinbold as he is the best ST coach in the league.

And why would Reinbold leave a place he loves being for a lateral position move? It’s illogical to think there is even a possibility that would happen.

Hamilton are running a good program at this time, no guarantee Condell would be interested in Toronto but worth a call after the season ends.

If the HC position opens in Toronto, I would be surprised if A) Condell was not interested B) If he would not be brought in for at least an interveiw

100% guaranteed many potential candidates will be contacted.

Yes, maybe so.
But the last two seasons have not been normal and the new manangement team must think outside the box to get this train wreck back on the tracks.
Hiring O'Shea or Lapolice would be a great beginning for the HC position.

I am obviously no fan of FZ (and in fact my displeasure with his work has grown again this season), but given the speculation and rumours that abounded after Popp was replaced by Pinball, the question needed to be asked. While Chamblin answered as I would have expected, sometimes individuals give surprising and illuminating answers.

[paulwoods13]

Evidently no changes before next week at the earliest.

This might mean no announcements until after Grey Cup, depending on the league's desire to enforce the "no bad-news distractions" rule of recent seasons.

I like Frank. I hope that's ok. At least he gives us Football news almost everyday and the reason I buy the Toronto Sun.

Disagree. It was a useless question in which anyone else I the scrum could have answered the same way Chamblin did. Asking a question for which there will only be one answer is a waste of everyone’s time.

But there isn't just one answer to any question. Sometimes people surprise you with their answers.

With Rick Campbell apparently getting fired in Ottawa, does he become a candidate for a job here? He always struck me as a good head coach and the kind of guy who would last years in this league.

CBC reporting that he's chosen not to return and has not been fired.

Yeah, I see now it is reported to be his decision. I wonder if the Redblacks would prevent him from coaching elsewhere, assuming he had another year on his contract in Ottawa. Edm seems the most likely destination for him, assuming Maas gets whacked.
