Sure - I suppose Nill could be considered a CIS GOB type; and maybe not surprising that he would be hired again there somewhere, as he has built 3 National Championship teams in his time there. Obviously - college ball is different than the pros though - (players only able to stay a max 5 years; recruiting is a whole different animal for building a roster; less paid coaches / quite limited budgets in CIS ball, etc.).

CFL GOB is a different kettle of fish; but a similar sub-species i guess ? ;o)

And you're also forgetting about my other criterion for qualifying for the CFL GOB club (aside from same old guys getting recycled /re-hired as key decision makers); and that would be same old offence - mostly pass play calling (70% + most of the time); QB always in shot-gun; one simple basic run play to the one back; little to any use of a real tight end or a fullback anymore. And some CIS offences might be headed to copy-cat the CFL same old GOB offensive ways, but there are still a lot of teams who use plenty of ground game and more diversity on offence.

But when ALL (20 some; not just 9) CIS teams feature that same old offence + only hire key decision makers who have recently been with another team in their league, then you could help me form/name a CIS football GOB club.

Same old/ same old = a hallmark of the GOBs. Not the Blues Brothers, but the real Good Ole Boys ;o)
