A few of the new recruits, Stanley Berryhill III, Devon Ravenel, and Ed Lee have all been timed at 4.45 in the 40. For what it's worth.

Re: RIP Craig Roh
Really sad news. Super nice guy. Started his career as a defensive end with the Leos but I thought really came into his own with the Bombers.
Gone far too soon. RIP.

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
Sounded earlier there was zero interest in bringing Lucky back but he might be just the guy they need while waiting on Hatcher. Qualifies as a marketable personality if nothing else although it seems he may not be a Rick Campbell favorite similar to the way Loucheiz Purifoy was . He does know the p...

Re: 2024 CFL draft (Lion's picks)
I have not seen a depth chart but I believe it's Greene's job to lose at safety. He acquitted himself very well on Teams and admirably filled in for Mauger at safety last year. I would expect Charlie Ringland to be #2 on the depth chart at safety but I have not seen anything on this. I would expect ...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
A mild aside here while we're talking about BCFC (it is the off-season after all). Do our 50/50 sales at Lions games go to this league, high school football, or the BCPFA (or some combination of all minor and amateur football in BC)? More from a standpoint of curiosity. I don't really care, just as ...

Eric Guthrie - The Canadian Rifle
Sad to learn that one of our Canadian quarterbacks and former Lions, Eric Guthrie passed away today (February 17, 2024) at 9:00am according to a post on Facebook. RIP.
Eric was a former Meriloma who went on to become a first-team All-Big Sky Conference at Boise State.

Re: Woody Baron & Quincy Mauger released
The jury is out on Stove Richardson. 2 achilles injuries. Exactly. I am not putting all my eggs in the Stove Richardson basket just yet. Two and half years is a long time to be out of football, coming off two Achilles injuries to boot. It will be a pleasant surprise for me if he comes back to form,...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
Whoa! According to Farhan the Lions offered Oliveira a three-year escalating deal starting at $250,000 and it took Bombers president Wade Miller’s involvement to ultimately keep him in Winnipeg. That must have been money allocated for Betts right? Wow. It's really odd because I had this sneaking fe...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
All true, Hambone. But the larger point is the guy knows how to sling the ball. Yes, some late season brain fog (passes that shouldn't have been thrown) but I still maintain he is the best pure passer of the FA bunch. He didn't have nearly the weapons at his disposal in Sask that he would have here....

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
Shiltz is a competent back-up QB who can move the offense and put up some points. He has limitations but is a sound choice as a #2. Cornelius's reputation took a hit last season but it really was a tire fire in Edmonton and I think he tried to do too much (or too much was expected of him). I believe...

Re: Carl Weathers (Jan. 14, 1948 – Feb. 1, 2024)
RIP. Carl was signed to a five-day trial by the Leos on 9/28/71. According to author John Wirtanen in his book, "Thrown To The Lions" (2000), "His sense of humor was infectious and contagious. He had you on the edge of your seat, or in the aisles fighting back tears." "Carl ...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
Ka'Deem Carey has always been one of my favourite backs to watch. Incredible balance and vision. Very tough to bring down in the open field. But I would think long and hard before bringing in a 31-year old running back (even though he will only have been 2 years removed from a 1,088 yard season and ...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
I have the feeling that Edmonton would offer Betts the crazy money ($300K) to go back there.
I do believe he wants to stay in BC from interviews I heard last year, so I am hopeful that $260K-$265K + incentives would get it done.

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
I certainly don't mind the Leos expressing interest in Streveler because it drives up the price a bit for the Bombers. :roar: But realistically, I think I would rather put a different experienced (slightly less expensive and lower profile) pivot behind VA given our reluctance to switch QBs. Last thi...
