O'Shea Granted Permission to Interview with Argos

[Blue In BC]

O'Shea seen at the airport getting ready for his return flight from Toronto.  If he is leaving Winnipeg we should hear on Monday. Depends whether the Argos want to interview 2 or 3 more candidates I suppose.

I m thinking its a done deal, but I also think they'd interview Orlando Steinhauer as well.

there is a league media ban on announcements from Thursday to Monday to give the Cup full limelight, I am thinking we hear either tonight or Monday. If Argos woo MOS away from us, which I think they will, I'd be calling Orlando asap

If it was a done deal, as you say, O'Shea would likely hang around TO today for an official announcement by the Argos.

Pretty sure the CFL had a ban on media releases leading up to the GC, the conjecture is distracting from the event. Ottawa should have held their tongue on the Dinwiddie hire till after the game, that move got the ball rolling.

Did the CFLPA do away with their player survey rating their own teams and facilities or does that come out after the GC?

True. Maybe he wanted to discuss with his family before formally pulling the trigger but you think he would have done that before he jumped on the plane for the interview.

O'Shea has 3 kids, pretty sure they're all enrolled in post secondary education in Wpg, and if so chances are they still live at home.  Thanks Dad!

hamilton is sniffing around as well.  asking for permission to talk to MOS and DM.

we have an offer tendered to MOS

from naylor

Argos are not the only team, besides Winnipeg, interested in O'Shea. The @Ticats have requested permission to speak to both O'Shea and @Wpg_BlueBombers assistant GM Danny McManus. Meanwhile O'Shea has an offer on the table in Winnipeg. #CFL

Ti-Cats are interested in hiring a GM to replace Goveia, Danny Mac would be the logical choice if he's willing to commit to living in Hamilton.

Danny won't leave his cozy Florida.

I guess MOS is gonna enjoying all the $1000 steak diners he can until making a decision lol

I think he is finding out how good he has it here if you ask me.

Last I heard his son was following in his footsteps and was attending University of Guelph and is part of their football program. Not being able to see his son play would eat away at me, and even though that's short term, it's likely he graduates and gets a job in southern Ontario, so kids are moving back to the mother land, MOS will follow.

nobody wants to talk to Kyle??

After this past off season failures, I can see why. MOS would have worked closely with Walters and ted g when he was here, I can see MOS getting an interview for the GM position. Given Danny Mac s reluctance to leave Florida, I don't see that changing so maybe MOS gets the GM position and Danny Mac the assistant GM position??

Things look dark in bomberville, very dark.

His son was playing for the Bisons up until last season but he's not on their roster this year, neither is their female kicker. Noticed they added a young receiver to their roster this year, Lawson Walters 6'-0" 180 lbs, with black hair, what are the odds?
