Not surprised.  Too bad for him with masoli getting hurt but he made some big errors for not being a rookie HC.  Should have hired Khari as OC instead of trying to do it all.

Wow could not even make it through the year.

They could done that a couple weeks ago.

He just is not HC material. Curious to see where he resurfaces?

A nice guy who is a good coordinator but struggled as a head coach. If Massoli doesn't get hurt he probably still has a job. Craig Dickenson is now the coach on the hot seat.

I like that idea

Khari will be the next Ottawa's Head Coach.

[GOLDMEMBER]

He won?t have a problem finding another job.

Don't you need to give a coach three years to make the playoffs if they inherit a bad team or does that only apply to MOS, after applying 20-20 hindsight?

I thought they would have waited until,the end of the season but this was inevitable. The man was a terrible head coach.

Who is going to be their interim OC??

When you know you know...there is no formula and no team or situation is the same. 

Nice try though.

His record as a head coach is 22-50 and those numbers speak for themselves....albeit he did get us to the Grey Cup in one of those years as our head coach.    Good luck to him and he will end up somewhere in the CFL....maybe back with the Riders after they clean house management wise!

It was Desjardins who hired Lapo though, not Burke.

The Bombers weren't getting worse under MOS, they were building something. Lapo looks like a deer in the headlights as a coach and he runs the same stupid dunk passes for short yardage we did with Nichols.

You're applying 20-20 hindsight there. MOS' first two seasons were 7 wins, then 5 wins & he didn't lose his starting QB in week 3.
