No, but there will be one hair tackle.

I think he gets one to prove a mistake was made by not re signing him. Anger and ego are great motivators

Would have been nice to see Lucky Whitehead returning for us. Head to head with the guy who squeezed him off the roster here way back when. Also the hair tackle factor would be roughly equal.

So, you want a guy that the opponent beat out 5 years ago to be our returner?

Also, no.  The dreaded hair tackles of Grant are going to outnumber Lucky 5 to 1, I'm abraid to say...

I do! Lucky has been elite in his own right. Kase... not so much. MOS seems really high on him though.

You are right, Lucky *has been* elite, but right now, he's on the PR of a team that desperately needs a good return game and a good WR. 

Lucky didn't get a sniff in FA, and got brought off the couch to our PR when the sky was falling, and hasn't been able to impress enough to get an AR shot over an unproven rookie, with a coach that everyone complains loves his vets too much.

Sorry, but Lucky's time may have passed...

Grant is 31 in Nov. Whitehead just turned 32 last month. Similar age. Going off the practice I saw this week, Lucky looked very good. I think it's just MOS wanting to give Kase another chance that we haven't seen Lucky play yet.

I'm curious. Where would you rank MOS among the CFL head coaches?

First.

Name another head coach who's gone to four straight Grey Cups.

Sorry but in professional sports it is what have you done for me today! Not what you did for me in the past! It is hard to accept at times but that is the way of professional sports.

HUGH CAMPBELL of the old Eskimos! That was WAY TOO EASY! ;) He made it to 6 straight to be precise (1977-1982). Lost the first one in a strange way (staple gate GC to Montreal), then won 5 in a row. You young kids need to learn your history!

Read it and weep....from WIKIPEDIA:

In 1977, Campbell was named head coach of the Edmonton Eskimos, where he took the Eskimos to the Grey Cup game in Montreal that first year but lost 41–6 in a major blowout on an icy field against the Montreal Alouettes. It was the last Grey Cup championship game coach Campbell would lose, as the Eskimos won the next five Grey Cup games, from 1978 through 1982, an all-time CFL consecutive championships record.
