On a one year deal, why not?  We'll see what he can do.

Why not? Can it really get any worse?

As long as it's not Hogan, I am OK.

Condell, Jackson or LaPolice. Heck, I will welcome back Harris.

Not a chance Lapo is our next OC—he's got too many irons in the football fire to confine himself to being OC

He's getting paid more for a cushy gig as an analyst, and his job isn't on the line every week depending if a team loses.  Zero chance he goes back to coaching unless he loses that analyst gig, or goes mental and takes a pay cut and wants more stress in his life.

Condell as OC. Harris as RB coach. Jackson as QB coach.

I really just hope Miller being out of the picture speeds along this process. Other teams are starting to sign their FAs and we need to get our guy in place, discuss roster construction within the context of his offence, and start putting things into place before Christmas.
My wife is amazing!

Almost 3 weeks since the GC was played and Walters hasn't used left-over 2025 SMS to re-up anyone, it's either already spent and he's waiting on the 2026 budget, or they'll announce a few signings together just before they shut down for Christmas.

Curious if they have a program to promote season ticket sales for stocking stuffers?

He's also the coach of the Canadian Men's flag football team which is trying to earn a berth in the Olympics.

Re-signed and announced are not necessarily the same thing. Bombers tend to make announcements a little later than just after a re-signing.
One game at a time.

Totally agree. He is a big deal on the TSN panel and provides the offensive insight none of the other panel members can do, and he does it with such excitement and passion. Double that down for the flag football HC gig he's got a chance to go to the Olympics, which would be a nice career accomplishment, exactly ZERO chance of him restricting himself to a high pressure, short life span OC job.

To be fair, he already left TSN before when he came back to be our OC. He wanted to be a coach.

Now, he may not feel the same way way anymore, but he's already done it once so there's obviously the chance that he would do so again under the right circumstances.
