With Buck Pierce, Steven Jyles and Alex Brink all out of the equation nursing injuries, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers added an import QB to the roster on Monday.Frank Wilczynski comes to the Bombers after playing in the college football circuit, including receiver for the University of Delaware before transferring to Rowan University.
The New Jersey native completed 117 passes on 207 attempts during his senior year, which led Rowan with 1,456 passing yards and 11 touchdowns.
The 6’1?, 190 lb Wilczynski was also the school’s top rusher racking up 793 yards and 15 touchdowns on 91 carries. He currently holds the school records for career rushing yards by a quarterback with 1,596 yards on 207 rushes and most rushing touchdowns in a season with 15.
He was also the first team selection of the New Jersey Athletic Conference All-Conference.
Well, he’s had limited QB experience, seems like he’s athletic and can run with the ball at least.
lol, this reminds me of one those old hockey stories where they have to pull someone out of the stands to finish the game.
I guess you can't expect much for a couple meaningless games to play out a season.
I see if Elliot goes down we’re running the NCAA-style run-only option offense
We should just sign some non-import to be our other QB. Nobody with any potential is going to come here just to play two games and get released, but maybe the chance to actually dress and maybe even play a couple series with a CFL team would be enticing to an NI guy…
:thup:
would love to see a N/I get his chance
Another warm body at the QB position, another name under anyones radar. Couldn’t make a UFL squad, not sure if that’s good or bad - Culpepper was their starter, but their 2 backups were Liam O’Hagan and Richard Bartel - another couple of who’s that? Too bad he didn’t make the squad, he coulda gotten the Bomber scoop from WBB alums Malveaux, Moreno, and Amey LOL.
Less than a day after signing quarterback Frank Wilczynski, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers have added another import QB to their practice roster.Justin Goltz comes to the Blue and Gold after being drafted by the Sacramento Mountain Lions of the UFL earlier this year, where he was eventually cut.
The Missouri native attended training camp with the Detroit Lions in 2009 and was a three-year starter at Occidental College, where he held an undefeated record as a senior.
Goltz completed 66% of his passes for 1,832 yards and added 599 yards rushing that year while also throwing for 11 touchdowns against just three interceptions and led the Tigers to their third SCIAC championship in four seasons.
In 2008, he was named the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Year.

Big boy, strong arm, worth a look.
Rowan University is a respected school, has put out some of the greatest pro players(especially QB`s) .
Never forget that memorable day when they defeated Notre Dame, or was it the team from Jackass Hil, anyway one or the other.
Ya the guy is a keeper, probably the next Dunigan
Big…strong…Mr Wonderful is on board…probably the next Bishop. :lol:
October 28, 2010 The Winnipeg Blue Bombers announced today they have added import quarterback Zac Champion to the practice roster.Champion (6-2, 192, Louisiana Tech, DOB: June 29, 1984 in Birmingham, Alabama) spent 2008 and 2009 with the BC Lions where he went 12 of 34 for 92 yards with two touchdowns and four interceptions. He was signed by the Calgary Stampeders during the offseason and played two preseason games where he threw for 94 yards while also rushing for a touchdown. Champion appeared in 31 games over five years at Louisiana Tech including the final 25 as the team’s starting quarterback. In all, Champion threw for 4,725 yards and 27 touchdowns on 423 completions. He also carried the ball for 580 yards on 163 carries and added two touchdowns along the ground. He finished his career with Tech’s eighth best career passing yards total and tied for tenth best in touchdowns.
Now that’s a signing!Definitely a keeper and should’ve never left BC.Nice one :thup:
definitely an interesting signing. He didn’t “leave” BC , they cut him and kept Lulay.
He never played enough to draw a bead on him but he “looks” like he’s a QB with some talent but he never rose up the depth chart under Buono.
Good opportunity for him.
I know that, I meant they were wrong to get rid of him over Printers but it came out wrong :lol:
FAIL
Champion seems to be a pretty talented guy, I like that signing better than the other two. It'll be interesting to see who gets kept as the QBs lower on the depth chart next year.
