Granted release,
It's the right thing to do after Medlock signing

Who will now wear 7, Medlock?

Collaros wanted it.

I'm sure he will be kicking around for awhile in the CFL. Kickers are hot and cold and not too many qualified.

8) Medlock will wear #7. Collaros has picked the #4 for his Jersey.
  Collaros said he would happily give up # 7 to Medlock, because of his previous tenure with the Cats !!

Best Wishes & Best of Luck to Luca.
A very solid, stand-up guy & quality individual.
I’m sure there’ll be opportunities.

Not a surprise, possibly he'll sign with Montreal if Sean Whyte is up for free agency and not re-signed yet?

Thanks for Everything Luca in TicatVille! Best of wishes in the future!

The club's media release announcing this included:

“We’d like to thank Luca for his contributions to our team on the field and in our community. He was a true professional throughout his time in Hamilton and we wish him the best in the future,? said General Manager and Head Coach Kent Austin.

I certainly think the recent announcement of Burris' release should have been similar or better. All Hank got, in print, was "The Ticats also announced that import quarterback Henry Burris has been released," tagged onto the Collaros' signing announcement. When I pointed out how cold the words, or lack thereof, on Henry were (in the earlier "Thanks Hank" thread), a follow-up comment suggested the wording was appropriate because he'd only been a Ticat for two seasons. That's also how long Congi was here.
