[b]Okay does anybody have any SOLID info on whether or not Clermont has any interest in coming to Saskatchewan?
I hear this is the last year of the BC contract. There will be a bunch of interest in him.
Jason Clermont and Ben Cahoon are two guys that stand out in there positions nobody can touch their intensity.
I would love to have Jason Clermont in Riderville.
BC may not want to let him go, but it may be tough to keep him.[/b]
It's all rumour at this point....I've heard he has a girl in Regina, and has work there (real estate, I believe) that he does there in the off-season....could be wrong, though. Being raised in the area doesn't hurt, either....however, because of tampering , nothing will be finalized until his contract runs out, obviously....
He's never come out and publicly said it but it seems he has hinted at the possiblility a bit. He does have a real estate job in Regina and lives here in the off season, so I guess it would make sense for him.
He can't come out and say anything because he is under contract to the Lions.
However, I hate to admit it, but I think he will be yours in 2008. Wally made him a generous offer to stay in Vancouver, but because of the reasons that jm02 listed, he will move to the Riders for LESS MONEY in 2008.
I don’t think that its going to be this year but I think that the core players as well as the core system that austin and tillman are going to provide will get us a ring in the next couple years. I think a team always needs one year to get all gears moving under new coaches, but then again every team in the league has a new offensive coordinator. I hope that I have to eat my words. RIDERS FTW!!!
