Taffee up for Army Job my Toughts













Charile Taaffe is up for head coach Job at Army .
Taaffe Bashers You all have a point when comes to our Record but you didn't see how hard Charlie worked..
I know there where days after a home game he go home at 1 and be back at 6 am to look over Films
I'd See him spend extra time with young Players and he was always around for the Media.
He had a great Work ethic just the team just did not jell under his coaching

There where some days we talked at Practices
He would Tell how sorry he was sorry things where not going better.
You could see it in his eyes He wanted us to win and he want it bad.
No one wants to lose
When Frustration kicks in we all do bad things
Problem with Charlie was he did some things to openly
Charlie Taaffe I have Great Respect for him .
I hope land on his feet with a great job
He is a good teacher and would be a great Collage head coach or OC.
He be great coach for Army.
He was just not the right guy for us at this time.
Frankly I don't know if we have right head coach now .
Only time will tell us

TICATS TAB KHARI JONES AS QUARTERBACKS COACH, FINALIZE OFFENSIVE COACHING STAFF

Hamilton, Ontario – The Hamilton Tiger-Cats announced today that Khari Jones has been named the team’s quarterback coach. With the addition of Jones, the Ticats have now finalized their offensive coaching staff.

“Khari’s knowledge and character will make him a tremendous addition to our coaching staff,” said head coach Marcel Bellefeuille. “With Mike (Gibson), Dennis (Goldman) and Khari on board, we’re excited about the talented group of offensive coaches we have assembled.”

As a player, Jones spent eight CFL seasons with the B.C. Lions, Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Edmonton Eskimos and the Ticats. In 131 career games, Jones threw for 21,383 yards and 145 touchdowns while rushing for 1,664 yards and 13 touchdowns. He was named an East Division All-Star twice, a CFL All-Star once and was named the league’s Most Outstanding Player in 2001. Jones retired in 2006 to join CBC’s CFL broadcast team.

Jones joins offensive coordinator Mike Gibson and receivers coach Dennis Goldman on the Black and Gold’s offensive staff while Dave Easley will return for his third season as the Ticats special teams coordinator.

Gibson was appointed offensive coordinator on December 10 after spending the past two seasons with the Saskatchewan Roughriders as their Assistant Head Coach and Offensive line coach.

Goldman returns for his third season with the Ticats after coming to Hamilton prior to the 2007 season. Last season, receiver Prechae Rodriguez was named the East Division’s Most Outstanding Rookie under Goldman’s direction.

Easley will begin his 17th CFL season as a coach in 2009. He originally joined the Ticats staff in January of 2007.

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats announced today that they have appointed Mike Gibson as the team's offensive coordinator.

"I'm excited to have the opportunity to add Mike to our coaching staff," said head coach Marcel Bellefeuille. "Mike brings a wide range of experience and past success to the organization. The quality of his character coupled with his expertise will be a great compliment to the Tiger-Cats."

Gibson spent the past two seasons with the Saskatchewan Roughriders as their assistant head coach and offensive line coach. Before helping the Riders capture a Grey Cup in 2007, Gibson spent two seasons as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers offensive coordinator from 2005-06 and also served as the team's offensive line coach in 2001, helping the Bombers achieve a 14-4 record and an appearance in the Grey Cup final.

A veteran of three decades as a coach, Gibson has spent time with several NCAA programs including Rutgers, Colgate, Temple, Rice, Boston University and Cornell.
