Nomination du nouveau Directeur Athlétique

[deuxfans]

Demain matin sera nommé le nouveau DA à l'institution de la rue Sherbrooke.

UN communiqué a parlé d'une figure sportive connue à Montréal... Plusieurs hypothèses fusent...

[Boris]

This is weird...I was just about to start a thread asking what was going on here and when the Stingers were going to announce the new AD!

[Sylven]

Pendant ce temps, les Stingers perdent un autre joueur : le receveur et botteur Renaud Labrecque transfère à Mount Allison. Quand c'est rendu que tu perds des joueurs aux pauvres Mounties...

[Onterrio Boyz]

Patrick Boivin, formerly of the Canadiens, is the new AD.

[John]

Renaud est blessé depuis qu'il est arrivé universitaire et s'est blessure l'ont malheureusement beaucoup ralenti... peu être pourra t'il rebondir la bas..

[deuxfans]

Il est le fils de l'ex-Président du Canadien Pierre Boivin et est diplomé en Finance des ... ahummm HEC.

Intéressant article sur le sujet d'un ConUniste de coeur, Jared Book, sur CISBLog.ca

Jared Book: "McGill had a better football team than Concordia last year."

Wrong.

And McGill won't be better than Concordia this year either.

C'était serré l'an passé, je te l'accorde, mais si tu penses sérieusement que Concordia sera meilleur que McGill cette année, d'après moi tu ne suis pas assez le football universitaire pour t'être rendu compte de la vague de défections (joueurs et entraineurs) qui a frappé les Stingers ni du recrutement nettement supérieur de McGill lors des deux dernières années...

Mais bon, tu n'es pas le seul, Reid Quest disait il y a quelques mois qu'il pensait que Concordia avait des chances de remporter la Coupe Vanier cette année... Moi je pense qu'ils ne feront même pas les séries.

[Boris]

Con U's losses have been well-documented.

But every good recruit doesn't come out of CEGEP, Sylven, and the Stingers have picked up some decent transfers and other out-of-province players.

And I know a fair bit about CIS football, thank you very much.

McGill was terrible last year - beat Mount A (who cares) and was destroyed by everyone else. Their '13 recruiting class is overrated.

[Paperboy]

In fact your wrong and i have to agree with sylven!!

The redmen were way better than Con U last year and that in fact with a younger team.

The Redmen have not been destroy by Sherbrooke,Bishop,Concordia. In fact they had more yards and first fown again bishop and Con U. And again sherbrooke once!  So in fact they produce more of offense in 4-5 game then opposite team.

Concordia produce more offense once last season than the opposite team ..... Tic tac tic tac ... It was again StFX and like you said who care .... :p

We could also consider the first game laval as tight one but him not even talking about this one !

Nathan taylor
Kris robertson
Christan Walcott

And im sure i forgot some.

Almost all starter gone ... Sorry to say that but wont make playoff

[MIK]

Boris, you say ''Stingers have picked up some DECENT transfers and other out-of-province players''

Sorry to burst your bubble, but ''DECENT'' won't cut it in this league, you should know this by now.

It has been a polarized top 3 teams and bottom 3 teams league for a few years now, and I for one feels that McGill is closing in upwards while the Stingers are going in circles.

I think that many would agree that Concordia is the new McGill, if you know what I mean. I wish it would be different, we all like competitive teams, but time will tell I guess.

Tu as raison que, pour les équipes anglophones, toutes les bonnes recrues ne viennent pas du cégep. Toujours est-il que Concordia avait l'habitude de ramasser plusieurs recrues collégiales de qualité par le passé, en particulier de Vanier (division 1). Maintenant, ils doivent se contenter d'une poignée de joueurs de division 2 et division 3.

Et non, après vérification, ils n'ont aucun transfert d'autres universités cette année vs une dizaine qui part de Concordia, dont plusieurs partants comme Paperboy le fait remarquer. Quant aux recrues des autres provinces, j'avoue ne pas les connaitre, mais je remarque que seulement 2 ont été dans l'équipe de leur province à la dernière Coupe Canada. Vraiment pas beaucoup.

De leur côté, McGill a recruté plusieurs blue chips québécois, dont Pierre-Luc Dussault, Kadeem Lewis, Tim Mitchell, Qadr Spooner, Devon Stewart, Jean-Christophe Bouchard, Charles-William Tremblay, Chris O'Kill, Eric Gracioppo, etc. Pense pas que leur recrutement soit surévalué du tout.

Je ne crois que McGill était "terrible" l'an passé. C'était une équipe jeune qui a eu des hauts et des bas, mais comme Paperboy le mentionne, ils ont donné du fil à retordre à certaines équipes. Même au Rouge & Or pendant une demie !

I think Boris might be doing a bit of trolling..

McGill did have a good 2013 recruitment. However, if you look at McGill's list of returning players it's not overly impressive. McGill needs one more good recruiting year before they have a shot at being a good (.500) club.

[MIK]

More important than a .500 season, they need to win just once against a French university to spark major respect. Easier said than done of course, but not impossible with their progression.

Impossible cette année selon moi. Peut-être dans un an ou deux s'ils continuent d'avoir de bons recrutements. L'important pour McGill cette année est de ne pas se faire massacrer par quiconque.

[Boris]

The last good Concordia team was 2008 when they played in the dunsmore vs. Laval. Other than Liam Mahoney and Cory watson , most of the good players on that team were form Ontario. Look it up.

[MIK]

Of course most of the good players were from Ontario back in 2008 - no choice really as the top Quebec players didn't see much of a destination with the Stingers. Hasn't changed much since either.

[Boris]

Ok, Concordia officially sucks. Can't even beat U of t.

If McGill has improved AT ALL they will be a lot better than Con U this season.

[Onterrio Boyz]

Wrong, Boris.

The '08 team had lots of good players from Quebec - J-P Binette, Turpe, Kyle Smith, Anthony Barrette, William Miller, Kristin Matte and I'm prorably forgeting a few.

Anyway, McGill will be better than Con U this season notbecause McGill imporved very much, but because Concordia has gotten worse.
