Sideline shuffle sweeps CFL in *already* exciting off-season

The 103rd Grey Cup is barely in the books and the Canadian Football League is already undergoing a serious “sideline shuffle”.

•  George Cortez is done in BC, too…

Wally Buono confirms OC George Cortez will not be back with the #BCLions. He becomes a serious candidate for the #Bombers to consider.

•  Don’t forget *Craig* Dickinson!

Per #CFL sources: Expect terrific Esks ST coach Craig Dickenson to move in 2016. Either to Calgary w/ his brother or Sask if Jones gets gig.

I think that’s it.

Oh, there were even rumours that Scott Milanovich would be off to the NCAA to be the head coach of the University of Maryland. DJ Durkin ended up getting hired so the Argos came out of that situation unscathed.

This is already a fun off-season…
