    Riders name Cortez new OC

    The Saskatchewan Roughriders announced today they have agreed to terms with George Cortez to become the team’s Offensive Coordinator.

    Cortez joins the Riders after spending last season with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats as Head Coach and Director of Football Operations. The native of Port Arthur, Texas brings over three decades of coaching experience to the green and white, including 19 seasons in the Canadian Football League with four Grey Cup championships. This will be Cortez’s second stint in Saskatchewan after spending the 2006 season as offensive line coach.

    Beyond that, the veteran coach spent two seasons with the Buffalo Bills as quarterbacks coach and four seasons in the NCAA as an offensive coach at the University of California-Berkley.

    Last season’s Offensive Coordinator, Bob Dyce, remains with the team.

    The Riders also confirmed reports that Mike Sinclair has left the team to join the Chicago Bears as assistant defensive line coach.

              This certainly puts more pressure on the Eskimos for improvement this year. Cortez should certainly help out the Riders a bunch. Should be an interesting battle in the West this year.

                See that both the Regina Leader Post and RDS are reporting this. I have to say this is disappointing as I was hoping he'd end up with the Esks.

                  I thought Edmonton would turn to Lapolice first anyway, if they could offer him enough to get him to come.

                      But...but...according to a few here he already is the best QB in the league!

                          Would have rather seen George come here as OC instead of Riderville...mainly because I think Crandell sucks and needs to be replaced in the worst way but I don't know if LaPo is the answer.

                            Agreed....never been a fan of Plop.

                              Better than Flacco even!
                              There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.
