2008 Pre-Season Set to Begin

June 12, 2008 · No Comments

Tomorrow is the start of a new era in the Stampeders history, a time when there's change at coach and GM, but also stability and depth at QB. The first pre-season tilt against Edmonton will pit a number of veterans against each other for limited spots. The QB position is not the only competitive position (Burris, Dickenson, but then Sankey and Nealy), but in the defensive corps as well.

At the strong-side position, Shannon James and Dwaine Carpenter are competing for the top job, while veteran Marc Calixte provides depth and special-teams contributions. Newcomer JoJuan Armour is locking horns with veteran Trey Young at the weak side....

Should be a good tilt to watch. Listen to it at home on QR 770 AM staring at 5:30PM.
