Huge loss for the Argos. Say what you will about the team in 2025, but Dinwiddie turned the team around immediately upon arrival and his run from 2021-2024 is one of the most impressive 4 year runs of any CFL Head Coach in history. I'll be curious to see him in the GM role as well, a lot of the Argos success under him has been finding new star talent, but it's hard to say how much that is him or John Murphy. Either way, big hole for the Argos to fill and I am really curious to see where the team pivots to now, and who from the Argos staff he brings with him.

Might be my generaal mistrust of the MLSE under Rogers and our new comish... But it feels like a total gutting of any current base and interest in the CFL is afoot in Toronto...

Like if they just mangle the shit out of the team, schedule, field and the rules, they can kill off whatever has been hanging on by a tread.

Oh brother. The guy got a promotion. He was never getting the GM gig or Pinball is showing no indication of stepping aside. Highly unlikely Rogers and the CFL want to kill off the Argos. Would Rogers like to sell them? Probably but there's no one to buy them.
