All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

He is a really good player and gets alot of hype up here. He will be a steal to whatever team drafts him. He played in the senior bowl down there in the states and did really well.
I hope the bills draft him, he will be a great power back.
He sounds like a very interesting prospect, worth considering if the Bills choose not to draft a RB in the middle rounds.
Three guys that I like, should the Bills decide to spend a mid-round pick on a RB are Eric Shelton and Antonio Gates, both of Louisville, and Kay-Jay Harris of West Virginia. I love Shelton, who is 6'2", 245 and has good speed--I saw him in a number of games. Harris is the same size, 4.5 speed and looked good in the couple of games I saw him in. Gates is a bit smaller at 6', 220, and 4.6 speed, but may be a little bit better pass receiver than Shelton. I've seen draft projections with these guys going as low as the 4th round (Gates even lower).
I expect the Bills to go for an offensive lineman with their first pick and, then, maybe a TE---although this year's crop of TEs may not be that great after you get past H.Miller of UVa. And, I'm hoping that they will consider drafting a PK---if Nugent lasts until Round 3, he'd be a steal there--because there are a couple of decent PKs coming out in this draft. So, I don't know how high they would be willing to draft a RB. But, unless they can sign a big RB who can take the ball down on the goal line if anything happens to Willis, they are going to have to pick up a good-sized rookie RB at some point because, as much as I like S.Williams, he's just to small to get the job done in short-yardage.
Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.

Do they play with the CFL rules for college ball up there? Or is it similar to the game our college guys play?
its CFL rules i played at mcmaster in mid 90's for a year. he is doing real well in CIAU but lol just like i was no where nowhere near an OLB prospect for NFL in 1998 neither is he.

Thanks-
I don't know if he will make it as a RB in this league or not- but the NFL does like eye-popping physical accomplishments.
Antonio Gates never played TE - he was a Basketball player in college.
Coy Wire is another guy who was drafted more on his physical abilities than his abilities as a safety- as he was a RB and LB in college.
A guy that big and that fast will be in a camp this summer. If Tim Tindale can make a team from CIAU- this guy can.
but if i remember correctly didnt tindale play FB and not RB. in ciau this kid can look like a stud becuz the run is an afterthought as pretty much every down is a passing situation. he might get a tryout somehwere but i highly doubt he makes anyones roster. playing agst 200 pound LB's who are there to cover pass in CIAU is a hell of alot diff then playing agst LB's who are bigger then the d lineman in ciau
