    Any chance we’ll be getting any top recievers this year? With Saxon leaving the team, it would really round out our offence having a go-to target for Jazz.

    • We lose both Saxon Lindsey and Dillon Dimitroff, so recruiting receivers is a top priority. That, and offensive linemen, are probably the most important needs.

      There is good news on two fronts. First, Guelph already has some talented young receivers on their roster who will compete for playing time. Second, they have commitments from three very good recruits – Malik Richards, Marcus Joseph and Quincy Reid.

      Richards is ranked among the Top 100 prospects in Canada at any position by CFC. Reid isn’t as widely known but I have watched him in person and he has legit CIS talent.
