Bryce Brown to CFL?

That would be an insane move. The coaching he would receive at any top-tier college would be light years better than anything he would receive in the CFL.

All he has to do is look at Brandon Jennings playing overseas. Yeah, he is getting paid, but he said he sometimes doesn't even play and it can't be helping his stock. Also, Brown would have to stay in the CFL for 3 years while Jennings will go pro after this year.

He would be stupid to make that decision to go there, and in no way is he worth 15 million dollars. Canadians getting even dumber, amazing

...5 million/year....CFL?

No, I'm pretty sure he said that he gets paid, but he has only been paid on time once

By his own statements he often does not actually get paid.

I think he was talking about Jennings playing overseas. I heard Pargo saying that they get paid, but it is rarely ever on time.

Oh, I see. It got a little confusing when the conversation jumped from Brown to Jennings and back again. The thread was about Brown and his "manager" and then apparently went all over the place.

The statement I made is still valid. I believe Butler said he doesn't take any money...at least from the kids.

Brian Butler, the controversial manager of the top-ranked football recruit, Bryce Brown, is open to the idea. Butler told The Times that if approached by a Canadian Football League team, he'd consider sending Brown there. Butler said he planned to have someone explore the possibility of Brown playing in the C.F.L. next season. "If they were talking about any amount of real money, I'd guarantee it," Butler said of Brown potentially playing in the C.F.L. He mentioned a C.F.L. team paying Brown $5 million a year for three years. He added: "We're not playing around.

Two things. If the CFL appraoched me, I woudl consider it to. manager is obviouslu so shary you can't see him at night. He is sending out feelers.

I am told the team salary cap is 4 mil. So, the 5 mil per year does not add up, if that is true.

Yeah, I think the highest paid player in the CFL is Casey Printers at $500k / year, or at least that's what it was in 2007.

I have 3 buddies that have played in the CFL. None of them ever cleared more than $50k/year. In the words of one of them, a linebacker "sure as hell beats teaching gym class".
