Mike O’Shea Returns as Blue Bombers Head Coach

Mike O’Shea will continue his role as the head coach of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers for another season. The team confirmed his return on Friday, easing uncertainty about his future.

O’Shea’s Coaching Tenure

Since taking over in 2014, O’Shea has established himself as a key figure in the organization. The 55-year-old coach holds a remarkable record.

  • Regular season record: 117 wins, 77 losses
  • Most wins in franchise history
  • Seventh most wins in CFL history
  • Two Grey Cup championships from five appearances

Recent Performance

This past season, the Blue Bombers faced a tough elimination in the East semifinal against the Montreal Alouettes. They earned a crossover berth but could not advance further in the playoffs.

Implications for the Argonauts

As O’Shea reaffirmed his commitment to the Blue Bombers, the Toronto Argonauts now seek a new head coach. They aimed to interview O’Shea for their vacant position, following the departure of Ryan Dinwiddie.

Dinwiddie transitioned to the Ottawa Redblacks, assuming the role of head coach and general manager. The Argonauts are now exploring options for their coaching search.
