LaPolice gets introduction to Frank Clair
When the TV lights were dimmed and the media left to write and edit their stories about the new head coach, REDBLACKS GM Marcel Desjardins gave Paul LaPolice a tour of The Stadium at TD Place. One of the highlights … the statue of the most successful coach in the history of pro-football in Ottawa, Frank Clair. “The Professor,” as he was nicknamed, coached 3 Grey Cup championship Ottawa Rough Riders’ teams (1960, 68 & 69) and then served as GM for 2 more (1973 & 76). And now, cool 1960’s glasses back in style, Clair watches over Marcel and LaPo as they begin sculpting the future of our franchise.
