OT Kenny Allen: CFL

Submitted by UESWolverine on

I just watched Kenny Allen make 3 FGs so far for Hamilton today. The game is on ESPN2 in case anyone cares. It got me wondering who is the greatest CFL player that graduated from Michigan? 

Side note - June Jones is the Hamilton head coach.

as an assistant head coach for offense with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. The CFL commissioner squashed that idea in August.

Nonetheless, good luck to Kenny Allen over there. Hope he uses success in the CFL as a springboard to the NFL.

There are six ex-Michigan players are the CFL player list:

Kenny Allen Hamilton
Delonte Hollowell ?
Wayne Lyons ?
Craig Roh BC
Johnny Sears Tor
Raymon Taylor Mtl
 
I was shocked to see how many ex-Sparty players are in the CFL.  I didn't count, but there has to be 20.  Also our old Buckeye buddy Marcus Hall is playing up north (although he isn't listed on a team roster).  I wonder what the exchange rate is for a double bird?

A buddy just tagged me in a picture on Facebook less than an hour ago. It was him with Kenny Allen. Kenny's Hamilton Tiger-Cats just beat up my home town Montreal Alouettes. Allen went 5-5 on FG and 4-4 on extra points.
