CFC is proud to announce that TSN officially released the 2020 CFC Prospect Game rosters! The talented group may not be able to meet on the field, but it's time to celebrate their great accomplishments. View the rosters for Team Dunigan and Team Burris HERE.

Every prospect has too much time on their hands right now ... And if you just "no way!" ... The first step is to stop lying to yourself. The next step is to start working on your vertical jump with the help of our resident Strength and Conditioning Expert Elliott Richardson HERE.

It's the age-old question ... So who better than the wise Coach Sonny Wolfe to tackle the debate about student-athletes receiving compensation for their blood, sweat and tears on the field. Find out what Coach Wolfe has to say HERE.

CFC200 CLASS 2021 4TH EDITION

OFFER THAT GUY

What has good hands, runs good routes, and isn't afraid to go up and win that 50/50 ball? Why CFC100 class of 2021 Chey Charles of course. As a running back, Charles has good vision and will patiently wait for his O-line to do their part so that he can do his. As a receiver, well let's just say there are a few OBJ type grabs on his film...you be the judge. At 6'3" and 210lbs, this Ontario native has a high ceiling and boat loads of potential.

Our take:

Plays various positions on offence
Can make plays, has good vision, runs good routes
Uses his frame extremely well and is very athletic

TOP PROSPECTS of the week

Katie Uttley catches up with Belle River, ON native CFC100 Class 2022 LB Dylan Simpson, who decided to trade in a set of go-kart wheels for a pair of cleats, and never looked back.

Kato and Dylan discuss his favourite pregame traditions, how he found his love for linebacker after making the switch from receiver, and provides an update on the early days of his recruiting journey at CFC events and down south.

SOUTH OF THE BORDER HEADLINES

Over the past couple weeks, there’s been some interesting stuff going down in the offer game. Grad transfer CFC100 Chris Fournier has garnered offers from Rice, New Hampshire, Towson, and Maine since announcing he would transfer for a fifth year next year, given the new NCAA rule where players get an extra year of eligibility. 2022 CFC100 OT Jackson McEwan also picked up his first offer from Fresno State.

In NFL week 10 action, a Canadian had a career day. Eagles linebacker Alex Singleton had 15 tackles against the New York Giants, which is an even higher single-game total than he ever had in the CFL, even in his 2017 season where he was awarded CFL Most Outstanding Defensive Player. CFC100 Chase Claypool also had a solid day, with 4 catches for 56 yards and a couple scores versus the Bengals.

Week 12 wasn’t the strongest week for Canadians in college football, partially due to 17 total cancelled games, and adverse effects on some top guys (Chuba Hubbard’s been injured the past two weeks and Josh Palmer’s quarterback is simply not good). Some bright spots were CFC100 RB Chase Brown of Illinois with 110 rushing yards and 2 TDs, CFC40 DE Daniel Joseph with 5 tackles and 1.5 sacks, and CFC60 LB Geoff Cantin-Arku with 5 tackles and 2 sacks.

RECRUITING TIP

Most popular questions from recruits this week?

Does my scholarship amount mean I get more playing time? The amount of scholarship money that has been offered is NOT an indication of how much playing time you are going to get in the upcoming season.

BOTTOM LINE:

The BEST players will see the most playing time. Many coaches will tell you that the way to get on the field is to perform.
