Casey Therriault: Corey Leonard

Jackson State Tigers Dept: But the B.C. Lions insist that their recruitment of quarter-back Casey Therriault - who played with the Jackson State Tigers, a predominantly black university in Mississippi - is no such saviour, though Therriault was known as "The White Tiger" at Jackson State, according to Vancouver Sun. The CFL team's training camp quarterback contingent went from five to four on Friday with the release of Corey Leonard, who spent the 2011 season on the injured list but participated in every practice as the "scout team" quarterback and a White Knight typically rides in to save a damsel - or a football team - in distress. "A guy like Casey wasn't on our radar, because we didn't think we'd be able to sign him," GM Wally Buono said Sunday. "We want to bring him in as part of our evaluation process. That's all it is. It's no reflection on the other guys we have." (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
