Mind of McCabe: uOttawa joining the RSEQ?

Bishopā€™s is probably one of the last programs youā€™d expect to send shockwaves throughout U Sports, but the ripple effect of their departure from the RSEQ has already begun, and they havenā€™t even played a down yet in the AUS.

This entire article must be prefaced with the fact that rumours are heavy right now, and itā€™s still very unclear what direction this story is heading, but we simply canā€™t ignore the report that came out this week from Le Journalā€™s, Richard Boutin, stating that the RSEQ is in talks with the University of Ottawa about defecting from the OUA to fill the spot left by the Gaiters.

There is a lot to unpack with this potential move, but on the surface it would be a shocking departure for my generation that has only known the OUA after itā€™s creation in 1997, and Ottawa has always been apart of that picture during our lifetimes.

Advocating for football prospects one story at a time.
