Ok, so it was the opening week of the Canadian Football League and I happened to catch a game between the Edmonton Eskimos and the Montreal Allouettes. The Eskimos were led by a talented qb named Trevor Harris who set an NCAA D-II record by throwing for 633 yards passing in a D-II playoff game. He threw for 447 yards on the wide-open Canadian field. In the backfield with him was a familiar name, running back CJ Gable of USC and high school all-american out of Sylmar. Gable ran for over 100 yards and also caught a TD pass that was well thrown but required his focus to make a good catch. The opposing Allouettes were struggling with their starting QB, but he go injured, so into the game came another familiar Southern California name, Vernon Adams, Jr.. Adams played at Alemany High. Eatern Washington and Oregon. Adams was able to rally his team in the fourth quarter to tie the score, but ultimately threw two bad balls, with time running down, which culminated in an interception by a guy named Anthony Orange, who apparently use to be called A.J. Jefferson and played for Bakersfield "West" High and Fresno State.
Almost forgot to mention that Cody Fajardo played QB last night in the Thursday night opener for the CFL, for the Saskatchewan Roughriders. He played at Servite and U of Nevada-Reno. Nothing spectacular and I think he took a hit again while running the ball. Saskatchewan also had a WR named Shaq Evans who played at Inglewood High and Notre Dame

I can still remember Sylmar's CJ Gable in a game years ago. It seemed like nobody could tackle him and he wasn't that big, like 6-0, 180. He was such a strong runner.
 
Back to back 2000+ yards seasons at Sylmar and still running strong and hard in the CFL for Edmonton
 
Cody was a legend at Servite, that is cool. It's always interesting to see where former So Cal guys end up like the NBA G-League, which has former Etiwanda/USC guard Jordan McLaughlin.
