Despite banged up secondary, B.C. Lions know defence can be a lot better
SURREY, B.C. — Wally Buono knows his secondary has been ravaged by injuries.
But that doesn’t mean the head coach and general manager of the B.C. Lions thinks giving up nearly 800 yards through the air the past two games, including almost 500 yards last weekend, is anywhere close to acceptable.
“I hope not,” Buono scoffed when asked if the unit is playing as well as could be expected with three starters on the shelf. “I couldn’t care less if we lost five starters. I hope that’s not what they think.
“If that’s the case, you might as well pack up and go home.”
