DAN RALPH - He has a Grey Cup ring for every finger but it s Hugh Campbell s overall coaching success that s unlikely to ever be duplicated.
Campbell was the Edmonton Football Team s head coach from 1977 to 1982, compiling a 70-21-5 regular-season record and leading the franchise to a Grey Cup appearance every year. The only blemish on a stellar 11-1 playoff mark is a 41-6 loss to Montreal in the 77 CFL final before an unprecedented five straight titles under Campbell, who later earned four more as a club executive..
Basement renovations in the home of Brittany Warren and her family cause the mural to come to light. It shows a giant drawing of Bruce Lemmerman, who played quarterback for the team from 1971 to 1979, followed by a stint as the assistant coach in the early 80s, and director of football operations until 1994. The family thinks the mural was created for the 1974 Grey Cup – Edmonton faced Montreal and lost 20-7 – because the wall is covered with writing and signatures from fans. “Well it was kind of an honour that somebody would have taken the time to recognize the Eskimos and myself I guess by putting this mural in their basement back in the fun days,” Lemmerman told CTV News Edmonton from his home in Oregon.
