A cause of death was not given. "I am deeply saddened to hear of Chuck’s passing," Stampeders president/GM John Hufnagel, who served for five years with McMann on Buono’s staff, said in a statement. "He was a great man and a great coach and he will be sorely missed. "My condolences to Chuck’s wife, Marg, and the family for their loss." McMann, a Toronto native, spent 10 seasons as a running back with the Montreal Alouettes and Montreal Concordes, winning a Grey Cup title in 1977. He was a third-round pick of the Alouettes in 1976 out of Wilfrid Laurier and is a member of the Golden Hawks Hall of Fame.
