PLAYERS: Arland Bruce

BC is a powerhouse.

Arland Bruce is staying on the West Coast after re-signing with the Grey Cup champion B.C. Lions on Thursday.

Quote: "Arland's football resume speaks for itself," general manager and vice-president of football operations Wally Buono said in a statement. "He is an exciting player who helped make our offence even better in 2011. Having him sign an extension today helps us continue building a strong team for this season and beyond." New head coach Mike Benevides is excited to have Bruce back in the fold.

Bruce said joining the Lions gave him a new lease on his football life.

Quote: "I could not be happier to sign this extension," Bruce said. "I have fallen in love with football again since coming to the West Coast and I'm very honoured to know that I will be given an opportunity to try and win another championship for our fans." My Only question is, can Benevides handle being a head coach?

It isn't the same as being a coordinator. Wally will help him along.

Watch for a repeat.
