John Hufnagel, who guided the Calgary Stampeders to the 2008 Grey Cup title, is the CFL's coach of the year.

Hufnagel received the award at a luncheon Tuesday after finishing first in voting conducted by the Football Reporters of Canada.

Marc Trestman of the Montreal Alouettes - whose team lost to Calgary in the Grey Cup - and Ken Miller of the Saskatchewan Roughriders were also nominated for the award. All three finalists were first-year head coaches in the league

Under Hufnagel, Calgary posted a CFL-best 13-5 record to finish first in the West Division. After dispatching B.C. 22-18 in the conference final, the Stampeders capped their season by downing Montreal 22-14 in the Grey Cup before 66,308 spectators at Olympic Stadium.

The CFL title was Calgary's first since 2001.


And the Grey Cup is in Calgary for 2009! :cool:
