Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach Mike O'Shea has signed a three-year extension with the club, the CFL team announced Thursday.
The native of North Bay, Ont., has been named the CFL's coach of the year the past two seasons.
O'Shea has guided the Blue Bombers to three consecutive Grey Cup games with the lone loss coming this year against the Toronto Argonauts.
O’Shea ranks third in career wins in Blue Bombers franchise history with 82, behind only Bud Grant (102) and Cal Murphy (86). He is currently the CFL’s longest-serving head coach, having led the Blue Bombers for eight years since accepting the role in December 2013.
The Blue Bombers are 82-58 under the former star linebacker since 2014.
O'Shea started his coaching career as an assistant with the Argos in 2010 before joining the Blue Bombers.
