Darian Durant's slow rise to the top

Posted Jul 17, 2009
Darian Durant's CFL career has taken flight like a 747 — even though some time has been spent in the hangar. Entering Saturday afternoon's appointment with the visiting Montreal Alouettes, the Saskatchewan Roughriders boast a 6-0 record in games started by Durant. He has leapfrogged Marcus Crandell and the immortal Joe Adams while compiling the best-ever record for a quarterback after his first six starts with the Green and White. (Regina Leader-Post)
