The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are inducting Scott Flagel and Khari Jones into its Hall of Fame in June.

Jones was one of the best quarterbacks to ever don Blue and Gold. He arrived in Winnipeg through a trade with the B.C. Lions on Feb. 28, 2000, and went on to rewrite the Bomber record book during the next four seasons.

Khari Jones had his best season in 2001. He led the CFL in eight statistical categories, and won the league's Outstanding Player Award that season. He still holds the team record for most passing yardage with 5,334 yards in 2002. Jones twice led the CFL in passing TDs (2001, '02), passing yardage (2001, 02) and passing completions (2001, 02). He was a CFL All-Star in 2001 and a two time East Division All-Star (2001, '02). Jones also spent time with the Calgary Stampeders, Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Edmonton Eskimos before retiring.

Scott Flagel is originally from Winnipeg and played junior football for the St. Vital Cobras.

He spent six seasons (1982-87) as a member of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers after breaking into the CFL as a rookie in 1982.

He earned a reputation as one of the hardest-hitting safeties in the league - he was named a CFL All-Star twice (1986 and '87), and was also a two-time Western All-Star (1985-86) and won one Grey Cup with the team in a thrilling 47-17 win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the 1984 Grey Cup in Edmonton. Flagel also spent time with the Calgary Stampeders, Hamilton Tiger-Cats, and Ottawa Rough Riders before retiring following the 1991 season.

The two former Bombers will be officially inducted into the Hall on Tuesday, June 17 during the 2008 Legacy Dinner at Canad Inns Polo Park. Tickets for the Legacy Dinner are $275 each plus GST or $2,750 plus GST for a table of 10. They can be purchased at the Bomber Ticket Office.

Here are player profiles as posted on the Winnipeg Blue Bomber website:

SCOTT FLAGEL

Flagel played junior football for the St. Vital Cobras (1978-79) before accepting a football scholarship to Arizona Western. He began his pro career in 1982 after signing with the Blue Bombers as an undrafted free agent. He played in seven games during his rookie season, contributing 25 tackles and 11 assists and was a special teams standout.

After playing in all 16 regular season games in 1983 and '84, Flagel emerged as one of the top safeties in the CFL in 1985. He had four interception returns for 62 yards and one touchdown, 69 tackles, six assists and was named a West Division All-Star for the first time in his CFL career that season.

Flagel followed-up that performance with another stellar season in 1986. He accumulated 71 defensive tackles, 28 assists, one fumble recovery, two interceptions and a quarterback sack en route to being named a CFL and West Division All-Star.

Flagel had arguably the best season of his CFL career in 1987 when he tied for the Bomber team lead in fumble returns with three for 27 yards and added 24 special teams tackles, five interceptions for 48 yards, 53 tackles and 26 assists. That performance led to him being named to the CFL and East Division All-Star teams. He was also the Schenley Award winner for Most Outstanding Canadian and the Lew Hayman Trophy as the CFL East Division's Most Outstanding Canadian.

A defensive playmaker, Flagel twice led the Bombers in fumble returns with three in 1984 and three in 1987.

Flagel also spent time with the Calgary Stampeders (1988), Hamilton Tiger-Cats (1988-89) and Ottawa Rough Riders (1989-91) before retiring. He earned three CFL East Division All-Star nominations (1989-91) and was a league all-star (1989) during that time. In 1990, he the CFL record for all-time blocked kicks with seven.

KHARI JONES

In 2000, Jones took over the starting QB duties midway through the season and never looked back. He got his first start as a Bomber on July 28, 2000 against the Montreal Alouettes and completed 27-of-48 passes for three touchdowns and a whopping 448 yards, which ranked as the eighth best single-game passing yardage mark in team history at that point.

Jones would go on to complete 263-of-510 passes for 4,141 yards and 31 TDs that season. His 510 pass attempts were the 10th best in club history while his 263 completions and 4,142 passing yards ranked 11th and eighth respectively in those categories. He also helped lead the team to its first playoff victory in Hamilton in 65 years, a 22-20 nail-biter over the Tiger-Cats at Ivor Wynne Stadium. He also put up big numbers (22-of-45 passes for 297 yards and two TDs) against Montreal in a 35-24 loss to the Als in the East Final.

K.J. had arguably the best season ever by a Bomber pivot in 2001. He helped lead the Big Blue to a 14-4 regular season mark and led the CFL in eight statistical categories, including passing completions (329), passing yardage (4,545) and TD passes (30).

That performance earned him the CFL's Most Outstanding Player Award. It was the first time a Blue Bomber won the award since former Winnipeg QB Tom Clements was named the league's top performer in 1987.

Jones didn't let up in the post-season, either. He led the Bombers to a 28-13 win over the archrival Ticats in the 2001 East Final, passing for 154 yards and two TDs despite the blustery conditions at Canad Inns Stadium. Jones also put up big numbers in the Grey Cup, passing for 286 yards and two TDs in a heart-breaking 27-19 loss to the Calgary Stampeders.

Jones and Co. kept the pedal to the metal in 2002. The Bomber pivot set or tied 18 Winnipeg Football Club records and led the CFL in passing completions (382), passing attempts (620), passing yards (5,334) and passing touchdowns (46). He threw five TD passes in a game four times that season and surpassed the 300-yard passing mark in a game an astounding 10 times in 2002. His 46 TD passes surpassed the previous team mark in the category by 10 set by former Bomber Matt Dunigan in 1994.

The Big Blue signal-caller was solid in the Bombers' heart-breaking 33-30 loss to the Edmonton Eskimos in that year's West Final at Commonwealth. He threw for 202 yards and one TD in a losing cause.

In 2003, Jones dressed for all 18 regular season games and completed 274-of-502 pass attempts for 4,016 yards and 25 TDs. He also gained 350 rushing yards on 56 carries. That performance pushed him into second place in the Bomber record book for 3,000-yard passing seasons (four), passing attempts (2,178), passing completions (1,248), passing TDs (132) and passing yards (18,037). It also helped the Bombers earn a berth in that year's West Semifinal. Despite a 37-21 loss to the Saskatchewan Roughriders, Jones still managed to pass for 260 yards and two TDs.

Jones started the 2004 season with the Bombers, appearing in 11 games and completing 168-of-300 passes for 2,138 yards and seven TDs. He was traded to the Calgary Stampeders in September as part of a deal that saw defensive end Joe Fleming, safety Wes Lysack and fullback Scott Regimbald join the Big Blue.

Jones joined the Hamilton Tiger-Cats as a free agent in 2005 and saw action in eight games with the Tabbies. He signed with the Edmonton Eskimos as a free agent in 2006 but did not see any action before leaving the sidelines for the broadcast booth when he joined the CFL on CBC team.

Jones still ranks first in several individual Bomber statistical categories including most passing yardage in a season (5,334 yards in 2002), most consecutive 3,000-yard passing seasons (four), most passing completions in a season (382 in 2002). Last year, Jones and Bomber slotback Milt Stegall were voted the Making the Connection tandem as the CFL's top quarterback-and-receiver pairing of all time.
