For now and for the foreseeable future, all eyes will be on Trevor Harris, whom the Argos have anointed as their starting quarterback.

With Ricky Ray’s future dependent on his recovery from off-season surgery and his ongoing rehab, there’s no telling when the three-time Grey Cup champion will be under centre for the Argos, leaving Harris as the player under the microscope.

The start of camp, which kicks off Wednesday when rookies and quarterbacks report to York University, represents the start of a new chapter for the Argos, now three years removed from their Grey Cup win.

There’s an air of newness to this team with new owners and a new place to call home on the horizon, but there’s also questions that can only be answered during camp and during the pre-season.

Perhaps not all will be answered as the team begins its 18-game regular season with a game in Fort McMurray, Alta., against the Edmonton Eskimos on June 27, an Argos home game, albeit against an Alberta-based team.

Harris will lead the Argos, his time in the spotlight officially beginning on Wednesday.

When Zach Collaros got his long-awaited shot to start two years ago, an injury to Ray would pave the way.

It was a coin toss, in essence, that led head coach Scott Milanovich to go with Collaros over Harris.

The decision this time around was made much easier, given the time Harris has been with the Argos and his understanding of the offence.

He cemented his role in last year’s season finale against visiting Ottawa when Harris proved he could play at this level.

Now comes the hard part of playing at a high level with consistency, efficiency and being that presence in the huddle.

“I have no question about Trevor’s preparedness,’’ said Milanovich. “That will never change. Trevor prepares in the same manner as Ricky Ray. He (Harris) lives football. He knows the offence inside and out and he will be our leader. What he needs is reps.”

He’ll also need help as the Argos begin arguably the toughest opening stretch to begin a season in the history of the CFL, which is saying a lot.

With five road games against five quality opponents, by far the top five teams in the CFL, with no true home game until early August, the odds are clearly stacked against the Argos and Harris.

Winning the turnover battle, winning field position, making big plays in all three phases in key moments, establishing the run game and playing with discipline, those are the ares that will define this Argos team.

Which player will line up where depends on what kind of impression players make in camp and during the Argos’ two-game exhibition season, which begins at Varsity on June 9 against Winnipeg.

The Argos close out the pre-season with an away game against the Als on June 18.

It’s too premature to speculate on what the Argos will do with their roster, but they do have options and there are jobs to be won on both sides of the ball.

Wednesday is also the coming out for new defensive co-ordinator Casey Creehan, whom Milanovich appointed to succeed Tim Burke.

Creehan was Hamilton’s defensive co-ordinator under the George Cortez regime, a one-and-done exercise that would end with a 43-40 loss to the host Argos in the 2012 season finale, a game that featured Collaros leading the Toronto on a game-winning field goal drive.

Harris also played in that game, but he’s expected to play in many more this coming season.

Mitchell Gale enters his third year in Toronto, in all likelihood the team’s backup.

Logan Kilgore has a strong arm and he got some much-needed reps at the team’s Florida camp earlier this month.

The wild card remains Ray.

Ray won’t practise, but he will get plenty of treatment and mental reps.

On offence, there are jobs on the line of scrimmage, in the backfield and at receiver.

Kashif Moore joined the Argos late last season and he has a chance to line up at receiver and be used in the return game.

Vidal Hazelton, a big, sure-handed talent with NFL experience, has a chance to start at receiver as the Argos look to fill the voids of John Chiles and Jason Barnes.

Kierrie Johnson made an impression at Florida and was signed by the Argos, who have only two bona-fide experienced receivers in Chad Owens and Andre Durie.

Jarred Fayson has familiarity with the system, while newcomers such as Kevin Elliott and Diontae Spencer have shown potential.

Up front, Bruce Campbell will be given a chance to nail down the key starting position at left tackle.

Fellow first-year Argos such as Nikolas Embernate and Greg Van Roten, who can line up at guard and at centre, should compete.

In the backfield, Curtis Steele will be the incumbent.

Anthony Coombs, last year’s first-round pick whose season was cut short following a shoulder injury, can also line up at slotback.

A player worth watching is Lyle McCombs.

And in the background resides Chad Kackert, the Grey Cup MVP in 2012 who had his moments of explosive bursts in Florida.

On defence, the biggest area will be in the back end, a secondary that will be coached by Jordan Younger.

The only certainty is that Jermaine Gabriel will start at safety.

If Matt Black can claim a starting position at corner, additional roster flexibility will be created.

One-time NFLer Jacob Lacey has a chance to start, likely at halfback.

Vincent Agnew, who tore his Achilles last season, Branden Smith and Isaiah Green have experience with the Argos and it remains to be seen what becomes of veteran Alex Suber, who knew Burke.

A.J. Jefferson, who was signed on Tuesday, has the NFL background.

Whether it’s Brandon Isaac or Matt Ware, or someone else, a player must emerge at strong side linebacker.

Greg Jones appears to be the odds-on favourite to start at middle linebacker with Cory Greenwood at weak side.

The return of Ricky Foley, who played his university football at York, gives the Argos a veteran presence on the defensive line, a character player who will pressure the backfield.

A healthy Kyle Moore, who once started for the Buffalo Bills, should give the unit a boost.

Newcomers Tracy Robertson and Martez Wilson have a shot to make an impression.

The kicking game is in the capable hands of Swayze Waters.

“I think guys are looking to get rid of that bad taste,’’ added Milanovich of last year’s 8-10 season that ended with the Argos missing out on the playoffs. “I know I am.”
