it kills me that Alberta is announcing open tryouts again in 2012 (as far as I can tell they first did this in 2011).

Although it is likely some kind of university administrative necessity or public relations effort (although Alberta is historically one of the worst universities in terms of the quality and frequency of their communications) I like to think that the Evil Monkeys (thanks Hollywood) are panicking about the quality of their recruiting class in 2012-13 and are looking for some help up front and on the back end.
good luck with that Alberta.
