charlotte observer reporting special teams coach Richard Rodgers job is in jeopardy. 

 

Panthers special teams coordinator Richard Rodgers said Sunday he had no word on his future with the team after the unit finished at or near the bottom of a half-dozen categories in the 2014 regular season.

“That’s up to the powers that be. I just coach football,” Rodgers said.

 

Carolina’s special teams unit finished last in the league in net punting average and punt return yardage allowed. They were next-to-last in kickoff return yardage allowed. In three other categories – kickoff return average, gross punting average and opponent’s gross punting average – Carolina finished in the bottom-quarter of the league.

I'd say that deserves its own thread.

 

This one is mainly for news from other teams.

It would be insane if he is retained.  As bad as Shula is, he is worse, our ST essentially did nothing right this season.

If it's Joe reporting than we can be pretty sure he was fired after the Arizona game.

Not worried about Todd Bowles at all. His defensive philosophy is too risky to sustain success. Plus former coordinators don't always have a strong performance out of that particular unit once they become a head coach. Mike Smith was a defensive coach too.

Starting with this bit of news you probably won't like to hear...

 

Word is the Atlanta Falcons may now be targeting Todd Bowles in their head coaching search.

 

That could be trouble.

 

He coached a heck of a defense the past few years.  That is worrisome for us!

      You know, there's something about this whole JAG thing that really just drives home the idea that to some folks, these players aren't real people, just names and stats.  Of course, it goes beyond sports. We're a sad, jaded species, us humans.

      Unc Basketball thread

      Yeah, it's just dumb. Everything is year to year. I never understood how anyone could stay engaged as a Kentucky fan or duke fan as duke became a one and done factory like Calipari made Kentucky. The thing I liked at about UNC is that we primarily focused on recruits likely to play multiple years. We'd have pur occasional one and done but most of our pros still played multiple years. And the days of the Stackhouses, Wallace, Jamison, Carter, etc. playing multiple years is just over. And now you have your role players entering the portal every year to test the waters elsewhere. I don't blame them for looking out for themselves but just personally speaking I'll run out of interest quickly trying to get to know a whole new roster year over year.
