Panthers have put a nice coat of green paint on the field. Might not help the footing.

When we've reached the point of painting the field green, it's time to consider field turf.

I love our natural grass field, but we're going to be a contender for a while playing deep into January so we need a field that will hold up.

Which ultimately will lead to Bowl games not being played at BoA. Don't see that happening due to revenue.

 

Thiswill likely bean issue or a non issue depending on how u look at it for years to come

I personally view it as a non issue

The increased risk of ankle/knee injuries associated with field turf is a concern that has to be weighed against playing on green dirt.

Many venues with natural grass "paint" their fields.  NASCAR does it, and I would be surprised if before preseason game no. 1 at BOA if they don't paint the field.

I get that, but it sounds like we're at the point of painting it to hide the dirt - not to enhance the grass. 

Maybe I'm assuming too much.

      I'm All In On Drafting a QB in Round 1

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Everyone is seeing it now, but nobody wanted to listen to me when I was saying all these things for well over a year leading into this draft.  And it's not that it's sneaky speed, it's like I said, he's not a quick twitch guy that has super burst off the line, but once he gets going with those long strides, he really gets moving.  Everyone was so sacred about potential 40 times, he was never going to be that kind of guy to have a crazy fast time, but he has more than enough speed to be an elite WR in this league given everything else he brings to the table. Which is why using him on the underneath stuff isn't a bad strategy, he excelled on those in college since he's catching it in full stride and was good at getting YAC on those routes.  The problem is Canales' play design and calling, the great coaches run certain plays to set up later plays that get that player running wide open across the middle just 7 yards downfield, but with acres of space and at full stride, and Canales just doesn't have that in him. But also yes, we need to be throwing more jump balls to him when there's no safety help on the outside, it seems like Canales won't let Bryce check to it for some reason, as he never does. Yep, I saw AJ in him from the second he stepped foot onto the field as a Freshman, to me the closest direct comp. But in the pre-draft process I saw someone say he's a combo of Plaxico and V-Jax and I couldn't help but feel that was scary accurate.
