Ol' Mick Mixon might've spilled the beans...

"...sources told Channel 9 the team is looking to build a new indoor practice facility in Fort Mill or Rock Hill and could buy the land as early next year.
Business offices would then move from Bank of America Stadium to South Carolina."

And the price of land just went up. Hey Mick Mixon...

Meh, I doubt it'll change too much. If Dave is this far into it, there's probably been some level of agreement whether there are signed contracts or not

Fair point.

Still, I can't see Tepper as the type of guy who likes his employees spilling the beans.

He touched on it -- not sure if you've seen it -- in Pittsburgh. He said "I would be very surprised if we weren't practicing indoors within a year" with the specific understanding that that's happening in SC. Still I didn't know we'd then be based in Fort Mill

dear god i can't imagine how terrible Fort Mill's traffic is going to be furthermore if we get a practice facility near us. It's already atrocious with Kingsley.

Love the Panthers, but traffic has been an absolute nightmare lately. Hopefully it's built at the old Knights stadium location (most logical place imo) so it wouldn't be as huge of a nightmare, but still. Very much will say Fort Mill's quite congested as it is with all the development happening lately.

      You Done with Morgan Yet?

      By Newtcase · Posted

      I was never onboard with Morgan to begin with.  The dude always seemed a hammer short of a full tool bag, maybe too many concussions.  He was a Fitterer hold over and I thought he should have been gone when Fitts went.  He literally made it to NFL GM with no credentials to speak of other than a playing career.  Shorts stints of personnel management for the Seahawks and Bills, neither organization choosing promotion or retention.  I believe Morgan was added as a friendly face to sooth the a fanbase that was growing to hate Tepper and probably retained for the same reason.  Morgan never coached, had minimal front office experience and the GM he "assisted" was deservedly fired.  From what I can find online he received a BA in Liberal Arts from Miami so that isn't exactly a qualification either.

      If you really want to change the identity of the culture, then your opinion may indeed be the way to go. 1) I see nothing from our drafts since 2020 to indicate that either the scouts or the GM's are shrew evaluators of college talent. 2) A new GM should be able to hire a coach since his livelihood is directly affected by how well the coach can get the team to perform on Sundays. The only time I'm ok with a GM keeping the coach that proceeded his hiring is if the new GM wants to work with the coach. Ideally, He should have final say over the coach instead of the owner. And, that coach and GM need to be in sync on how the team should be run on both sides of the ball. 3) A new coach should be able to pick his own staff. If he wants to keep a coach already on the staff that's fine. A new HC hire shouldn't be told that you have to use this guy for one of the jobs, especially a position as important OC or DC.

      The crazy thing is some of these plays that went down to like 2 on the play clock were basic inside zone runs. That poo shouldn't take 30+ seconds to decide when you are down 24... It's not like they had to hot route multiple receivers and change blocking assignments after lining up. It's almost like Canales has somebody else's playbook and needs to flip through 10 pages to try and figure out what play he is going to run
