Wow Did I miss something? Fox 8 in High Point is reporting that the Panthers may move the Headquarters and Pratice facility to SC?

     Is this just political posturing to get more money out of NC, or will the Panthers really move to SC? This article seems to suggest that the Panthers could be on the move? Why am I just now seeing this???

Already, the Charlotte, North Carolina-based team has begun talks with leaders from Rock Hill about relocating the Panthers’ headquarters and training facility to South Carolina

Understood. However, the article discusses the players living in SC. Just thought this was interesting.

Charlotte is just north ofnthe border and taxes and the cost of living is considerably cheaper in SC. Lots of people live in SC and commute to Charlotte for that reason. As far as NFL cities are concerned, Charlotte is pretty cheap, but still a lot of these guys aren't making millions and their earning period is short. It matters to them.

If you don't believe the stadium will soon follow, you're delusional.

The business tax breaks in SC are substantially more beneficial in SC than NC, especially in Charlotte. Not to mention the Charlotte - Mecklenburg taxpayers are tired of footing the bill while their property taxes are about the highest in the state.

York county is effectively a suburb of CLT, would be no reason for any of the players to move. Not enough space in uptown to build a state of the art practice facility/complex like most teams have nowadays and SC is very aggressive about providing incentives.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By TD alt · Posted

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
