Agreed.  Rivera was ripped for his nepotism, but this is shaping up to be the same type of situation all over again.  Maybe these guys will actually perform, but it's not a good look to just hire all of your buddies with no experience.

I thought we hired a capologist for the cap?

My comment was based on Tepper's presser in December.  That was how he described the new position.  But we have always had a financial guy on staff, the previous one left to go with Rivera.

Without More information, it sounds like keeping Hurney forced us to go with someone even less qualifies than him. Yikes, entering nightmare territory and could be a couple of years of bleakness.

Hurney is surrounding himself with people who won’t takeover for him. Sounds like a bad hire and Hurney’s going to be here a long time. SMH.

I don't know that I put this all on Hurney. It is another Baylor guy, so I am gonna guess this one is on Rhule.

This is one hire I don't like at all.  I'm ok with the college coaches because coaching football & leadership translates.  This VP position was supposed to be all about pro scouting/cap management and allow Marty to focus on college scouting.  Padden has 0 experience in the NFL/scouting/salary cap management.

 

And he will be reporting directly to the Man, the Myth, the Legend himself. It seems as though Marty is still firmly entrenched as the GM of the Panthers for the foreseeable future. Hes the only one with real experience in the league in the FO except for maybe the President? Hard to see him getting replaced at this point

I see the Rhule tie but it's keeping Hurney that disqualified us from beinging in a star like Berry or the NE guy to land this guy. In the end, it is all Tepper's fault. I would have liked to see Rhule get a good shot at succedding but that may be going down the drain with another bad move.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      After last season, it was the same question. And the answer most people came to was "If he doesn't make the playoffs, he's gone." He made the playoffs. No matter how it was done, we made it to the playoffs. He's safe. He's going to have a chance to keep working this out, even if next season isn't a playoff one.  I think we'll do better next year than we did this season. There's something being built here.

      The NBA is a very fickle league. Kon is one of the hottest rookies in years and beyond just his play on the court he is a very steady competitor and that translates to the rest of the team. That has been a glaring absence with the culture of this franchise through the bulk of the LaMelo Ball years that's just being completely blunt and realistic. The enigma of LaMelo Ball is he is entering year 6 and still either red hot or ice cold. We need him to find that sweet spot. Logic dictates the Hornets will want to see this core again next year. But the clock is beyond ticking at this point. It's put up or shut up. Especially considering what the Thunder managed to do recently. I'm hopeful they can keep these wins rolling in and get some much needed playoff experience under their belts which will help substantially.

      I think as long as the Panthers are competitive with Canales they should keep him. Pepper needs to repair his/the teams image as a place prized free agents aren't hesitant to consider. Just dont do any crazy poo for a few years.
