Panthers’ training camp plans in flux: Go to Wofford or stay in Charlotte?

There is no way it is in Spartanburg. Players will not want to be that far away from their families. I suspect a few hotel floors will be bought out like a lot of other teams do to begin with.

And I don't want to go on a business meeting. 

NC might not let them have camp on time.

You have to quarantine and wait for testing results after a business trip? 

Are you putting your life at risk on a business trip? 

If you take a business trip close by during the  summer there's a good chance you bring your family if it's for a week. 

Nothing about NFL training camp is like a normal business trip. Stop

Stay in CLT. Fug Wofford, Jerry Richardson and Brenton Bersin.

Hey now, no need to attack Bersin. While he wasn't an all star WR and he was horrible as a return man, the man was always there to to make those "must have" catches. If we needed to make a catch to move the chains he was usually good for it.

I guess its a good thing that COVID only exists at a training facility at Wofford.  Good call.

You got that right. 

Transportation is a short hop in your own personal vehicle, no risk. 

Once on site at Wofford it is a completely closed and controlled environment.

Likely the safest possible place a Panthers player could be. 

VIVE LA PANTHERS!!!

SC just lifted sports restrictions for adult leagues. That would mean TC at Wofford would be 100% legal. Honestly, it's probably a great idea, students are off campus, we can have camp mid-July, no fans on the hills. It's great because COVID-19 testing could be done on everyone on the campus and they stay in the school's dorms until camp concludes. The only difference is players can't go to Walmart and such as they usually do. There would be no reason to need 10,000 tests, if nobody leaves or comes in, the virus can't spread where it isn't.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
