Jonathan M. Alexander is a native of Charlotte. He began covering the Carolina Panthers for the Observer in July after working at the N&O for seven years, where he covered a variety of beats, including UNC basketball and football, Duke basketball, recruiting and schools, public safety and town government.

They should just dual hire D Newton because he is the only one not leaving, even though it would be a mercy to us fans. What say yall, 2 years and he moves on? 

Exactly. LOL

The pay must be garbage at the Charlotte Observer because these reporters run for the hills the first chance they get.

Im familiar with him from the UNC beat. He doesn’t seem like a bad guy, but he has certainly been a part of the Raleigh N&O crusade against all things UNC Tar Heels and absolutely spread fake news and negative stories about Carolina in his short time there. The triangle media has a hard on for UNC and his coverage was average at best. Certainly not as bad as Dan Kane or Andrew Carter  or Brownlow.

This guy focused more on try to “get” UNC a lot more than he ever did on any actual sports

the observer is garbage

Have to agree with you on this. He wasn’t as bad as some of the other people at the N&O but their coverage is extremely biased against UNC.

DeCock was the ringleader in that circus, correct?

Kane is the ringleader. He and Andrew Carter still harass Carolina with bogus FOIA requests. 
 

here is one from Alexander in June 22 - https://nextrequest.unc.edu/requests/20-259

no doubt looking to try and dig up some dirt and find any thing at all that he can spin as some garbage against UNC. 
 

I think one way, and correct me if I’m wrong, that UNC can make it more difficult for these idiot reporters like Kane, Jon Solomon, etc to harass UNC is to privatize the athletic department. I’m sure the money is there to do so.

Dan Kane was the worst one

Kane has slowly moved on to reporting about local government corruption, misuse of government resources, police and CO misconduct - ya know, stuff that really matters and deserves to be heard about. NOT spending almost a decade of his life floating conspiracy’s from pack pride and making a big deal about athletes taking easy courses in college. He is a hack. 
 

N&O reporters also barely have investigated or discussed the pay for play and federal investigation at NC$T with Dennis Smith and they have completely turned a blind eye with the payments to Zion from duke ERRRR I mean a “third party”.

      Yeah, Moehrig in likely passing situations as a LB/DB hybrid role seems like a better approach then Rozeboom/Wallace.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      This thread was a fun re-read, and not to toot my own horn, but I'd say I was pretty spot on with the things I was saying about both T-Mac and Hunter, like eerily so.  I really wish I had kept a bunch of screenshots/links to all the arguments I got into with people over the last 2 years over T-Mac, would just be fun to look back on them and laugh. To your post though, it's wild that any NFL GM couldn't see this being the case as 90% of fans out there could see it from a mile away, it really was just common sense, you can't be a full time 2 way player in the NFL today, and he's a better CB than WR, always was. The fact that they traded a future 1st and a 2nd in that draft to move up to take a CB and part time WR is beyond comical, and even if he ends up a great player, is more than likely going to be looked back on as a terrible trade by them.  Two 1st's and a 2nd to take a CB is just asinine, I'm not sure there has ever been a CB who was worth that, even the peak years of Revis or someone like Asomugha weren't worth that, let alone a full career of play.

      This. The Micah Parsons situation is an anomaly and it takes a moron with a gigantic ego like Jerry Jones to pull it off. The vast majority of these superstar/organization showdowns end up with a massive extension getting inked after a bunch of talking and posturing during the negotiation process with everyone trying to get the best deal from their perspective that they can and then everyone making up in the end - basically the Lamar contract situation. That's the normal process of how those situations play out and why everyone just assumed the Parsons situation would follow the same path but then Jerruh gonna Jerruh. LOL
