so this loves football is where im curious... I have seen reports he was considering retiring and didnt love football. Also that the coaches had to go to his house and get him. I mean that doesnt mean his mind cant be changed...but there is a reason a team gave up on a top 10 pick after a year.

Reports aka randoms on twitters. Urban having to go to his house while Garafolo says CJ didn’t mesh with Meyer. Actual reports of Meyer having trouble getting guys to buy in. 

Many of you act as if the Panthers did no homework on this kid. CJ was on their short list of guys they felt comfortable drafting last year.

I'm not so sure it was he didn't love football as much as he didn't love meyer. Being stuck in Jax for 4 years under a guy you can't get along with could make someone contemplate retirement. Some situations are just toxic. I'm not saying that's for sure what happened, but it could be possible given the off-season poo that was coming out of Jax.

Makes me wonder if they would have gone QB or OL in the first if they got him.

QB? Seriously doubt it. Having him wouldn't have changed their feelings on that front.

OL? We tried, but the guy we wanted went to Detroit and we apparently didn't think Slater was worth the #8.

Honestly, we still might have taken Horn. But if not, as I recall per Panthers Confidential we had Devonta Smith in the mix.

Urban Meyer. That's all you need to know.

    • I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.
    • Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
    • According to Scott Fowler, in an article about former Panthers announcer applying for a job with the Ravens... what that job pays, incidentally, when the Ravens posted it publicly they said the salary would be $4,000 to $5,000 per game. An NFL season consists of 20-24 games, including the preseason and potential playoff games, so it will end up somewhere between $80,000 and $120,000 a year. The person hired will be an independent contractor, which is commonplace in the NFL these days for team broadcasters, and also have other radio and TV hosting assignments.  https://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/article315839800.html
