I agree, I don't want Tepper to be crazy but at this point it's lining up to be a learning experience for him. It took Haslim more than a decade to offset his negative impacts.

I also see a very good chance that Rhule may run back to college anyways at the end of the year. The rest of this year is not going to be fun.

Rhule and staff are just not ready, they will probably succeed later from the experience in this failure.

It aint running away from all that money

The tax difference is huge and believe it or not a lot of people actually would prefer to live in Miami over Charlotte. 

It is a huge tax advantage for the super-wealthy...

...in fact, Appaloosa Management is headquartered on Washington Avenue in Miami Beach.  

I've lived in both places and much prefer Charlotte.  

I don't think it's the tax climate drawing Mr. W.I.O. to Miami...

...but rather the "lifestyle".

It would be an odd decision to leave a very high paying NFL job to go back to college but then again Rhule has never stayed anywhere long.

I have always sort of wondered if he just really wants to build and then bolt.

Also, places like Florida and Texas, with no state income taxes make up for said taxes in other ways.  Its not like they're just not gonna get that sweet, sweet tax money from you.  They have insanely high property taxes for instance.  In Texas, I own a ~400,000 dollar home and my monthly property taxes are like 600 dollars - a lot more than if they just took a normal income tax from me like when I lived in NC.

Eventually they are going to stop paying him and come after his money if they can't get a trade worked out. 

Or name him the starter and force him to make a choice...

...earn your money or get suspended without pay.  

Easy choice there...

nah, he only really bolted once and that was for a premier job.  Going from Temple to baylor is a no brainer.  Going from Baylor to the NFL is a dream

    • Very good points.  I also think you reach an age where your enthusiasm wanes, you quit learning and start relying on experience, and you lose touch with the younger generations of players--it happens.  And you are right about Bryce.  He is frustrated and he took a ton of heat--I can't imagine where he was mentally, but I have some idea.   Bryce is very smart-he needs to beat teams with his mind more than his arm.  He could not play chess when everyone around him was a confused pawn.  This season, he will use more motion to tip coverages and he will use more pre-snap reads.  Than means he should not be breaking the huddle with 12 seconds on the play clock and rushing to get the play off--there are so many things that can impact a QB's play, and there are many signs that he was provided the least possible chance to succeed.  In my view, this is his rookie season.  Last year was a fire drill.
    • I also find it curious we decided to practice at home instead of up in NY… not sure I would have made that decision. Need a feel for the ice and boards. Maybe we’ll do a very limited morning skate tomorrow. 
    • It really was crazy. The NFL hype on him was nuts. And I think for our FO, we basically outsmarted ourselves. Some of that has to do with Tepper going against the grain and wanting show how much of a genius he is. Stroud should have been the guy. I thought it might end up being an NFL horror story of sending an undersized kid to get crushed as first overall. I'll give him this though he is tough as nails.  This season will give us a better measure of where he's at, I think. I was hoping he'd come back a little bigger muscle wise though.
