I hear a lot of people say he was a mid-tier college coach.  I'm genuinely curious, how would you tier the college football conferences.

For me its..

Tier 1: SEC

Tier 2: Big 10, Big 12

Tier 3: Pac 12, ACC

Tier 4: everyone else

If he were the commissioner of the Big 12 that would be one thing, he was the head coach of a couple of teams that were never going to seriously challenge the top tier teams in college football.

Hence mid-tier.

I saw a pic somewhere(reddit maybe), 3 minutes leftd and maaaayyyybbbee 15% were still there. Facts are many other teams have that same problem- loins,jags,jets,wfts just to name a few. I doubt by seasons end the panthers would be last, even if it feels like it. 

Trust me, if you owned season tickets, you’d more than feel it

So who do you got/want?

I think the better question is "who does this job appeal to ?"  Just look at the team liabilities:

  • no QB
  • OL is a problem and needs lots of work
  • overall defensive performance has been checkered at best this season
  • missing a bunch of good draft picks for 2022
  • salary cap is starting to get hamstrung with all the high-dollar contracts that were handed out

I'd have to say not many coaches would find this job interesting.

Hurney had hype when Tepper bought the team? Who was hyping Marty Hurney in 2018?

Honestly, I just don't think Tepper had the ability to evaluate football people. He let an absolute moron in Hurney sell him on the idea that he was one of the NFL's great drafters (😂) and then he let a college coach from a C level program sell him on his culture and program building abilities. Yikes.

Hurney hyped himself. Tepper bought it when he bought the team.

True, but have you seen the brinks truck Tepper can offer??

Plus hes building avengers south, that would be nice to be apart of....

New coaches pretty much always take over bad teams.

it's generally done with the mindset "Yeah they suck, but I can fix it".

Up and coming coaches believe in themselves and want an opportunity to prove it as a head coach.

The Panthers job isn't ideal, but how many teams that fire their head coaches are?  Winning organizations rarely have head coach openings.

I'm sure Tepper is more than capable of making an offer that will be hard to refuse.

Nah give Finesser and Dan Morgan the keys and see where they take it.....He was uber aggressive in the draft and trade deadlines stuff....I loved that. His free agents signes I hated......I was right it seems about them.....tho Id call it a push given Fox,Jones, and reddick saved the group. Elf has looked decent as a C too....Erv Im sure is already hurt again form stepping out of his car....

I hated it.  We let a ton of talent slide right past us in the name of adding picks.   Who is contributing right now from this draft?

Where you get apprehensive is wondering whether he makes said offer to the right person

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
