Damn, nobody wants to work for Tepper. I honestly get that vibe from him. A real entitled asshole to work for

I think it might be the opposite. I think Tepper is pushing people out that are not good for what he is attempting to build. 

what we know…..

1. Fired an extremely toxic coach for player morale 

2.  One c-suite member left to go work for a corrupt organization 

3. the guy who blundered the fort mill operation and pushed for turf field is gone 

 

obviously I have no idea what the fug is going on, but one could possibly see that it’s not him, it could be them. Tepper brought a lot of people from top of org charts at other organizations, and it’s possible they all had philosophical differences.

Reminds me of Doctors, Attorneys and PhD's who start playing in real estate or ventures outside of their direct education.

Just because you can pass a test does not make you "smart".  Same with a billion dollars.  Just because you are successful in your one little niche, doesn't mean you can replicate it in another.

Seen it WAY too many times to count.

He's the one who hired all these guys though. And it's also likely he'd have had to approve at least some of their actions.

That scenario doesn't really help Tepper look any better.

Hiring is tough… very tough. As someone who hires about 30 direct reports per year… what you think you are getting vs what you actually get… there is a huge delta.

Granted, but the trends would tell me that Tepper isn't very good at it.

We know he hand picked Mike Hart, but do we know if he hand picked Glick and the other guy (forgot his name atm) ? 
 

it’s not often that an owner is the primary decision maker at that level of hiring. He could have been involved in the interview process but ultimately left the up to his COO (Hart) to make the call.

I hope you’re right, but, unless some good results come from this turnover, it doesn’t look good.

Never seen any indication that these were hired by anyone other than Tepper.

Possibly 👍.

The business ops part of the Panthers front-office is fully 30 people and turnover is normal, too be expected for that matter…especially when an entirely new regime is being installed by a new owner.

Much ado about nothing… 🤘

But in all honesty how much do we really know inside those four walls? Just bc we don’t have indications… doesn’t mean it’s what’s happening. Everything is an assumption until leaks of insider info, which we have none.

Not exactly hard to find...

Panthers owner David Tepper hires Glick as team president

Tepper shuffles top execs for Panthers, Charlotte FC

Glick was initially hired as Panthers team president and later promoted to CEO of Tepper Sports. When he reportedly "stepped aside to pursue other opportunities", Kelly was named his successor in that role.

Given that's the highest official there is at the organization, is there any evidence whatsoever that anyone other than Tepper gave them the job?

I mean, if you really wanna pursue an "everybody's fault but Tepper's" argument, you're gonna need at least some small shoestring of evidence? Do you have that?

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
