I think that an attorney who actually deals in property and contract law would be able to give us better insight than Huddlers using it for fodder to berate Tepper. 

It's not like the man is going broke or something. He's just doing what rich people do when things don't go their way I'd imagine.

Remember when he bragged about how it was gonna be bigger and better and more advanced than the Avengers headquarters?  🤣🤣🤣

And someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the original story was that York Co./Rock Hill defaulted and that's why building was stopped.  So, if that was the case, how tf does Tepper's real estate firm owe them money after the settlement?

My guess it's to pay off contractors that are caught up in this debacle. How and why the two state entities are being reimbursed is a mystery.  It could be to pay their contractors involved in this? 

In any case it was the right thing to do on his part regardless of RH's part in it.

Tepper could afford to do this on his own just as other developers do. The infrastructure outside of Tepper World is entirely up to the state/county, however it works in SC. If he counted the state to kick in money in advance on a handshake deal with Rock Hill then he hasn't done business with government before.

From what Erik Spanberg says…everyone is getting paid what everyone is owed.

Charlotte business journal paints it as resolution

Huddle Norms take it as sky r falling.

Im going with business journal.

Odd given that the team he used to be a part of isn't as big on the fancy stuff and tends to concentrate more on the actual football side of things.

It's almost like he can't learn anything and doesn't have any common sense.

He has been a disappointment from day 1 here, I'm actually not 100% sure what he could have done worse, outside of trying to move the team.

the contractors and York County make sense.  It's what they were owed and listed at. 

if I am not mistaken, did Tepper's folk list RH as like a $750 creditor awhile back.  I would just be curious how less than a thousand dollars turned into $20 million.

As I recall though, not paying back those things was one of the reasons they filed bankruptcy in the first place.

(hence the lawsuits)

So after all the talk about how we were going to have this amazing state-of-the-art practice facility that would be the envy of the league and have a bunch of other neat stuff around it, back to the status quo.

No matter how you spin it, that's kind of embarrassing.

Definitely not what anybody would call "winning"...

They filed bankruptcy so they don't have to pay for other contracts they signed for future work.  They never said they weren't going to pay for work done. They said from the beginning that want to pay everyone who is owed.  But there was probably 500mil more of contract that were awarded for work on site that was never started and if they didn't file bankruptcy, those with contracts could come after their money.  Chapter 11 is a finances reorg to pay of debts and cancel contracts.

GTRE also says $20M will be available to city of Rock Hill, stemming from the sale of the 240-acre property 

Can someone translate why they doing that 

If Rock Hill accepts payment, there is probably no lawsuit. A STFU and go away parting gift. It would cost more in time and lawyer fees to drag this on.

I looked back at some of the original stories but don't see any mention of future projects.

Did see this regarding the lawsuit (link)

York County has filed a lawsuit against several of Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper’s organizations and the city of Rock Hill over the “misappropriation” of $21 million in funds tied to the team facility that was under construction in Rock Hill.

County leaders allege in the lawsuit the Tepper Defendants “improperly utilized these funds on their failed vanity project, the Carolina Panthers’ headquarters and practice facility.”

“Both the City and the Tepper Defendants have harmed York County and its taxpayers, and the County should be made whole,” court documents state.

They were seeking 21 million ar rhe time, and the story now says Tepper's company is willing to pay them 20 million.

Offering one million less does sound like kind of a 'f--k you' move.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By ladypanther · Posted

      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.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      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.

      He wasn't a JAG, he's been a starter every year of his career. Didn't turn into the superstar it seemed like he might his rookie year, but I think part of that has been being misused. Guy was/is a baller.
