Tally of Everyone Who Believed in Rhule

Haven’t been around here much recently, because you know, the state of the franchise.  But can we get a @mention of all the users who have been Rhule apologists from the get go?  I remember a ton of folks who loved this guy and have believed in him as late as this past off-season.  Just would appreciate some accountability/recognition for such a horrendous stance

No one truly knows how a coach is going to pan out in the NFL especially as a HC. (I was against the hire) but the "I told you so" comes from all the blind homerism that followed and supported his decisions that were being made. Made me sick to my stomach to even come to this board during that first year. So many bad decisions made and all of the arm chair GMs here supported it. I will never forget it. It definitely sucks to be in year 3 of another lost year but I can't help but feel that this fan base deserves to see the Rhule era through. This is what 95% of this board wanted and supported. Hopefully it ends after 3 and we don't see a year 4 but if we do yall did ask for it. Can't cry over spilled milk. It is what it is unfortunately

Why the hell does this matter?

Have you never been wrong about anything? 

Meh... worthless thread that doesn't do anyone any good.

I was cautiously optimistic but I caught a lot of poo for calling into question his atrocious record against ranked teams in college and saying it was a significant red flag.

Yep you were one of the few that always came to my defense whenever I questioned the moves this team was making (even got banned from the main forum for awhile) I'll never forget those days lol

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
