I hear that but Reich's daughter was hired weeks ago and like Florio said...attorneys will latch onto that because it would be more shocking if that was coincidence.

Fair, but I know nothing of his daughter’s credentials for the position. I don’t want to speculate or potentially discount her professional acumen. She is from the area so it’s not completely outlandish. However, yes, attorneys will latch onto whatever suits their case.

No it wouldn't.

If Wilks attorneys actually try to use that in his case, they'll likely be laughed out of the courtroom.

(and deservedly so)

Ok let's compare the QBs they had.  Do you think Wilks would have done better on AZ his first year with or without Andrew Luck? We can only compare one season because that's all Wilks was given.

That's a ridiculous argument.

Yes, you can compare more than one season. In fact, you should because to do otherwise is pretty obviously disingenuous.

As to quarterbacks, If you want to bring that into the equation then you have to factor in that Reich was stuck with a quarterback he didn't want last year, so that invalidates your suggestion that last year's records have any meaning.

At this point, I hope you're just trolling because what you're trying to argue for is utterly ridiculous.

That's true. I'm not prosecuting a trial here. I am just asking you personally if you think Wilks would have had a better record if he had Andrew Luck his first year in AZ? Conversely do you think Reich would have the same record had he been stuck with Rosen?

Put the two resumes side by side and take off the names. You're really trying to say you'd take Wilks?

All you have to do is put a blindfold on after you read the job description and compare the candidates resume. 

You take out anything not related to the job description, including name, race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, nationality, age and anything else not related to the job description. Just give them a number.

Do that and tell which number you come up with. Then tell me the name of the candidate. I'll wait.

I'm pretty sure if Wilks had coached a team full of all pros, he might have looked better.

He didn't, and arguing the hypothetical is useless.

Reich managed to coach good performances out of Carson Wentz and a way past his prime Philip Rivers.

It does not. Reich had an awful record with a QB he didn't choose. Same with Wilks. Wilks did perform better this past season.  Sure Reich had a few more seasons under his belt, but it's not really Wilks fault he didn't have a larger sample size is it?

I didn't say a team with all pros. I said a team with Andrew Luck. Don't stretch it. When you stretch it...it validates my argument. Would Wilks have been 3-13 in AZ if he had Luck?

I am sure there are legitimate instances of African Americans being passed over because of their race.  I am almost as sure that the Wilks/Carolina job is not one of those instances.  
 

The attorneys might want to look at the situation and assess whether or not the Carolina job helps or hurts their argument.  In my opinion you can easily poke holes in this claim.

Wilks coached solid performances from Sam Darnold. So what.

Reich earned his additional seasons by winning.

Heck, he earned his head coaching job in part by helping a team win a Super Bowl.

Every argument you're trying to make here is based on "what if this happened" or "what if that happened". That makes it pretty clear that your argument doesn't stand up in reality.

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
