“I’ve talked to him,” Reich said when asked if he’s mentioned a coaching job to Kuechly. “I’ve kinda broached that with him—a few months ago actually. Don’t think he was ready for that conversation yet. But I just tried to maybe plant that seed a little bit. I don’t know if he’ll ever do it. But certainly, we would welcome it if he would.”

I think Luke just enjoys being around football but doesn't feel ready for a coaching position. Luke's demeanor has always been a very quiet presence off the field but on the field he was a maniac! It's kind of weird to see him yelling at players to get the most out of them. At least Reich knows how to treat Panthers legends compared to Rhule.

Luke has tens of millions and a girlfriend/wife who’s a surgeon. He doesn’t need a demanding job and I doubt he wants one.

Don't think it has much to do with need with people like Luke. He would do it because he wants to compete

Luke is enjoying life being around football but knows that coaching will consume it again. Deer season and football coaching don't go hand in hand.

Could be back in coaching in the future but I'm not holding my breath for anything soon.

The more I've thought about it, the more I think the pro scouting role he had before really might be the better option for him.

One of the prime duties of a pro scout is to watch film of other teams to look for tendencies and exploitable things.

Luke was always phenomenal at that.

He would be an incredible asset for us. His preparation and knowledge of the LB position and defense would be hugely beneficial. 

That said, he seems pretty happy with the retired life and I wouldn't blame him for continuing that life in the slightest!

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
