With coaching vacancies expected in Cleveland, Washington and Oakland, there is a big question about what will happen in Carolina. One source thinks coach John Fox and GM Marty Hurney, who each have a year left on their contracts, will keep their jobs. “I think [owner Jerry] Richardson would like to get rid of them, but I’m not sure he wants to pay off the $6 million he owes them.”

Damn. $6 million is one hell of a buyout. Why can't Fox do the honorable thing and resign or "break" his finger?

hahahahahahahhaha :out:

like any of us would say no to 6 million because someone wanted us to quit our jobs.

I dont care if I am the worst person ever at doing my job. There is no way I would quit and lose that money.

I think just the opposite. It might cost JR more money to keep Fox here. The Panthers will lose millions alone on concessions at the stadium if Fox is back.

One would hope.

This is the double edge of the PSL.

Stadium sells out reguardless. Thats upwards of 300-400 million right thar.

and how many fans have the football sense and desire to NOT buy beers and food in the stadium in an act of defiance.

I agree the money for selling the tickets will be there no matter what due to the PSL and the the fans at the game will still buy stuff. I am referring to the 30,000+ not even showing up. That hit alone at the concessions will probably be more than 6 million by itself.

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      By Kentucky Panther · Posted

      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.

      The Carolina Huddle

      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.
