John Fox non-committal on 2010 return

At this point it appears the ball is in Fox's court as to whether he wants to return next year, although if he leaves it might require another team to give the Panthers some compensation in terms of draft picks. When asked if he wants to return next year, Fox said, "Like every off-season there is evaluations and things you look at. I usually talk to my family and see where all of that goes. We're just getting started with that so I can't comment on that."

When asked about where he understands his situation is right now, Fox said, "I have a year left on my contract and I haven't had any postseason conversations with (owner Jerry Richardson). I have an agent that handles those things."

When asked if he's willing to go into next season with one year left on his contract -- something that would be unusual in the NFL -- Fox said, "I would like to just get through this day and see where everything goes with that."

Fox said he will check out the team Monday morning but doesn't know when he'll talk to Richardson.

"If I did I wouldn't go into it," he said.

I hope that POS gets his panties in a wad and resigns.... he acts like he is doing us some HUGE favor coaching here.... He is a mediocre coach who should have brought the lombardi to Charlotte with the talent he had yet him being stubborn had him hold onto coordinators too long (Trgovac and Henning) along with being blindly loyal to players who did not deserve it (Morgan, Delhomme, Rucker)

If we could get a third rounder for him and bring in Cowher I would bust a nut...

Taking Foxy off our hands...that would be compensation enough (anything else a bonus).

Agree we need to get our next head coach from the present staff. Whoever will promise to send Crossman with Foxy.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
