Lattanzio needed to be sacked. The team was very inconsistent and could not be counted on to not give the game away late. It happened on multiple occasions. Also he couldn't secure a playoff berth in an expanded format where 2/3 of the teams in the league made the playoffs. This is not some Tepper overinfluence and lack of patience. He gave Lattanzio a full season after he was the interim for most of last season. 

Just trying to get in front of some of the ignorant takes that will no doubt pepper this thread because most of y'all know fug all about Charlotte FC.

Isn't this the second one in three years?

The Tepper's are amongst the worst in all of sports.

It's comical that people have carried water for him and his wife.

Soccer has much more frequent manager changes than the NFL does, just the nature of the sport.

Changing a coach in the NFL is significantly more difficult given the structure of plays and strategy

Soccer is near the complete opposite, a new coach can completely change a teams overall game strategy in little to no time at all.  Sure it will take time for players to adjust and learn to play in a new system, but it’s nothing like NFL teams having to re-adjust and learn new plays that need to have 11 players working in perfect timing together.

Yes, and tbh I wouldn’t put the firing of the first coach on Tepper.  Rumor was that plenty of players spoke against the coach behind the scenes and then that kind of was confirmed after he got fired and the team captain had some stuff to say about the coach, saying there was fracture between the coach and the players and players were relieved when the firing was announced.

Need to fire the soccer team to a different city. Give it to Raleigh where those people have nothing better to do 

Except pull for a winning professional franchise, not be surrounded by wanna be wall-street bros, and watch duke slowly eclipse UNC as the best basketball program in the state.

NFL or MLS. Instability is the continued theme.

As the saying goes if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck. It's a duck.

You ever heard of Duke, UNC and NCSU (not that I personally follow them)? Plenty of stuff to do in the Triangle outside of sports though, like walking safely down the street, or returning to your car that's still there after a jaunt.

And meanwhile in Raleigh, Tom Dundon has done nothing but help the Carolina Hurricanes be perennial contenders and is hoping to bring MLB to the state.

 

Tepper needs to just sell to Dundon. Dundon would then hire a president over the team who has knowledge and experience that he trusts. Because Dundon is one of the best owners in sports.

    • Looking like it might be game 7 for Pitt and Phi. Philly is spent. I like more rest for the canes 
    • Moton is the man through and through. 2 things I'll always give Gettleman credit for, 1 is drafting Moton, the other is building a SB contending roster and blowing it up in one off-season 
    • Kurb is still alive and well.  I’m still friends with him on all of the social media.  He truly is a great man!  That’s my bro!  He always looked out for me since the early days of the huddle.  It definitely makes me sad that he just quit posting here, but that’s life.  He still shares his takes on social media and X, but a lot of the huddle vets just grew tired of this format and the environment, I guess?  It’s a lot of guys that were valuable contributors here that just stopped posting but are still alive and passionate Panthers fans.  Blindsite used to post huge write-ups and was a well-respected poster and then just disappeared.  We had one of these type threads several years ago and he checked back in and explained he just lost the motivation to stay active here.  It was amazing hearing from him again…   I signed up in 04 after coming over from the Charlotte.com boards and been here ever since.  (For those that don’t know - this is Proudiddy - had to change the name very recently due to ‘ol tootsie roll penis and the bad press 😂).  I’m forever thankful for all of you, even those who I haven’t had the greatest history with, I still appreciate yall.  Many have come and gone, both figuratively and literally, and that has put a lot into perspective over the years.  I went from a young, newly married, wide-eyed twenty year-old guy with a baby on the way, to a now forty-two year-old guy, recently divorced and newly re-married guy with my oldest baby now an adult and 5 more kids since.  And what ride it has been!  You guys have been a much bigger part of my life than I really care to acknowledge.😂
