Tepper is going to sh*t for everything he does, but I don't see this as a big deal or a bad decision.  He could move training camp to Pittsburgh for all I care.

The moving it isn't likely to be as big a deal as it will be when he starts charging for attendance.

And yes, that's coming.

It's certainly possible that Tepper doesn't give a sh-t about the South Carolina side of the fanbase anymore.

Might be wise for him to remember though that it's not like the team is exactly growing its fanbase in their current status.

Are the Panthers really in a position to take any fans for granted?

Without a doubt.  It's actually surprising he hasn't already started charging admission to TC.  

Cant do that until the team is good on the field.

 Because they arent going back to Wofford?  It was an antiquated way of doing things and its main purpose was a way for Richardson to pump money into the school he went to without him having to give it to them directly.  They've been trying to get away from that arrangement for years.  I dont think it has anything to do with their attitude towards fans in SC.

It seems as if Tepper can't even get the practice facilities right.  While spending millions for coaches to sit on couches and draw double paychecks and abandoning the Rock Hill complex, the man is a colossal screw up.  He has ego and money where brains should be.  Dangerous

I am totally on his side in the Rock Hill debacle but thats the only thing out of his tenure. He is just too impatient. He has been in positions to become a winner and fumbled every time.

now, even if i pull out of the rockhill deal ima gonna do it myself somewhere else tho.

A lot of those in the G-SP area have turned to the Falcons the past few years and a lot of those in the Low Country follow Florida teams.

15+ years ago when I lived in Charleston, it was easier to find an ATL or JAX game on TV than it was to see a Panthers game.

Or they just don't care about the NFL at all and only follow college, which feels like the majority of SCians.

    • This is the best path forward IMO right now.  Try and get a pass rusher with potential in FA, and those guys as the first two picks? Sign me up.  We have to get another LT in here in case Icky is done for, for Bryce and/or the next QB. Part of me says screw it, build the defense, get Nijman back for LT, and if Bryce can't make it work, he shows it. But then we're just right back in 2027 probably needing a QB AND a LT. I think LT has to be one of the first 2 picks and we hope he's a good one. Every move right now to me should be about building the team that's ready made for a QB in 2027, whether that's Bryce or another rookie. 
    • Given that the immediate impact we need at edge. We almost certainly address that in Free agency, not in the draft. Same with Linebacker, unless Styles or Allen is still there at 19. I think the same for OT.  What is the position that we could draft in the 1st round and get immediate help in the first is how im approaching their decision-making  I know ill get dragged for this, but im thinking they go DT in the first. A guy that can play right away and be a complement to D.Brown to wreak havoc at the LOS.   So unless a top tier LB is there, I think DT will be the move. 
    • I think people forget that by his last season Steve Smith had the ass and he played like it - and for no really good reason other than that other stars were emerging on the team and he didn't want to share the spot light.  He was more of a locker room distraction than he was worth. He went on to have great performances with the Ravens' but G-man made the right move allowing him to move on from here.  I personally think it was addition by subtraction and we don't have a super bowl run with Smith on the roster. Steve Smith remains a narcissist who I've never seen internalize his own culpability when it comes to his relationships with others - it's always somebody else's fault as to why he was forced to act like an asshole. This video is a product ad.  I'm cringed that either of these two Panther greats are party to it.
