Seems like a legit HC candidate could wind up in Charlotte.  Lakers and Wizards also need a coach, but there are some big names floating out there.

Darvin Ham, Buddenholzer, JJ Reddick, Kenny Atkinson, Jerry Stackhouse…

Who ya like to *develop* this young team?

Roll the dice on whomever can build a culture here we've had enough of this loser mentality mess.

Also. Fug Kenny Atkinson

How do you feel about:

Steve Clifford

James Borego

Steve Clifford

Mike Dunlap

Paul Silas

Larry Brown

Sam Vincent

Bernie Bickerstaff

Paul Silas

Damn, Charlotte really is the only city I can recall that fires high-level people and later re-hires them and fires them again (Hurney, Clifford, Silas)

Let's hope to keep that kind of juju out of the mix this go around.

I'm trying to be optimistic here lol.

Honestly give me Bud, dude has won a championship without an insanely stacked team, had 6 years where he won at least 1 playoff series, only 2 losing seasons and only missed the playoffs once in 10 seasons.

 

Also side note, I don't follow college ball or prospects much at all but on the surface it seems this draft sucks and the top 5-10 are pretty interchangeable -- do we even care that much about the draft lottery this year?

No no one cares about the draft this year.  Fat Anthony Bennett would probably go number one. Might as well pick some rando from south Sudan and see what happens

This draft is absolute dog poo.

Risacher is the only guy I’m interested in because he has a high upside but he could easily end up being a bust.

I don’t mind Castle, he seems like a do it all type of player but I’m not sure there’s a whole lot of upside there.

And then if we trade down, I’d take one of Knecht, Dillingham, or McCain.

Sarr is my #1 prospect.

 

After that I have Castle/Risacher.

 

The other prospects I'm just not high on.

Knecht would fit nice with Ball, Miller, Bridges, and Williams honestly.

Damn.

If that's true about Atkinson and trying to force assistants on him that alters my view of him some. Still a dick move what he did but we played ourselves.

But that ties into what we've already known about this franchise under Jordan. We didn't want to pay a coach what he's worth. It's crazy because it's such a 180 from the Panthers who will pay anything and still suck. But at least Tepper is willing to open the piggy bank. If these two guys who are the new owners continue with this way of operating we are pretty much doomed.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      I personally think Bryce is going to be an extremely good Quarterback for a long time. If you look at modern QB development, it just takes a while. The extreme athletes can get by early, but if you look at the trajectories of guys the last 10 years, were seeing a lot of slow-cooking. Jared Goff, Geno Smith, Baker, Sam Darnold, Trevor Lawrence. The list is long.  The guys that were truly special from Day 1 is an extremely short list. The list of things that college quarterbacks are responsible for gets shorter by the day with the transfer portal, and the college offenses. The list of things that NFL Quarterbacks are responsible for seems to get longer and longer each season.  I saw an interview the other day in which a rookie quarterback and center were calling plays for the offense.  I can't remember the team or the Quarterback, but I definitely remember the clip. It takes time, even for the smartest and most gifted, and the reality is, we have no idea how good or bad the coaching may be until we hear things we aren't supposed to hear anyway.  Bryce isn't perfect, but I saw in another thread, his biggest struggle is risk/reward. That is something I only expect him to improve upon. His adjustments, ability to read a defense, and execution have been extremely good considering our rosters in his tenure here. Our offensive personnel and coaching were both so poor his rookie year that I'm not sure it's fair to properly evaluate that at all. Since that time, all we've seen from him is growth and progress.

      Defense ranked 10th

      By Davidson Deac II · Posted

      Not really.  The run defense has been solid except for the opening game and New England.  We shut Arizona's run game down, but early turnovers hurt.  And of course, we shut out Atlanta.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By CRA · Posted

      True, Bryce having a weaker arm wouldn’t be a big deal if it was paired with… Great accuracy, ball placement, etc. But it’s not.  Bryce has consistently done 2 things all 3 seasons.  One of the lowest completion % in the NFL each year,  one of the highest bad throws % in the NFL.    Then you can get into his unwillingness to stress a D and how that has allowed safeties and DBs  cheat coverage making the small ball so many QBs enjoy a tougher task.
