Why are they having Fan Fest at Clemson? I don’t know a single Clemson fan that gives a crap about the Panthers in the slightest. Most don’t like NFL at all. The few that do are Jaguars “fans” and former Texans “fans” because of Watson and Lawrence.

You are very biased but also very correct.

This is pretty un-smart...  I have 5 Clemson grads in my family that are huge Panthers fans...

I'm a Clemson fan.  I mean, hard not to be a fan of the only good football program in South Carolina. 

That said, Fan Fest at Clemson is a horrible idea.   Folks in charge under Tepper clearly are not in tune with the pulse of their fanbase.  Like the Ring of Honor, all Tepper can do is look backwards to try to get folks to forget about the now.

Have to do something to appease the other half of Carolina Panthers.... especially after pulling out of Wofford and boning Rock Hill....

that's not appeasing the other though.  In reality, for the majority of the state of SC.....Clemson is a less convenient location than Charlotte.

Yeah that's basically Ga, closer to ATL than Charlotte. Good luck getting anyone from the triad/triangle to drive 4-5 hours for one practice, same for Myrtle/Charleston if anyone down there actually follows the team

I am biased but I also grew up 20 minutes from Clemson, live 30 minutes from Clemson now, and work 10 minutes from Clemson. My family is almost all Clemson fans and most people I am around on a daily basis are Clemson fans. 

For the record, I wouldn’t do this in Columbia either but I know wayyyyyy more Gamecock fans that are Panthers fans compared to Clemson fans. There are also a ton of Gamecocks in Charlotte. At minimum, at least Columbia is more convenient and closer to Charlotte than Clemson.

    • Dalton made the playoffs 5 straight seasons.  He was the #6 rated passer in 2022 (at least by PFF). Smokes & mirrors??? GTOH with that nonsense.  Dalton has always been a pretty good QB, and he's in a scheme now that obviously fits his strengths. And now playing behind an elite Offensive line, Dalton has unlocked DJ & XL into looking like a legit starting WR combo. He's 36 & still has plenty of tread left on the tires.  He is our QB, period, as far as I'm concerned. Absolutely nothing could be better for this franchise in the wake of Young's benching... and this is the best thing right now for BY9 also. I've never seen more of a positive turn around in the perceived trajectory of this franchise than over the past 2 weeks. I'm convinced there's a segment of this fanbase that has a pathological need for doom & gloom... Why can we not just be happy & celebrate the fact that we finally have a good offense that we should be able to sustain with this Oline group under contract together (all of them through next year) and some beyond that. Once we fix the defense, this will be the best team we've had post-Cam.  
    • Darnold is legit bro. Jets/Panthers both had losing cultures when he arrived. Culture and HC matters for a QB.   This isn't a fluke Darnold is playing well. Minny hasn't been a bad franchise in a long time. They have a good environment for players.
    • The class is kind of souring on me.  I'm leaning a bit into the Nus-Bus with an eye on Allar.  Still want to see how the season plays out.
