Yep. I haven't paid enough attention, but maybe Smart prefers upperclassmen.

I wonder if NIL money backfires in these types of situations? I mean, Beck was being hyped as a potential #1 overall pick so I'm sure lots of money poured in. Kinda like how NFL teams give guys with big contracts a lot longer leash.

That's a good point and one I hadn't considered. If something like that has happened and was ordered by the AD and money men, I'd be pissed if I was the coach.

It literally just dawned on me. Like seriously, why the fug hasn't this guy been benched yet? Oh, because a bunch of money is probably invested in him and he has a lot of outside marketing deals who want to see him playing even if the team is having to carry him

The Panthers might be able to fill a stadium like Georgia has if the bank hosts a big bowl game.

They need to drop all the old conference affiliations now that a lot of the old conferences are defunct anyway. Make matchups that make sense from a geographical perspective. Don't have mediocre teams facing off on the other side of the country. You're going to have a ton of empty seats.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
