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.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
