I'm really not sure 

 

Just opt out like Kennard and Sanders did if that's what you're gonna do. 

Yeah, no issue with Sanders opting out.  Team at least knows going in.   Just dipping out because you no longer want to play sort of screws your teammates who cared to play/win.  

and I wouldn’t want my coach making deals with players to sit halfway through.  Play or sit.  No half in bologna.

Yeah, with NIL money borderline NFL players are going to be better off sticking around in college. A late round pick QB is still a very talented college QB that's gonna get PAID in the portal.

Speaking of this, it's being reported that Ewers is already getting offers upwards of $6M if he hits the portal.

Well not singling any one team out. But given the collective noise made about the SEC being screwed and the travesty that was committed during the CFP selections….

Kirk Herbstreit and company sort of got left hanging out to dry with the SEC teams not coming in behind it to back up all that talk  

And yeah, I get players sat that wouldn’t have…..but still for some to holler that loud it sort of needed the I told you so to come with it.

I still think that's why DJ U took that money to go to FSU.  Didn't matter if it wasn't a great situation for him.  He's got to make his money while he can.  Probably knows his pro career is a long shot as a backup.

As long as we get to draft the second tiny terror, Dillon Gabreal, I'm all for them going back. Makes CFB more interesting.

I’m already looking forward to next year.  Clemson essentially bringing thr entire band back.  Should be actually able to make a real run at something next year.  O will be ready.  Gamecocks finally up and really threatening.   Both QBs should be in early talks of at least being possible Heisman guys to watch.  State of South Carolina should have two key national contenders if all goes well next year. 

Really hoping Belichick can go buy some 1 year rental at QB no one sees coming as well.  Maybe that Ewers talk is Bill searching for his  future marketing/recruiting example that will do the talking for him.   Take some meh draft QB and make him a first rounder year 1. 

Next college season has me way more excited than NFL

    • I don't know if Canales is any good as a head coach yet, but he has done well with our non-XL receivers. I personally think he is handicapped by a key personnel and that is partly out of his hands for the next couple weeks. He's also very young, so will absolutely have head scratchers and growing pains. But outside of Wilks he's probably already out best HC since Rivera, which isn't saying much, and imo his ceiling is unknown vs Wilks' which is unfortunately very well known.
    • That's not what Bryce was pitched to be. Nor was the, what, 4th or 5th Tepper rebuild iteration? That's the problem with all this. You trade all this draft capital up to get these guys(Bryce, XL, etc) and then when they get their opportunities they can't hack it. As I have said many times, I view this as less of a development issue as I do an evaluation issue. We just suck at identifying talent correctly. It fails us all too often. If it was solely development, so many of these guys that left here after being failed draft picks would be studs. That is literally almost never the case.
    • I remember the days when it would take WRs a few years to figure it out in the NFL...  What a time that was! Getting to the point of guys finding success else where after flopping here:  patience and a vision. Thanks to Tepper, we haven't been able to develop a vision.  Without patience, everything is a reaction. That's not to say sometimes you can tell when a fit it bad and people need to move on.  In XLs case, it's not going to hurt us to be patient.   Sure, fans see how Tmac is doing and are like "XL who??"  I get it, but I also think reacting for the sake of reacting isn't the best thing to do. Should XL get off social media for a bit and focus on the game?  Yes.  As Cam screamed "Lock in bro!"   I know being patient is hard when you see guys get off to fast starts in their careers.  Tepper can't really afford to be reactive right now.  He's got to let Dan and Dave have the time to build their team. Most of us are Panther fans.  We're the idiots here, year after year, hoping things have changed.  Most of us will continue to do so, and hope things turn around.  While some of us will balk at the salary cap, contracts and wasted years; it doesn't affect us personally since we're just fan. Now for those folks on the teams...yeah...they need to get it together before they lose their jobs and have to move!
