Moore's interview on Panthers.com reminds me of the Foster looking at Williams pic

"Were you surprised with how the draft unfolded?"

"Uh nah, I mean I knew they were gonna have to do something at the position, Jimmy Clausen's an okay player."

"What do you know about his game?"

"Uhm not much really. I'm sure he's decent, I mean he started what, like 5, 6, 7 years there? So yeah it's whatever."

"Do you know much about him?"

"No not really, Clausen's are a big name in california, but that's it."

"How has your interaction with him been so far?"

"GREAT!!1111! NO COMPLAINTS!!11!!"

Yes how dare they ask King Matt about his competition!

The interview had zero substance. They were just pressing him about Clausen the whole time. Why not ask him about his game or how he's improved over the off season? You know poo like that? There's no point in this video being uploaded. It was awkward as hell and now it's online for everyone to see. I just find it a little disrespectful.

no. its on panthers.com, you can see it. but it was extremely awkward.

i'll watch when I get home. It is a shame if Moore doesn't a fair shot....more and more I think he won't get it. Also, Fox seems to suggest it is up for grabgs more than it is Moore's to lose. Despite winning Fox just never seems to appear to have faith in Moore. Not sure the guy playing will give us the best chance to win going in to 2010......he sure didn't most of last year.

It was awkward because he made it awkward. The questions were legit, and no different than what they asked Clausen. And they did throw in a question about how the first practice went.

Moore shouldn't get the same questions as Clasuen. I have seen the clip but there is no way you interview them with similar questions day 1 of mini camp.

Right, I forgot how Matt Moore is above anyone else and not subject to the same questions to see whether he'll handle it properly or do his best to come across as aloof and standoffish about his potential replacement and any talent he has. Which is exactly what he did.

Not saying he is above anyone. It is his 4th year in the NFL and is coming off a great end of a season. He has some roots planted w/ this team. Why would you ask him the same questions and look for the same views as a rookie on day one of minicamp? That is all. The point was why would panthers.com being trying to see how he handles some possible uncomfortable questions....even Smitty says all vets take it personal....just seems odd from the .com.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      This is always a non-story by the time camp begins.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      By TD alt · Posted

      I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.
