Larry Brown?


C-A-T-S

Recommended Posts

Perhaps LB staying and coaching this year was contingent upon getting an impact player to take us to the next level. I doubt he feels like coming back and coaching the same team with the same deficiencies for another season and barely making the playoffs. Especially with our division being so improved.

We are a team full of slashers with no true point and no true big. That is a recipe for disaster. LB knows what he needs to win, but if he can't get it then he can't get it. He's not a GM.

When your big free agent addition in Livingston, then you've got trouble. No diss to the man as he's trying to make a comeback but damn.

Dude never stays anywhere very long.

But one Championship in a 35 year career. Any great loss?

He makes the team he coaches... BETTER. That is his gift to basketball. The Bobcats are a much better team because of Brown.

If he's gone... I completely understand why. He's getting old. He's tired of the traveling, missing his family, etc. And if we had a better shot at winning, he might consider it. Like everybody else is saying, with our conference that much better this coming season... things change.

lots of rumors going around lately...grain-of-salt.jpg

I don't half believe it either some caller called in and said it was posted on some blogs but I tried google and found nothing but I wanted to see if anyone else has heard anything.

There ya go... the one exception being when he took over a 50 win Piston team and won a Championship his first year their. In one more year, he was gone.

Let's not underestimate what he did in Detroit- when was the last time a team won it all without a superstar?

    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
    • The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen". 
    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
