Rule change: teams will be allowed to incite fan noise

Found this article through a link on PFT, I wasn't aware that a rule change has taken place this year where teams are allowed to incite fan noise through visual noise meters and other "get loud" messages until the play clock hits 15 seconds... hoping the Panthers will take full advantage of this...

Stand up and get mildly loud, Panther fans!

No, no, that's too loud. A security team member is on his way to escort you from the stadium. Please relinquish your wine glass to Chet.

Is the second guy from the left drinking a white zin? I hope for his sake that it's port or scotch.

Not sure when the rule was put into effect, but I was up in DC at a Skins game a few years ago and they had a vid with Lavar Arrington putting his hand up to his ear while the defense was on the field... the place went crazy.

Can you imagine how loud things could get if they have a similar video with Smitty or Beason?

Charlotte crowds can make noise, I was at the first Bobcats playoff game and when they were pumping up the crowd before the game it was deafening.

That reminds me... I need a black suit and tie.

I'm surprised there hasn't been a video yet of Jerry Richardson, finger to his lips, making the "shhhhhh" sound midway through the playclock. Getting loud to distract our opponent...that's just rude and bad sportsmanship.

We could always get Moose to come back:

    • He should've been more than a JAG, but Jeremy Chinn.  I was convinced he was our next defensive star 
    • I see what you did there
    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
