I don't think Fox has any intentions of leaving next year

[SOJA]

Tom Sorenson, writer for Charlotte Observer, said that he thinks there is pretty much no chance Fox is back in Carolina. He said the departure would be "mutual". I don't know if I agree with this one, there are a LOT worse coaches out than better ones.

I don't think Delhomme had any intentions of leaving, either.

I think Fox had six million reasons to stick around this year no matter what the circumstances.

If I had a girlfriend and we both knew they were only going to be together for one more year and no matter what we were breaking up mutually, then why even wait?

Sex is good and its winter time?

I can no longer envision a scenario where Fox stays beyond this year. He wants a big new contract, JR wants more consistency.

I just don't see Fox lasting beyond this season for a host of reasons.

FYI- Fox has a lot to do with what happens on draft day, to think otherwise is just stupid.

I think it will be very difficult to find a coach that is better than Fox.

Because you can fit a lot of good sex in a year. :sifone:

I don't think Fox goes anywhere as long as this team goes at least 8-8.

And it will be very easy for Fox to find a job if we don't sign him.

yeah, b/c that is what you want.......a coach who can't produce a winning season two years in a row. Not to mention he was given a lock of a playoff team in 2009 if he had done even average coaching.

I guarantee fox would have started him this year.

Certainly not arguing that, but I think it's inevitable.

I do like Davidson as a possibility, but we'll save that for another thread.

[Khyber53]

I guarantee fox would have started him this year.

At this point, I wish we were.

And I am beginning to believe the problem is Davidson and his vanilla offense.

[Razeyfingers]

Ill pull this outta my arse.

I think Fox was saying thank you to JR with this years draft and the overall status of the team. He is doing a good job of evaluating I would say so far and the team is, as you hear so often, "moving in the right direction". I must say, and this could very well be crazy talk but, I agree with Tom Tom and think Fox is as much ready to leave as Jr is ready to bring someone new. He's just making sure he's doing a good job until the finish of his term. Imo it makes him look like a champ and its all laid out in the open for everyone to see.

Fox might very well be jaded with this community and all the disrespect he gets. Dont get your panties in a bunch with that statement but, I do often wonder what its like to be in his shoes. Everywhere you go. . "MAAAN, that Delholme aint worth a HOOT, Foxy,. . . whaddar we gonna do bout that huh, Foxy?!?. . hmm?. . poke. . hmm poke poke?". Although, the guy with the cane is in all of my other dreams, including the one with the circus midgets and Petra Verkiak. Still, It just seems like he might feel like he'll never win the crowd back and maybe thats gettin old to him. idk

Difficult? Why? You really think it's THAT hard to find a coach who can't have back to back winning seasons and make the Playoffs every now and then? I think that's quite doable if you do your homework and don't hire a dud.

Don't hang on to the past because you're afraid that's the best you'll ever have. If Fox is the best we'll ever have, we all may as well find a new team to cheer for.
