Can the Carolina Panthers snare QB Andrew Luck?

With Harbaugh likely to come out, I can't imagine Luck staying for a new coach unless he really, really does not like the team picking first.

I think if the NFLPA and owners can't come to an agreement by the deadline for underclassmen to declare for the draft (Mid January) , they will lean towards staying in school.

What makes Harbaugh likely to come out?

Letitia, you naughty, naughty girl- this isn't the draft forum.

The number of job offers he'll get, the rumors he has already told his players, suggest to me he's going to come out. It's not definite but I would be surprised if he didn't.

Plus he already interviewed for an NFL job previously (Jets).

That, to me, is the clearest evidence he's ready to jump.

also, the money he's getting with stanford isn't really something that would hold him back. i saw somewhere he's only getting $1.5mil for the remainder of his contract. he started off there with something like a $750k salary and moving up from there was a hard pill to swallow for stanford. that isn't exactly a football school or area, witnessed by the thousands of empty seats for a 5th place team in the NCAA.

money probably isn't the most important thing in the world to him, but regardless of how little you care about money you don't turn away a job offer that will get you an increase of at least $3-4mil a year.

It will be interesting to see if Luck would even want to be a Panther, I know I am personally biased, but what's wrong with joining a young team, in a relatively temperate climate, in a great area of the country, with huge success for how long the franchise has been around

Being his other choices are three historically aweful franchises... I would guess this would be his best choice. (Arizona, Cincinnati, Buffalo).

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
