"South Carolina women's basketball coach Dawn Staley was in the house and talked to Panthers players and coaches about what it takes to reach a high standard."

That's pretty cool, actually. She came to motivate the players and coaches (even though she is a Philly native and proud Eagles fan).

I wonder if Jaycee and/or his girlfriend were the impetus behind the invite. Maybe it was the FO. In any event, I like it.

The players and the coaches can learn a thing, for sure, but it sounds like David Tepper could learn a lesson from Dawn Staley as well. She may have been talking to the ownership of the WNBA expansion team, the Portland Fire, but she may as well have been talking to David Tepper.

“Give them a voice as they unveil the team, give them a saying and perspective. [You] may not take [their ideas], but even if [they’re] being heard, [they] feel a part of it,” she said. “Don’t leave them out. Don’t wait until [the team’s] already established to start listening. Start listening now because I often find that when you treat people good, they treat you better.”

Staley doubled down on the importance of following her blueprint to build fan loyalty.

“I hope that the owners really give the fans what they want,” Staley advised. “Like, hear them out. They are the consumers; they are the people that’s gonna buy season tickets.”

 

Staley is talking about fans coming by her office, and Tepper won't even allow fans at practices. *Sigh*

 

“South Carolina has been the leader in attendance for the last 10 years in college basketball. Little old Columbia, South Carolina,” Staley stated. “Mom and pop, you can come past our office, you can sit down, you can have a conversation with us. We give you access to us.”

Dabo sighting. Dawn Staley sighting. Who's next?

well, that the 2 coaching goats of the Carolina's.  Not sure you can really add anyone else on par with them. 

I'm cutting Belichick out and putting him to the side.  Clearly the GOAT.....but dude wants back into the NFL.  I doubt he has any interest in sharing/helping any NFL team out.   That's not very Belichicky.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By mccjeff · Posted

      Been here a while but rarely post and most of them are smartazz. Mostly lurk just so I can sound informed while hanging out drinking beer in my neighbors garage. Amusingly a Huddle level of knowledge kind of makes you a subject matter expert. Thanks for that.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      That’s similar as saying MVP Cam is the same as rookie Cam because his mechanics didn’t change. We’re talking about production.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.
