Okay gentlemen, REAL talk...

Oookaaay. just to review the original topics and where we're at to this point:

- Jeremy Fowler, Dan Graziano, Joe Person have all said that they expect Young's fifth year option to get picked up, with Person calling it an "easy decision".

I've yet to see anyone say otherwise, and barring something crazy happening there'll likely be more insiders and analysts making the same prediction in months to come (especially if we make the playoffs).

- Also doubt anyone disagrees that Dave Canales isn't being retained (which was actually the first point thrown out in this thread) and any staff changes that do happen will probably be backfilling as opposed to replacing.

- Front office? Turnover, title changes and promotions are pretty close to an annual thing there. May or may not be major moves, but there will likely be changes. Heck, there are some prior positions currently unstaffed which they may be looking to fill (Neil Stratton is always a good source for news of that sort).

...

So, questions? Comments? Insults?

Or are we good? 

I'm saving my powder for the offseason.

I'm not playing. I'm just watching from Teppers suite.

I'm a sloppy drunk. I may spill it down Teppers neck. I will try not to get caught staring at Nicole's ass.

I think the board feels one way today overall (remove the extremes). 

lose the next 2 games? I’m not sure the middle is going to feel the same about a lot of things and decisions

I'm just trying to make the best of a bad situation. You should have seen this coming since the end of the 2024 season. As soon as he starting playing better last year I knew they were going to pick up his option. It looked in doubt earlier in the season but as soon as he started having a decent game here or there i knew it was all they needed to buy in. I'm not saying I like it. I'm saying that's going to happen.

I still think “we” sort of operate with a good for Tepper Carolina overall kindset 

feels like we are forever trying to get back to the Fox/Ron level we were so eager to be done with.
