I live in Raleigh and am going to try and go to some of the training camp this year. I need to find accommodations but realize I have no idea when training camp begins other than it will be in the latter part of July.

Anyone know when they start practice at Wofford this year??

they won't post that for another couple months.....at least not the actual days.

if you want to plan it's probably safe to assume that the first half of august is when it's going on. just make sure that it's not a date that the panthers are playing an away game. also plan on the 2nd saturday of TC to be fanfest in charlotte. they usually don't practice on sundays, but they have stuff going on every other day of the week.

i would advise against going on the weekend...too crowded.

I don't know your situation but there are tons of state parks in the Greenville-Spartanburg area. If you enjoy camping you could save quite a few bucks.

pffft... sleeping in nature... no. Unless they have Temperpedic mattresses, cable television, and continental breakfast in the woods then I'm not interested.

Hah your way of thinking is funny to me. The first thing I thought of when you said Spartanburg and hotel was a dump.

I'll be going to a few sessions this year. What kind of sucks (for fans, that is) is that there are no more two-a-days. I used to love going down for a morning session, heading out to grab lunch/catch a movie, then be back in time for the evening practice and head home afterward. If this year follows suit with last, it'll be either a morning or afternoon session every day. Still a great time. Probably it will be more crowded than normal because of the Cam revolution, so I would also recommend going down on a weekday.

2nded...not a fan of spartanburg...esp. when g'vlile is so close by.

you go to spartanburg for TC and the beacon. the rest of the time you should be in greenville. much better town to be in. better food. better parks. better downtown. very much worth the extra 30(?) minutes to get there.

      Canales doesn't sound all the way sold on Bryce

      I enjoy being truthful. Although that means being unbiased. Which most on here are incapable of being unbiased.

      Giannis

      By Raleigh PF · Posted

      It looks like the Bucks and Giannis are headed for a divorce. He says he's ready to play and the Bucks say that he has told them he isn't. It really doesn't matter except that it likely means the end for Giannis in Milwaukee. He's 31 years old, but still an elite producer.  So, as GM, would you go after him this offseason? Remember, the Hornets have two 1st round picks this year and potentially THREE first round picks next year. What would a trade look like?

      Some homers' opinions of the OTs that we may realistically be able to get at 19

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I agree with you, if all things are equal--assuming we are on the same page as to what that means.  If a DT and OT are there at 19 and you have them equal, which do you take? The DT would be rotational and get 25 snaps a game or so, and the OT is probably a reserve for most of the season.  What if Walker plays out of his mind and Ickey comes back strong? To me, there are just too many variables at T and Morgan met the needs for 2 starters.  Nothing about that screams lets "go OT in round 1" to me. I could see an Edge or a DT at 19 before I see OT.  I could see a TE or S before an OT--and I (personally) would rather have an OT over DT, Edge, TE, or S--but I do not see the logic.  In fact, CB is a position that resembles OT--who do we have behind our starters and are we happy with Smith-Wade?  A CB would be on the field more than a reserve OT.  How is the Walker at LT situation different than the the Bryce situation? He is basically on a 1-year deal and if he is injured, Forsythe becomes Pickett.  Would you take Simpson in the draft?  Dont get me wrong--I usually agree with you  and I get your point.  I am an OL guru--but I just do not see this particular group of Tackles making us better than Walker.  In addition, I think we can address OT once the Ickey situation clears up.  Short arms, poor run blocking, issues with strength--I am simply not impressed with the OTs.  For clarity, "developmental" refers to players who are still a year or two away from starting.  We are all developmental, but there are prospects who need a season to transition to the pro game. I see 1--maybe 2 OTs who could step into a starting role right now. In college, for example, taking snaps under center requires a different approach than blocking for the shotgun.  There is less to learn if you play a position that does not require much adjustment to transition to the NFL.
