As A Latin Alum, I Felt The Need To Post This

Sorry if this is already posted

As a child growing up in Morrocroft Estates, the gated community in south Charlotte, Brenton Bersin attended an annual spring barbecue at a neighbor’s house.

Bersin and the other neighborhood kids would drink sodas and play football in the backyard while their parents ate and visited with their host – Panthers owner Jerry Richardson.

“He’s been scouting me out since I was 10,” Bersin said.

Bersin’s family lived two doors down from Richardson. And after a successful career at Charlotte Latin, Bersin chased Richardson’s receiving records at Wofford.

Now he’ll play for Richardson’s team.

Didn't know him personally, he was a few years behind me. But a good writeup on a local kid getting a tryout for the Panthers.

    • He should've been more than a JAG, but Jeremy Chinn.  I was convinced he was our next defensive star 
    • I see what you did there
    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
