"I got real good at covering there, because a linebacker is almost like a linebacker/safety in the Canadian league. It showed off my sideline-to-sideline speed with the field being so big, and on special teams I dominated." Kenny Onatolu

I really like this guy, I know he has been signed for awhile, but a new article on Panthers.com was pretty good.

He claims to have sideline to sideline speed, but his combine stats i looked up had him at a 4.86. that is pretty slow for a LB that can cover. I know in the CFL multiple guys can motion while heading towards the LOS, so LBers have to cover like crazy.

good st guy. Happy to have him.

God forbid, I think if our Core LBers go down again, he will shine as a starter. I don't want to see him shine as a starting LB, but starting 8 different LBers last year due to injuries was too much to deal with. But he seems to be a tackling machine on ST, so i think he would be a good run stopper as a LB, adds good depth to the LB spot that was plagued by injuries last year.

He made a scene on this other football forum I belong to. Literally had and account called something like 'KennyOnatoluMVP' and was boasting about how good he was and that not only was he there for special teams, but that he could be a starting linebacker haha.

Wow, speaking of the devil.

I was just browsing this exact forum and it looks like he's back. http://www.footballsfuture.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=493517

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
