Proehl, a former Panthers wide receiver, will now serve as the team's wide receivers coach.

Proehl began his coaching career in 2011 as an offensive consultant for the team before serving as an assistant wide receivers coach in 2012.

He will now work as the position coach for a unit led by former teammate Steve Smithicon-article-link.gif, who recorded his seventh 1,000-yard season this year.

"Ricky brings a great technical understanding of the wide receiver position and has good insight on our personnel at the position," Rivera said. "I have been very impressed with his work over the past two seasons."

Proehl, by all accounts, has been an awesome coach so far. He was a very cerebral and intelligent player that used his smarts to make up for his physical shortcomings. Those types of players usually make the best coaches because they realize and can teach the little things that help you to be successful, since they weren't able to rely on raw talent for success.

    • It's going to take time to really evaluate new ownership. I still have some hopes that they can get us past the curse of the Jordan years. We got screwed over by the league with the lottery yet again, nothing in this draft was ever going to make people happy after that happened. 
    • The Hornets were screwed when they lost out on the #1 pick. Outside of Cooper Flagg this was a terrible draft class full of risky prospects and red flags. Kon Knueppel likely won't ever be a superstar - or even a star, realistically - but he can be a solid contributor for a long time in the league. That's actually more than I think will end up being the case for many of these players.
    • I guess we should disregard what all these places say about our draft? And just trust you guys on this board? And as far as the Mark Williams trade, most places are saying we got the much better end of that trade for what its worth to yall. Bleacher report has Kon a "B", BR has him C+, Fansided A-, NBC Sports overall draft an A-, Sports Illustrated overall A-, MSN has Kon a B+, Yahoo Sports has us at an A- overall. Here is what ESPN posted:  Post-Draft Analysis Knueppel's well-rounded perimeter game and terrific 3-point shooting ultimately won out in Charlotte's decision process, with the Hornets attracted to his fit with their current roster and his long-term potential. He should help stabilize their perimeter minutes immediately, with his dependability all season at Duke a major selling point. The Hornets were thought to be exploring moves here, but were content to simply grab their guy and move forward. This is a strong match that should pay off right away for both sides. -- Jeremy Woo
