Well as most of you have heard there will be a new USL team moving to Charlotte and they will begin playing in Memorial Stadium this spring. I'm excited about it, I plan to support them as much as I can. We need to if an MLS team will ever get here. We can use this thread to post updates about the team

I hate this name for starters. When I hear Charlotte Independence I think of the high school football team

Should have brought back the Carolina Lightnin'. Charlotte Independence is just awful.

 

That means somebody in a board meeting somewhere actually suggested "Charlotte Independence" and multiple people actually approved it. What's worse is people will automatically assume it is in reference to the high school which goes by Charlotte Independence in local sports media which will never allow the brand to get off the ground.

Here's a little read up on the Lightnin'. It could be argued that without the success of their inaugural 1981 championship season, Shinn doesn't get the inspiration around 1985 for the Hornets which in turn sparks JR's quest for an NFL team in the area starting in the early 90s.

 

Speaking of the Hornets, they were originally going to be called the Charlotte Spirit, but the name was so badly panned in the market they decided to change it. Unfortunately, I don't see the same fate for this Independence name.

The Carolina Railhawks might've had a problem with that.

 

The Lightin' ended up changing their name in their final season, to the Charlotte Gold. Which sucks, too. But not as bad as Independence.

 

That said, I'll still go to the games.

    • I didn't say much bigger. Watch the highlights I linked. Bryce doesn't have the arm strength and/or talent to make the vast majority of the throws Mac made in that video. 
    • Tetairoa McMillan.   The last 28 1st overall picks were either a QB, DE, or OT. Seeing as I don't think we'd take an OT in the 1st and give up on Ickey as an LT yet and there doesn't seem to be a clear overall #1 type of QB or DE pick this year, it very well could be a non conventional #1 overall this year, at least in regards from the last almost 3 decades of drafts. If we didn't have Horn, I'd be more open to Hunter as a CB at #1, but we have him so another CB wouldn't be how I'd use a #1 pick.  And as much as I love Legette, if we have SB contending aspirations, I don't think Legette is a #1 on a team like that, but he damn sure is an elite #2 on a team like that.  He's more of the Smith/Higgins/Waddle to Brown/Chase/Hill (in terms of role/impact, not style of play of course). T-Mac is going to be the top ranked WR on every team's board in the end.  He is going to be a true outside #1 WR who is viewed as a consensus Top 5 WR in the game by his second contract in the same way guys like Jefferson and Chase have done.  His height combined with his speed, athleticism, and hands are near impossible to find all in one player, there is a reason his generally used comp is Mike Evans (although as he's not as thick, I personally see him more as an AJ Green). Yes, as an Arizona alum I've admitted to having bias towards the player to begin with.  But he's also someone very widely being put into the Top 5 in mock drafts lately and most of them have him as the first non QB offensive player being taken, so it's not really THAT much of a homer pick on my part anyways. If a QB or DE truly separate themselves as being a can't miss prospect come draft day, I'm open to that discussion, but until then, or if it doesn't happen, T-Mac is my pick 100 times out of 100.
