It's Official. Hurney is the GM

A load of people said immediately after he was named interim GM that they knew it wasn't going to be temporary.

Probably would have been easier if the Panthers hadn't teased us by actually bringing in qualified candidates, but hey...

What still makes me shake my head more than anything is that the people running the team actually seem to believe they can fool people when everyone sees through them so easily.

This team's total lack of self-awareness is utterly pathetic.

think i was the first

Thank God they made the right call on this one instead of reaching for the shiny new object just because the media wants it.

Hurney is a HoF GM and #8 out of 90 modern GMs in drafting acumen. He is beloved throughout the organization, and it was tragic to see him nearly felled by false accusations.

Honestly, this forum needs a full purge of the dead-enders who are so locked into their Gettleboy fandom that they have begun rooting against the Panthers.

Send them all to a Giants forum; they'll be happier there.

Hall of fame GM? You don't even troll well

Why don't you fanboys still azzhurt over smitty and mean 'ol "gettledouche" go eff off and shave JR's legs?

I actually hate JR - he's a key reason this franchise has always been mediocre. But "mediocre" is the key word - he did protect us from Gettlechild's worst and most perverse impulses. Along with Ron, of course. Without those two we'd be the Browns, like the Giants are about to be.

I agree, but those would be his mistakes. Needs to put better staff in place to handle what he cant. At this point, its like your presidential candidate lost. We cannot hope he fails (and I don't think you hope he fails). 

One of the few front office moves he's made since returning was to fire a guy so that he could install Jerry Richardson's grandson in the position instead.

You have to remember that under Richardson, ability doesn't get you promoted. Loyalty does. That's not a good sign if you're hoping for competent staff.

Hope he fails? I'd explain it this way.

If I were to rent a Pauly Shore movie, I could certainly hope that it wouldn't suck. Unfortunately, history would tell me to expect that it will.

You really think that's out of consideration if he turns this mediocre sh*tpile around and we win LIII and, say, LV?

If he was HoF quality he would have been signed by another team after being let go, not doing a shitty radio show in Charlotte, NC.
