Panthers bring in Montgomery for 2nd interview

[philit99]

Whelp, I guess it will be 2025 until we compete again.

Rhule and Tepper are an absolute joke.

That, I get.  The logic behind the power run game in 2022 is the part that's baking my noodle.

yeah so like rhule has been blathering on about this as his ideal offense since he got here

most coaches who are stuck in this frame of mindset for offense and are determined to prove it’s still the way at least have the decency to offer up coachspeak publicly, “yeah well you always wanna cater your offense around your guys’ skill set and not get stuck into any one frame of mind.”

rhule openly pines for a game manager QB and an offense catered around the run game.

Can he bring Jonathan Taylor with him. Lol. This guy was a terrible OC at Maryland and now he's gonna fix Rhules putrid offense. 

 

[Mr. Scot]

Aaahhh, hell

[vorbis]

I didn't know who this guy was so I looked into what he's done in his career. I'm sorry, I'm not seeing it.

sure he is on an upward trajectory as a pro coach and may have a bright future, but I am not seeing any kind of track record that indicates an NFL OC who will make a meaningful difference in the 2022 Panthers. in fact the opposite. each time he has been given a more significant role, he has not driven positive results at all. absolutely no signs of him excelling as a play-caller.

good record of success as a position coach in the NFL, but as OC at Duke his offenses were barely in the top 1/3rd of scoring in the NCAA. as HC at ECU his offenses got worse, and by the end of his 3 years (9 wins in 3 years btw) his scoring offense was in the bottom 20% of the NCAA.

as OC at Maryland the next two years this same pattern emerged. bottom 20%, then bottom 1/3rd of NCAA in points per game.

I am not seeing any kind of momentum for him blossoming as OC of the Panthers.

I knew that name sounded familiar. Scottie Montgomery was ECUs coach after they shitcanned Ruffin McNeil. He went 9-26 lol. Perfect tank commander after they fire Rhule.

WHO THE fug IS SCOTTIE MONTGOMERY?! Momma always told me never trust a grown man named Scottie, or Billy, or Joey or whatever. Not exactly the “rockstar” we were promised, is he?

Just know he ran ECU into the ground.

Not going to panic until he's announced as the hire, but bringing him in for a second interview doesn't bode well.

Not even getting Pep on a Zoom call makes me think we're in desperation recruiting mode more than interview mode

[Shocker]

Would be a legit great hire.  Not opposed to him at all

Yeah right…this would be the most amazing ridiculous hire in NFL history 

My last small bit of hope for Rhule is that he gets this OC hire right.  This is NOT the guy

LOL…the post of the young year.  ECU has been terrible forever…he kept them where they were

[WOW!!]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottie_Montgomery

He has no NFL OC experience.. None!!

This is fuging stupid...

[Jon Snow]

Rhule finally found someone willing to take the job. He found someone that is willing to be a yes man and wouldn't be a threat to take his job. 

There's still a couple more deck chairs to fill on this sinking ship. Better get to work Rhule time is running out.
