Panthers owner David Tepper buys John Fox’s Quail Hollow mansion for $5.35 million

https://charlotte.axios.com/234660/panthers-owner-david-tepper-buys-john-foxs-quail-hollow-mansion-for-5-35-million/

That isn't his primary residence.  That basically his apartment for when he shows up in Charlotte.   He just bought a 70 million dollar home in FL.

They fuged with the wrong guy 

Mike Florio said Tepper would walk away from this back on Tuesday

[Mr. Scot]

My personal pipe dream is that the NFL forces Stephen Ross to sell the Dolphins and Tepper decides he'd rather own them than the Panthers.

There was a rumor that one of the Walton family heirs might be interested in buying the Broncos. Maybe he could take the Panthers from Tepper instead. Don't remember the exact amount, but his reported net worth made Tepper look like a small business owner.

 

 

(I can dream)

Tepper is going to turn the entire state of SC against the Panthers by the time the season starts.

Smart business move.

Tepper probably realized he can just have training camp in Charlotte and that all the SC stuff was pointless fluff that wouldn't impact his bottom line.  Jerry wanted to be in SC.  Tepper probably realizes it isn't needed.  He can just burn Wofford and then RH and it not actually impact him.

So it's an 800M project, Rock Hill bids 250M to have it in Rock Hill becuase they really want it there, they make a deal with the team, they renege, and somehow Tepper is the scummy person here

Two sides to the story right now and we don't have the truth. 

RH claims Tepper's plans have impacted the ability to secure the bonds.  And he refuses to talk to them.   If true, that wouldn't just be RH being a bad actor. 

Truth normally in the middle.

No but at least NC will value what the franchise brings to the region and honor  whatever is agreed upon

RH politicians will put all the blame on Tepper and get re-elected.

They will certainly know what’s at stake if they don’t. 
 

Its times like these that I wish Darrin Gantt was able to really speak his mind.

RH missed a deadline to issue bonds, the deadline was extended, they missed that too.  They were talking that whole time.    Then they pointed fingers at Tepper. 

The real sad part, there were a lot of communities around Charlotte who would love to have this project and wouldn't keep dicking the Panthers around, default on their obligations, blame everyone but themselves, and then complain that Tepper won't keep talking with them when all they want to talk about is how they aren't going to meet their obligations...and "hey you're a billionaire could you cover it?"

Its a dick move.

Tepper should have chosen a different community.  Its clear whatever RH is offering at this point, it will be hard to trust them.
