Source:GM Hurney and coach Fox are likely to keep their jobs in 2010.

[scpanther22]

With coaching vacancies expected in Cleveland, Washington and Oakland, there is a big question about what will happen in Carolina. One source thinks coach John Fox and GM Marty Hurney, who each have a year left on their contracts, will keep their jobs. “I think [owner Jerry] Richardson would like to get rid of them, but I’m not sure he wants to pay off the $6 million he owes them.”

The only person who knows what's going to happen is the big cat and he doesn't talk to the media.

"One source thinks" so this means what? can I be a source with a thought too?

[George Shinnsplints]

Damn. $6 million is one hell of a buyout. Why can't Fox do the honorable thing and resign or "break" his finger?

[Mesmer]

Why do I feel like if they are willing to pay Peppers and Delhomme so much money that he won't care if he fires Fox and Hurney and has to pay them 6 million? Just a hunch..

[Snake]

LOL that has never stopped Richardson in the past...... I mean really it happens every.

I think just the opposite. It might cost JR more money to keep Fox here. The Panthers will lose millions alone on concessions at the stadium if Fox is back.

hahahahahahahhaha :out:

like any of us would say no to 6 million because someone wanted us to quit our jobs.

I dont care if I am the worst person ever at doing my job. There is no way I would quit and lose that money.

[KillerKat]

bet the source is Gantt trying to keep his hope alive! lol

One would hope.

This is the double edge of the PSL.

Stadium sells out reguardless. Thats upwards of 300-400 million right thar.

and how many fans have the football sense and desire to NOT buy beers and food in the stadium in an act of defiance.

[Kurb]

That actually sounds EXACTLY like some of the things Gantt has said recently.

Which means the total opposite will happen

I agree the money for selling the tickets will be there no matter what due to the PSL and the the fans at the game will still buy stuff. I am referring to the 30,000+ not even showing up. That hit alone at the concessions will probably be more than 6 million by itself.

True Bruce, I guess the most ridiculous thing is how pathetic it is that the guy gets paid $6 million every year to do this sh'ty of a job in the first place.
