I Googled it and also went to the John Boy web site, I also went to the Official Carolina web site..no news anywhere. I wish I had something to back this up because I really did hear them say this.

Yeah, you would think it would be all over the news or web by now. I figured you Charlotte guys would listen to the John Boy show on Fridays because that is when they do the football rundown.

I'll eat my Panther Hat if this turns out not to be true. You guys hold me to it, I heard what I heard.

I'd try salt and pepper with a dash of A1.

Has anyone heard that Fox has a new 6 year, 6 mil contract with the Panthers? I heard this on the John Boy and Billy show this morning from the Charlotte football writer who travels with the team. Says he was the first to get the news.

I came here today to see if it got posted or anyone was talking about it. I don't see anything or anybody saying nothing. So is it true or not?

Not doubting what you heard but it could have been a tongue in the cheek remark.Just trying to be sarcastic in a comical sense.They do a lot of that on the show.

That headline is confusing. Not being let go is quite different than being offered a job.....weird.

If this were reported anywhere this morning, by now it would be all over the place if it were true. And this board would have blown up and several posters would be hanging from the rafters already.

Hahah.

Also: The ESPN article means that they (all the coaches) won't be fired but that Fox won't be given an extension. The same thing that everyone has already knew was possible.

that was them saying fox was offered a 6mill dollar contract for next season, but that his contract ends then. which is information we already know. i have a feeling fox will go elsewhere and we'll end up with Cowher, which is why Cowher hasn't taken a job anywhere else yet. i know the Bills and the Buccs have offered him a job and he's turned them both down, or at least hasn't given them an answer yet. and if the Buccs are offering, they're offering a lot of $$$. but i think that at this point it's more about his family and the status of their teams. if i were Cowher, i'd take the job with a winning team and that's close to home, versus two horrible teams and are too far away from home.

ps: i'd personally like to see Fox return for 2010 however and see if he'll start Moore and get us to the Super Bowl.

I can't wait til this offseason is over and Fox is still our coach so all the Cowher fanatics will go away.

They will never go away until he comes here, coaches and delivers the same thing Fox delivered then and only then will they stop. :beatdeadhorse5:
