Hoover released...

[Ncstatefan]

just found out. This poo is f**king ridiculous. It's like we don't want to have a good team next season. just because we don't want to pay the nigga a couple extra million next season for being an elite blocking fullback? what kinda dumbshit logic is this, especially when there's no cap next season. I really can't believe this team sometimes. Makes me wonder why I even bother. Yes, I'm biased because Hoov was one of my favorite players, but f**k this team right now. Shoulda just stayed away from this site.

Hah you called Hoov a nigga

Makes sense to me. Looks as though the Panthers are happy with building up a corps of young talent. That is usually how teams succeed down the road. We only have three players over 30 now. We are developing talent.

These guys make personnel decisions as their career. I think they know a bit more than we do. I'm not happy with seeing Hoover go, but he was injured on and off, getting old, and we have depth at FB (which is a rarity in the NFL). Fiametta and Sutton show they have talent potential.

I'm saddened, but this is far from the worst thing the Panthers could do.

Hey You and Whats His Name during games this year. I just thought some levity would be in order here.

I know we're trying to develop fiametta and sutton to be Hoov's successors and I am well aware that the sky isn't falling, but how are these dudes supposed to learn how to become successful blocking fullbacks when you cut the veteran player they were supposed to be getting mentored by?

Where are these young fullbacks going to get their knowledge of the position from? Our coaching staff? lol We haven't developed a decent fullback in over a decade, and even then we got lucky with Hoover. Where is this random confidence coming from? We're suddenly pros at pumping out great blocking fullbacks? It's a stupid decision. Is it wrong that I hope we regret this?

I'm liking this cuthroat stuff from the Panthers. Say anotha mothafuging word, I dare you!

You CAN'T keep 3 FB's on a roster and be successful. If you keep Hoover, you have to release one of the other guys. I liked what I saw in Sutton and Fiametta has a ton of upside.

They made the right choice.

I hope Fiametta get's some hands.

I like what I saw from Hoover...

production > potential

[Cold Cat]

so now we can't yell Hoooooooovvvvv!!! or Moooooooose! at the stadium anymore? this is a lot to take in one season!

It is an attempt to keep BOA even more quiet. I think they want us to be like Golf Fans. Clap after something has happened no matter the team doing it and stay in our seats.

sutton is a HB :yesnod: he filled in at FB when fiametta and Hoover were hurt, he is the smallest guy we have, so no, we do not have 3 FB's

[megadeth078]

Tyrell Sutton is 5'8'' 213 pounds

He is NOT a fullback

I love Hoover but his body has got to be in complete agony. He takes a beating during the games and probably would have retired anyway. But the team should have taken a different approach and tell them their intentions and let him walk away
