Richardson approaching Fox about his contract status?


Sapper

Recommended Posts

John Fox is a top 10 football coach, and his record proves it (compare stats since Fox took over, no brainer). Fox wants top 10 money, and Jerry Richardson is not willing to pay it. The Carolina Panthers will not have Fox after this season unless there is a massive change of heart in how much they are willing to pay Fox. The Panthers are clearly unwilling to pay him, so he is gone after this season, no if's, and's, or but's about it. Maybe they will hire a prominent coach, maybe they will promote from within, but whatever you think about it, remember this: There are no more than 9 coaches (probably less) with the success Fox has over his tenure.

This will become more painful as time goes on if there is not an upgrade at the HC position.

People are throwing that around a lot.... But where is the proof? Right now JR is not going to pay no one that is pretty clear and the reason is just as clear. He will have as little money on the line as possible in case of a lockout.

JR have never been cheap, hell he gave Pep over a mil pr game last season so I find it hard to believe he is to cheap to pay the man who have made the Panthers what is it. Lets get all this CBA poo out of the way and Fox is signed.... If he want to.

The JR is cheap is a myth.

I think you've almost answered your own post: "Right now JR is not going to pay no one that is pretty clear and the reason is just as clear. He will have as little money on the line as possible in case of a lockout."

I am not accusing JR of being "cheap". However, nothing has ever been presented to me, with logical reasoning, besides money, as being the reason for not re-signing John Fox. Is there another legit reason?

Well I just presented my theory. So yes its about money but not in the way you make it sound. And BTW the reason for my response in the first place is that you make it sound that JR will never be willing to pay him.

    • i think i go in the opposite direction of most. my ideal retirement is living in some old downtown area in a flat above some shop or something.  life out in the country was just something i got real tired of. My kids actually miss some of living out there, which i understand. that was where they grew up for the most part. 40 acres with a 2.5 acre pond. it was beautiful, but also way too much (and too expensive) for me to keep up with. 
    • FLASHBACK: I remember back when ESPN was just starting--he was their anchor.  They used to show stuff like Rodeo and field hockey--I remember laughing when he went to a commercial mocking a cycling competition in Utah (or something similar--I made that up) and I laughed.  I told my dad, "We may have us a new anchor when we get back from commercial."  When they came back from commercial, Berman was looking very serious and he said, "Any comments by me do not reflect the views of ESPN....The men and women who cycle are dedicated athletes and we are honored to shine light on their sport." (Paraphrasing).  Dad laughed hysterically. My first memory of him--and that was like 1980.
    • Might not have a team without them. Although that probably applies to the Panthers, too.
