Andrew Luck staying in school? (Peter King Rumor)

[Mr. Scot]

Yup and I'm sure Luck will consider what happened to Locker when he makes his decision... Locker cost himself millions and millions of dollars by going back to school.

Luck reportedly stated that what happened to Jake Locker will not factor into his decision-making.

In response to that statement, I was quoted as saying "yeah, right" :sosp:

[Mr. Scot]

but they wont fire him if that was the case he would be long gone by now...So I'm thinking they wont do poo until his contract ends.

Other teams will be scrambling for available coaches the minute the season ends. If the Panthers waited, they'd screw themselves.

And it's no longer a matter of paying Fox six-million for nothing. Once the season is over, what are you paying him for? Wrap up meetings?

I agree. They are being professional until next Monday when they tell Fox goodbye and then get on the phone to schedule interviews.

Remember, every team has to interview a minority coach before making a decision.

I hope so but I dont trust the FO to do anything logical at the moment.

We have three candidates we can interview immediately.

This will be the first time the Panthers have been subject to that rule.

If Andrew Luck stays in school, i would have no clue who to pick that is worthy of a number 1 overall selection. It would have to be a toss up between AJ Green or Peterson. Trading down would be tough. Is Locker worth talking about this year as an option? I mean the guy plays with a crap offensive line and no real skill position players, and he has talent.

[Mr. Scot]

Based on what we can see of the current state of their working relationship, I think Jerry Richardson would happily help Fox clean out his office and might even offer to drive him home.

[Carolina Husker]

Locker was not the consensus number 1 before he decided to come back.

[KBRed]

Harbaugh and Luck can't really come out and say they are both going to the NFL with the Bowl game on the line for Stanford. That would only discourage the team and the fans in this hyped up moment for them.

Relax...it's only politically correct ways of answering questions.

Here's to Luck/Harbaugh 2011 !!!

[err456]

Fox will be ready to leave .01 sec. after the season as well. He will be looking for a new team.

He may jog off the Georgia Dome field into the Falcons locker room post game, he's so done.

I will keep a eye on the sideline for a packed suitcase/

Peter King also said he saw Harbaugh as most likely to be the Panthers coach next year.

And if Harbaugh is the Panthers coach, then Luck will be the Panthers QB.
