Panthers interviewing Ron Rivera

[KSpan]

Kasay retirement is the only legit thing I can think of.

The timing is a bit interesting I think, whether this is the reason or not... why Tuesday and not tomorrow?

[GRWatcher]

I'm not sure there's a better FO at keeping quiet or misdirecting about what they're doing exactly or how they're thinking than ours.

We won't know until it happens, then we'll know.

And you idiots thought the run-first offense, defend the run was all John Fox. rofl!!

another note, even with the rooney rule the Panthers find a way to not interview anybody that's black

How do you know that?

Considering Hurney said he hasn't scheduled anything with anyone yet.

I think they're off on mondays so it stays in tune with the season. Gives them a day to decompress and enjoy their familes. Big changes coming.

[GRWatcher]

There's also end-of-season physicals, etc. tomorrow. A lot to get done.

Season's over, plenty of time for families now.

However, it's the day after the Stanford game...

I'll assume you're joking.

For the record, the Panthers interviewed both Tony Dungy and Ted Cottrell at a time when there was no Rooney Rule.

[Mr. Scot]

And Mods, given that this has been proven to only be a rumor, might a thread title change be in order.

[Squirrel]

Changed but given the fact I think Hurney is blowing smoke I wouldnt be surprised if it was true. Hurney most likely set the interview before getting permission and now looks bad.

Not quite what I was expecting, but it works I suppose

[Squirrel]

Like I said this is the time of disinformation.

[top dawg]

Why is the Rooney Rule mentioned so often in this forum? It really has no appreciable bearing in this situation. Richardson is going to hire the best person that he believes can do the job. Let it go.

Because the Panthers have to interview a minority. Its a NFL rule.

Squirrel. I think we all know that. No need to mention it at every turn. It doesn't mean that we have to hire a person of color.

I'm just saying that this preoccupation with the Rooney rule on this forum seems kind of weird, and I would almost be willing to bet that out of all the team forums whose coaches won't be back, this one probably mentions it the most, and it's really unnecessary.
