Brad Hoover to announce our 3rd round pick

[YoungPanthers89]

We should let AE announce our 2nd round pick.

Lets leave that to hurney or JR

[Mr. Scot]

This is part of a thing the NFL is doing which they refer to as having "legendary alumni" announce picks.

I guess Hoover is who they found most 'legendary' for us.

Wonder who's 'legendary' for the Jags and Texans.

[Mr. Scot]

Of all the Cowboys they could have picked, Charles Haley? :eek:

Sam Madison for the Dolphins? Over guys like Marino, Clayton and Duper? Heck even Zach Thomas?

And Troy Vincent for the Eagles? Really? :confused:

The 'alumni' part may be right, but on some of these, I don't think I buy the 'legendary' :nonod:

WHAAAAA? the pride and joy of WCU isn't a legend in your eyes? have shame.

Well, objectively speaking, who for the Panthers actually qualifies as "legendary"? :(

Hoover's a good choice, though for a "Mr. Panther" role I might say Mike Minter suits the bill better.

But no argument with Hoover. He's a great guy and I'm proud he was one of ours.

They could have also done Moose

[Mr. Scot]

I had the chance after a training camp practice to ask Hoover who his ugliest offensive lineman was. It cracked him up. He was three or four people down from me in line and still laughing :lol:

And yeah, Moose would be a good choice, but he was a player rep for the NFLPA (awkward) :sosp:

[ncbobcat]

Sweet, Hoover was my all-time favorite Panther. WCU alumni, of course. :D

[JawnyBlaze]

I think this is more of a matter of who they could get to agree to do it rather than picking and choosing who makes the announcements. Legendary Panther retirees: Kevin Greene and Reggie White first in my mind, even though they're not best known as Panthers. They coulda got Mills III too. I think Hoov is about as good a choice as anyone.

For JAX, Boselli would've been a good one - being he was their first draft pick. Jimmy Smith would've been good too, but I'm guessing off field stuff from recently eliminated him from that.

[Montsta]

I wouldn't mind seeing Rucker call ours out sometime in the future.

Brad Hoover was awesome! I liked when him and Nick Goings were the junkyard dogs of the Panthers.
