Tim Donnelly from 99.9 FM The Fan discusses the potential worries and decisions that fans may face as the Carolina Panthers search for a new coach.
>> YOU CAN’T JUST LET. >> CAROLINA PANTHERS FANS AND NOW TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT’S NEXT AFTER OWNER DAVID TEPPER FIRED COACH FRANK TEMPLE IN JUST A MEDIA LATER THIS MORNING ABOUT THIS LATEST FIRING AND WHAT’S NEXT FOR THE TEAM? WE WILL ADDRESS THE ISSUE RIGHT NOW WITH 9, 9, 9, THE FANS, TIM DONNELLY. TIM, GREAT TO HAVE YOU BACK ON THE PROGRAM. MY FRIEND. LISTEN, FRANK, OUT AFTER 11 GAMES AS THE TEAM’S LEADER. ONLY ONE WIN. WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THE FIRING AND THE TIMING? WELL, THE TIMING OF THAT TO ME, IT’S ALL ABOUT LOSING TO TENNESSEE. >> I AFTER AFTER LOSSES, THEY’VE HAD PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITIES THAT THE DIFFERENCES, TENNESSEE IS NOT A VERY GOOD TEAM. THEY HAVE A QUARTERBACK THAT WAS DRAFTED IN THE SECOND ROUND WHEN WHEN BRYCE YOUNG WAS TAKEN NUMBER ONE OVERALL. SO THE EMBARRASSMENT, I TO DAVID TEPPER LITTLE BIT AND EVEN SOMEONE HAD TO PAY FOR AND THAT ENDS UP BEING FRANK RIGHT. >> SO, LISTEN, WE WILL KNOW THAT THAT BRYCE YOUNG’S TEMPERS GUYS SO MOVING FORWARD, HOW DOES THIS HELP BRYCE YOUNG? >> WELL, THE THING IS THE NUMBER ONE OVERALL PICK QUARTERBACK SHOULD BE EVERYONE’S GOT SHOULD BE. DAVID TEPPER’S GUY WHO SHOULD BE THE GM WAS NOT DUSK OUTFITTERS GUICE BE THE HEAD COACHES, GUY. SO THEN THE NEXT YEAR, THE NEXT 2 YEARS, 3 YEARS HAS TO BE ABOUT FINDING OUT THE THINGS THAT THE PLAYERS TO THE GAME PLAN THAT BRACING NEEDS TO BE SUCCESSFUL AND BUILDING THAT FROM THIS POINT FORWARD AND YOU KNOW, THAT MIGHT BE THE OPTIMISTIC THING ABOUT MOVING ON FROM FRANK IS NOW RIGHT. THE YOU FIND SOMEONE WHO LOVES LOVES BRYCE YOUNG AND HIRED HIM TO BE THE NEXT COACH AND IT MIGHT HELP HIM OUT YET. SO LISTEN, IT. DAVID TEPPER. >> A LOT OF PEOPLE WHEN I LISTEN TO YOUR PROGRAM AND I MISSED A LOT OF TALK WITHIN THE LAKE, THE COMMON DENOMINATOR IT THROUGH THIS WHOLE CHAOTIC MESS IS DAVID TEPPER. >> IT ABSOLUTELY IS. AND UP TILL THIS POINT, THERE’S NOT A LOT THAT WOULD MAKE YOU SAY HE’LL PICK SOMEONE BETTER. IT IS NOW OVER 2 AND HIRING IF YOU’RE NOT A FAN OF SCOTT FITTERER IS OVER ONE AND HIRING GM SAND AND NOT TO MENTION HE’S HE’S BEEN THE OWNER FOR 6 SEASONS AND HAVE 6 LOSING BUT THE AGAIN RIVER LOOKING FOR OPTIMISM, WHICH IS WHAT I TRY TO DO RIGHT MORNING OPTIMISM WORKED. HE’S BEEN WILDLY SUCCESSFUL AND MOST BUSINESSES. HE’S BEEN A PART OF SO SO MAYBE HE’S LEARNING HOW TO BE AN OWNER IN THE NFL AND HE’S LEARNING, YOU KNOW, ALL RIGHT. THAT DIDN’T WORK. HE IS ALL NIGHT BY PROCESS OF ELIMINATION WILL BE BETTER AT THIS TIME. YEAH, I GET WHY ALL OF THE YOU KNOW, ANGRY STARES WAY. LOOKING AT DAVID TEPPER RIGHT NOW AND AND MAYBE THINKING FRANK IS PAYING THE COST OF OF SOMEONE ELSE’S MISTAKE. RIGHT? >> SO IS IT WILL MAKE GREG OLSEN’S INTO HIS HEAD. COACHING GIG. I LOOK AT IT IS IS NOT REALISTIC. HE OBVIOUSLY IS A LEGEND. OBVIOUSLY A FAN FAVORITE. OBVIOUSLY A SMART GUY. >> I THINK THAT THE PANTHERS PROBLEMS ARE REAL RIGHT THERE, COMPLICATED THEIR MULTIFACETED. BUT THIS IS NOT A, YOU KNOW, GET A GUY IN THERE THAT CAN MAKE A GREAT SPEECH AND AND UNDERSTANDS THE GAME YOU NEED. YOU NEED SOMEBODY THAT, YOU KNOW, CAN CAN LOOK AT ALL ELEMENTS OF THEIR ROSTER, ALL EVENTS OF THE OFFENSE AND DEFENSE HAS EXPERIENCE COACHING. SO IF YOU WANT TO COME ON AS A TIGHT ENDS COACH ISIS, I DO IT ON YOUR CONTRACT. IF HE’S LOOKING TO BE THE HEAD COACH, I SAY YOU KNOW WHAT, YOU’RE MAKING A LOT OF MONEY IN THE BROADCAST BUSINESS. WHAT? WHY DON’T YOU STAY OVER WE’D LOVE TO HAVE YOU, YOU KNOW, ON THE FIELD OR NAP TIME FOR SOME CEREMONIES. BUT BUT THE HEAD COACHING JOB HAS TO GO TO SOMEBODY WITH A LITTLE BIT COACHING EXPERIENCE. EVERY CAN’T WAIT TO LOOK FORWARD TO TALKING ABOUT WHAT THEY DOING ON SUNDAY IN TAMPA NEXT TUESDAY. WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR REALLY QUICKLY? I MEAN, YOU SAID A LOT I MEAN, I HATE TO BRING THIS GUY UP TO SPENCER’S FANS, RIGHT? WHEN YOU’RE TALKING. TAMPA BAKER, MAYFIELD’S HEALTH IS GOING TO BE A BIG PART OF IT. BUT ALSO LOOK FOR SOMETHING I CALL THE ONE-GAME BOMB ANYTIME A COACH GETS FIRED AND A BELOVED ASSISTANT TAKES OVER AND EVERYBODY RALLIES AROUND THEM REALLY FOR FOR ONE GAME. SO EXPECT VERY, VERY HIGH ENERGY FROM THE PANTHERS AS THEY THEY CHASED THAT ONE GAME BUMP TO MAKE SURE THE GUYS THAT ARE LEFT ARE MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION WHERE YOU CAN CATCH THE DRIVER. TIM DONNELLY WEEKDAY AFTERNOONS AM FEE TO 6 IN 99 AND THE FAN. LISTEN TO HIS PODCAST.
