@JElder we're likely not going to come to an agreement on this.
I have no issue with the way they run the panther program. It's their program they can do what they wish. My issue is when you make an observation about it being very legacy and former player and their kids/friends driven, and not too open to outside talent, people go crazy, even though it's true.
Just look me in the eye and say "yeah, he played here and we asked him to coach to teach the kids the Elder system. There are some players better than his kid, but his kid is going to be on the top team, sorry". Don't play me for a fool and go through all of this song and dance. Just shoot me straight.
And when people never shoot me straight on this topic, it reassures that what I see is actually happening. But anyway, it's time to move on.
