Meet--JOHN LILLY---NEW TIGHT ENDS COACH

The Panthers have announced the hiring of the TE Coach for the coming season.  John Lilly has been in coaching for 30 years, but only two years in the NFL.  He comes here from UNC-CH. Has some history with James Campen, and Thomas Brown when he was with the Browns and at Georgia.

Here is the story....

PANTHERS.COM:  Panthers Add TE Coach, John Lilly

This is supposedly the last coach to be hired.... at least on the Offensive side of the ball.  I really think there will be some more "assistants" added before all is said and done.  Not sure about the Defensive coaches...???

I like this hire… at least what it might present… UNC basically used their TE’s as wr’s and they were very involved in the passing game there.
