Since Rhule had final authority over the roster and players and coaches...... There was no real reason to get Fitterer involved. (I guess...??).
But he clearly said that the other two was on Wilks. And he never even mentioned that he had a GM (or I missed it)
Glad we have music in Charlotte though.

Well, so was Matt Rhule, Ed Foley, and Phil Snow early this morning.

Anybody else think his head was gonna explode when he heard “Rock Hill”? Hehe! Trying to find the fun in it all.
I do this with life. I’m sure all u vets will know this line, “Embrace the suck.”
Like I said somewhere else.... Steve Wilks is nobody's fool. Phil Snow and Ed Foley were Rhule's "Homeboys". There would have been no love lost on the field. Wilks did exactly what he needed to do to keep peace and generate some enthusiasm (hopefully..). I think the team (and the players, obviously..) will quickly get the message...... "There's a new sheriff in town". No more Mr. Nice Guy.... It's time to move forward.
