GM -- TRACKING THE CANDIDATES

SOME INTERESTING STUFF HAPPENING HERE...

Has anyone been wondering what (exactly) is going on with the GM search and interviews..???  I know I have.  Apparently, the Panthers have been quietly moving forward with the process without releasing notes about the interviews.  I am not certain 'why', but there have been a number of interviews completed and some candidates are being asked to participate in second interviews, and yet little or no information has appeared from Panthers Central.

According to CBS Sports 'insider', Jonathan Jones, the Panthers "have "quietly entered" the second round of interviews..." and are moving forward with the process.

According to Sports Illustrated, quoting Tom Pellisaro, the Panthers have begun second interviews for GM. Names include Brandon Brown, Alex Halaby, and Dan Morgan. Others apparently remain on the list not having completed 'first' interviews yet .... OR possibly "opting out."

So, regardless of what we think or believe (or WANT to believe), it appears that the Panthers are moving forward with the GM search process. There were 10-12 candidates originally mentioned. Up to (maybe..?) seven of them have completed initial interviews. There is some indication that a couple of them (maybe..?) have dropped out. No indication officially about any of this, or who might be the leading candidate. Dan Morgan remains frequently mentioned...
