Panthers Hire Accorsi As Consultant For Gm Search


Panther Pride

Recommended Posts

After firing their former sports reporter general manager, the Panthers hired another one to help look for his replacement.

The Panthers announced that former Giants general manager Ernie Accorsi (who worked at the old Charlotte News among other newspaper stops) would consult owner Jerry Richardson in looking for a replacement for Marty Hurney.

Accorsi will begin immediately, and will help prepare a list for Richardson so a new GM can be hired after the season.

The two have a long relationship, as the Giants and the Steelers are the two franchises Richardson has tried to model his after since he joined the NFL.

Same guy who recommended Thomas Dimitroff, definitely a step in the right direction.

Welcome back Panther Pride.

Good choice for you guys. Accorsi did well for us while he was here so he should know a thing or two about what makes a good GM.

I'm hearing rumbles about you guys looking at Marc Ross or Abrams. Seems like every GM-needy team in the league is trying to poach from the Giants FO.

It would be nice to have a guy that doesn't believe that running backs are worth 55 million.
