This. Honestly, this news generated lots of activity from our fan base. We've had some record setting days for traffic on PantherTalk. I'm sure Doug saw the opportunity to milk that a bit with a couple of names that were easy. Damon Evans has been discussed at length on our message board for over a year now and was an easy followup. Hartwell has been discussed as having something we needed. He seems to do things right. And he's also been discussed at length on our message board.

President Becker has said it's far too early to name prospects in this and he is planning on hiring a search firm to aid in the process. I'm not thinking he has too many people in mind when he's hiring professionals to come in and show him people good for the job. I'll take a wait and see approach.
