If you’re going to make a claim, you’ve got to back it up with facts. While Charlotte has struggled on both sides of the ball this season, the offense has been putrid. Hunter broke down the struggles, in attempt to contextualize a situation that is a result of multiple factors (roster talent, injuries, lack of creativity and overall questionable play-calling). Access to all-22 film would help, but we don’t have that luxury – so here are the cold hard facts. Because numbers never lie, right?

Hunter and Jeremy are back at it, talking Charlotte's big payday against the No. 4-ranked Georgia Bulldogs on Saturday.

Outside of the gridiron, Hunter and Jay talked about the transfer portal window shifting, the impacts that it will have on Charlotte & CFB as a whole. Then, Hunter plugged his interview with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander from last week. #Charlotte49ers #Football #SGA #Transferportal
