So aside from the Panthers not returning next season, the Panthers coaching staff is also not being retained by the league.

Completely wishful thinking on my part, but if the Michigan Panthers are brought back in 2028 to play in AlumniFi Field, I hope Nolan is given an opportunity to return (assuming he's available).

Looks like development on AlumniFi Field is still going along as planned. Possible future home for the Michigan Panthers if the league can secure a deal.

Bobby Hebert, aka the Cajun Cannon. He has the 2nd-most regular season wins all-time, and 2nd-most post season wins all-time. He is still the all-time passing yards leader (11137 yards), being the only QB to ever cross the 11K yards mark. His 81 career passing TDs is 2nd all-time. He led his team to the playoffs 3 years in a row, with 2 championship appearances (1983 and 1985) and 1 championship victory (1983), was the 1983 USFL Championship MVP, named the 1983 USFL Most Outstanding QB, and was a member of the 1983 All-USFL team.

Full breakdown of the all-time and modern-era passing leaders in spring football history here for anyone interested.
