I have no doubt that there has been some discussion of what a long term contract might look like.
But a number of posters have suggested that Carolina is not concerned about the large required QO, because a long term deal has already been agreed upon.
My point is simply that no long term could have been agreed upon. If is has been, it’s cap circumvention.
