Message: [QUOTE="freescooter, post: 5347064, member: 1023"] I think it is a bit early to judge Belichick just yet. In some ways this reminds me of Sanders’ first season at Colorado. I think they were 4-8 and looked a mess. They were somehow expecting a year 1 miracle. Those happen but not that often and when they do there is often a bit of backsliding in future years. In some ways it is like the situation with Arch Manning. Expectations were raised because of who the people were. They didn’t do a lot of pumping up the expectations beyond pretty typical stuff. Oh and if Belichick was still with his wife there wouldn’t be as much nonsense. I don’t know if he will be a great college coach. Some guys make the transition better than others. And some places are easier than others. I suspect despite all the pr, UNC is first and foremost a basketball school. That’s how the athletic dept and the fan base thinks even if they don’t realize it. If you offered them a football championship every year and no more basketball titles or a basketball title every 10 years and no football ones I am pretty sure which one most UNC fans and athletic administrators would take [/QUOTE]
