OT: Belichick to UNC ??

I’m gonna go out in a limb and say UNC is going to do pretty well in the transfer portal this year.
They may not have enough players to play the bowl game and have a skeleton roster like Florida State last year. (Georgia 63, FSU 3).... BB is trying to lay the groundwork for Steve. Didn't work w/ Lou/Skip Holtz don't think it's work this time. Love Belichick but wish he'd stayed with the TV stuff where he is exceeding expectations
 
It was more than Mac
It was more than Mac and Cam:
Mac Jones Patriots 18-24
Vinnie Testaverde Browns 17-16
Bernie Kosar Browns 11-18
Matt Cassel Patriots 10-5
Cam Newton Patriots 7-8
Drew Bledsoe Patriots 5-13
Mike Tomczak Browns 4-4
Bailey Zappe Patriots 4-4
Jimmy Garoppolo Patriots 2-0
Mark Rypien Browns 2-1
Todd Philcox Browns 2-3
Jacoby Brissett Patriots 1-1
Eric Zeier Browns 1-3
Brian Hoyer Patriots 0-2
I don't think Brady would have been Brady without Belichick. You can do the same with Parcell's. Parcell's didn't win anything without Belichick. But in reality to be a good coach, you need good players.

Brady won a SB without Bill. Bill can't say the same. It was always Tom.
 
Another way to look at it is, having the great QB of all time doesn't hurt.
It also hurt that after Brady left, McDaniels and O'Brien kept leaving for other jobs and he made the absolute mind boggling decision to make Matt Patricia the OC. Towards the end, BB was no different than PP; great coach but too loyal to his friends.
 
That was a head scratcher for sure, but it was his call. I'm a Pats fan going back to Andre Tippet and Ronnie Lippet. Bill was great but Tom was the GOAT. Went to Tampa and proved who was the straw that stirred the drink. Without Tom, Bill got fired.

I'm hoping UNC doesn't cancel the 2026-27 series to try and get a higher-profile opponent, need to see us beat Belichick twice, especially at the Rent in his 3rd season

Anyone know his buyout?


Buyout (Coach Terminates Without Cause)

• Termination prior to June 1, 2025: $10 million
• Termination on or after June 1, 2025: $1 million
• Buyout amount shall be payable to the University within 180 days of the date of termination

Looks like Bill's main goal is King of UNC and setting his son up as his successor. The Bowl Game will be a great opportunity to drop a big turd in their punch bowl. Great coaches don't forget how to coach but they can end up in a poor fit or age out in terms of connecting with players. It just seems like Bill has a few competing priorities here and he rubs a lot of people the wrong way.
 
Going off the report that Bill has a "400 page bible" it seems like he's just going to be the figurehead and CEO of the operation and his son (+ other assistants will do most of the recruiting/coaching). I think this could work assuming the necessary money is there for his coaches, NIL, recruiting, etc.
I didn't read it that way in the least. I consider it to be, in essence, Belichick's demands. To take job. Essentially, it is a list of non-negotiables and getting preapproval of how he intends to run the program.

I would be willing to add a $1.5 million bonus clause to Mora's contract for making the CFP championship game. Just saying.

He has a tremendous defensive mind, but really struggled with building an offense towards the end, even when Brady was still there. But this isn’t the NFL - he could be successful I just don’t see it.

With that said, he is not stupid. Have to think he has assembled a ton of NIL fund commitments and that should get him some blue chip transfers.
 
The point of the article is, UNC wants out of the ACC, and they realize to save basketball and their athletic department they need to pour everything into football. And there's no bigger name to start that process.

This needs to be seen and read by every big east fanboy in our fan base. If UNC is going to treat basketball as secondary, what does that say
 
The real issue is that what Bill was phenomenal at the rest of the NFL caught up with him... which is to say tracking every one of their players on their training, nutrition, and the rest. The end of the run was Bill and Brady fumes and players coming on reputation
