Bill Belichick Rides Again: Hired at North Carolina to build NIL NFL Factory

Featured Replies

So what is considered success with this hire?  National championship?  Win 9-10 games a year?  I am most curious if the NIL he gives out plus the idea of him helping players get “NFL ready” will appeal to young kids or not.  If I was a defensive back I would love to learn from Belichick but not sure most kids realize how good he is at teaching that position.

    You think Belichick's been on a bender? I'm on a mission to expose what's really been going on at Surly Horns. And now, I'm ready to share it with the world.

I...just do not understand this hire from either direction.

Belichick has never coached in college ever. North Carolina needs a full rebuild. What is going on?

And he names somebody as his General Manager? A college football General Manager? Huh?

This is the more sophisticated version of the Colorado experiment with Sanders. We may as well remove all references to the football players being students. 

You know ol Mack absolutely hates this. Being replaced by a guy with skins on the wall won’t be good for his ego.

You hater. She loves him. No way she is interested in a 72yo multimillionaire for any other reason.

gonna go under 2 years for this hire.  Will he even travel to recruit, or just stay in Carolina?  Can't see him doing the recruiting.

If nothing else it'll be fun to follow , maybe we get some Mack Brown meltdowns 

And yes, hopefully many more 'Jordon Hudson' pics to come out

She's a lot cuter without the PS and bazillion filters. Doesn't even look like the same chick. 

Mack Brown fucked up  by not having his step son as the coach in waiting

Herm Edwards fucked up at ASU not having his son as the coach in waiting too

He isn't winning a title at UNC lmfao.

Yeah I think some ACC contending seasons and playoff bids and they'd be happy and he gets to put off retirement for a few more years.

Bill Belichick's record without Brady is 83-101 (45%) ...he ain't winning shit at UNC.

Most overrated coach in NFL history.

There was no Joe Jamail to go kiss up to and stop it from happening this time.

This is crazy and interesting. Football Xs and Os wise he can outcoach every person in that conference. Dabo and Manny Diaz are doing shit if Belichick gets them figured out. Just going to come down to if he can get the players there to do it. Since that's a shit conference with only 1 or 2 legitimately good teams he has a chance. 

Will be interesting to see what his staff looks like.

NFL is a whole different beast. What is his recruiting going to look like? Is UNC ponying up big NIL to give him weapons? 

Belichick loses more knowledge about coaching football every time he shits than Deion has ever had in his life. So if Deion can scrape together enough to be competitive in the shit Big 12 I don't see how this would be much different. 

He was too fucking old to be an NFL HC. No way this is going to work

I see you bought into the hype. 

Belichick had 1 winning season in Cleveland before landing the Pats job.  Patriots went to the playoffs in 3 of the previous 4 seasons with an average record of 10-6...in the year before he arrived (Pete Carrol's last year) they dipped to 8-8.  In Bill's first year he went 5-11 ...coincidentally the same as he'd done in Cleveland the previous year.  Then along came Brady (who only got a shot because Bledsoe got injured) and viola Bill is the greatest coach ever.  Then Brady goes to TB and Bill goes back to sucking ..ie 43% win rate over final 4 years after Brady leaves. 

Meanwhile, Brady leads the previously 7-9 Bucs to a Super Bowl championship in his first year with the team.  

But sure, Belichick is a great coach

Everyone in the NFL is terrible without a QB.

Not saying he is a great coach, but look at Tampa’s d that year. Brady was a slightly better version of Manning with Broncos. 

So, this will be more like Bill Walsh at Stanford after his years with the 49ers rather than his years at Stanford before the 49ers?

If you can only win with Brady, you are not a good coach.  Minnesota is killing it with Sam f'ing Darnold.  And Sean Payton is winning with Bo Nix.  

Belichick will fail at UNC.  Book it.

Can a mod save this thread title and edit in a Chapel Bill joke?

I’m pretty sure at Shaggy during the post-Mack coaching search, there were wishful jokes about replacing Mack with Belichick, and here we are. Life imitating whatever that was.

Maybe he’ll hire Brady as his OC/QB coach.

His defenses were amazing. Tom Brady single handedly beat the Greatest Show on Turf and Sean McVay's 2018 Rams offense by leading the Pats to 20 (six of those 20 being on a pick six) and 13 points respectively? And that does not even mention what Belichick did in Super Bowl XXV against the Bills.

This is stupid. Unless Brady also played defense, I don't see how you look at the Pats and just go 'oh yes this was a one man team that just outscored everybody every game'

I just do not believe if Tom Brady had been drafted by 2000 Washington Redskins instead that Norv Turner and Dan Snyder would currently have Six Super Bowl victories. Tom Brady went into a good situation that allowed him to do what he did. Besides Snyder would have cut Tom Brady to get Jeff George anyway.

It's hilarious.  NC hired someone who outshines Mack, who doesn't have to pretend to like Mack when he retires and tries to hang around the program, who has enough money himself and gravitas with boosters that Mack can't effectively undermine him from afar.  He has got to be seething.

All that said, it still probably won't work...unless....unless they find some big spenders to coin up their NIL?  I could see them winning the ACC at some point.

He's already making excuses for why his replacement will be better. He made sure everyone knows, "I had 4 million in NIL, the next guy will have 12 million" in his final presser.

Matt Cassel.

His downfall is that he’s a terrible GM, not coaching.

If anything, at least UNC hired a coach without some dumb fucking buyout they can't afford.

One good year and look who's out here on their cloud of judgment, handing out ACC life lessons.

Clown was able to railroad this the first time it happened in Austin. Not so this time around. 

He's a whopping 8 months younger than Mack Brown.  This is a terrible idea on all fronts.

Bill Belichick: come play for me sonny. I coached hall of fame legends such as Mike Vrabel, Tedy Bruschi, and Ty Law.

 

Some kid: Who? Just put the money in the bag old man. Or don't. I have more meetings.

Aaaaaaand, she’s flexible.

Agile and bendy receiver with elite footwork and balance. Finds ways to get open and attract balls. A coach's dream. 

 

This is either going work like gangbusters and Bill will have the NFL pipeline academy set up and cranking in NC in a couple years, or its gonna be an abject disaster followed by the drama of whatever happens to the "coach in waiting" 

Can't wait to find out which one, plus in the meantime gonna get all the pics of his girlfriend, it's a winner all around really
