UNC sells out tickets for Belichick's debut season

The arrival of Bill Belichick, who was hired in December, has led to North Carolina selling out its tickets for the upcoming football season, the school announced Wednesday.

Expect lots of below face tickets on stub hub in the second half of the mediocre season.

Read that UNC is ranked #12 in the ACC one ahead of BC. Seems a little optimistic or overstating the Belichick effect. Or pessimistic from BC's perspective.

I think with Bill they saw a different type of risk that you wouldn’t see in someone like Pete Carroll. Bill’s reputation was that he was a prickly pear and hard to deal with… some may say a real reactionary like the Sheriff of Malibu.

There was also the risk that like in Cleveland Bill could just up and get rid of the team’s highest paid star player…………and you wouldn’t want that to happen now would you…….?

 

[Huckleberry1]

Yes, we have.

They’ll have to line up behind Clemson and Florida State. Not to mention none of this is happening anytime soon, certainly not during Belichick’s tenure.

The only way Belichick gets to the SEC is if a position opens up at Vandy - and their first 4 choices all shoot them down.

How will Bill Belichick's debut season at North Carolina unfold? Game-by-game predictions for 2025 Tar Heels

There's plenty of intrigue and skepticism about whether Belichick's NFL success will translate to the college game

With a predicted 7 wins, don't be surprised if UNC plays at Fenway this December.

That would be cool and 7 wins doesn't seem unreasonable for year 1.

He sights his expectations and then goes into a angry rant. No idea why people hate Bill so much.

"Trying to impress his girlfriend" is insulting and personal, it has nothing to do with football analysis. But you are a BB hater too so having a civil discussion about a sports topic is not on your agenda.

Well maybe he is trying to impress her? Shrug. That’s not hate and neither am I

On a sports channel talking about sports reasons for BB's success or failure (objective analysis), that is hate. And it passed right by you because you have the same BB hate feelings. For someone who does not hate BB, it sticks out like a broken toe. For you BB personal insults, including his girlfriend, kids, grandkids, etc., is normal and acceptable.

Is the SEC good enough for UNC?

The Heels are winning back to back NCAA Championships. Every top recruit in the country will want to don the powder blues.

BB tried to model his interactions with the press and public after Parcells.

Parcells was only pleasant when he was miserable.
