The Bill megathread (HC at UNC, girlfriend, etc.)

[sb1]

 

[Bill Lee]

Well, I gotta fess up when I'm wrong on something. Michael Lombardi had me completely fooled. I thought he was a co-architect of two dynasties the way he presented himself. Turns out he was a pool boy... Or something like that. Sorry, I'm baked. lol

The article is a buzz-kill for UNC fans...

If there’s one thing that Belichick and Lombardi still don’t seem to understand at the college level, it’s that, unlike in the NFL, negative attention matters not just to current players and recruits, but also to donors and administrators who make the whole thing run.

At this point, North Carolina isn’t the NFL’s 33rd team; it’s the ACC’s 14th team, according to its record.

This won’t last much longer, he’s gonna be fired with cause in days.

 

[XLIX]

If I'm UNC, I don't hold him to the buyout. I let him know we're perfectly happy to part ways right now and everyone's free and clear.

 

[Bill Lee]

Well the NCAA is slow as molasses where discipline goes. I mean it was just 2 months ago that they issued a show cause order for Jim Harbaugh, and he’s been in LA with the Chargers for over a full season. So I don’t see the NCAA coming to UNC’s aide.

Naw, but if they do decide to dump Bill for cause UNC literally has a school full of lawyers they can use to build and defend the case. They don't need NCAA to do the heavy lifting for them.

This might genuinely be the worst coaching tenure in the history of football.

With $20 million on the line, it ain't like Belichick is going to hiring Mona Lisa Vito to represent him.

Like I said if the recruiting violations are legit, he's in trouble.... but they will need more than just misappropriated sideline passes...

TWEET OF THE DAY: People are talking about how UNC should go out and pursue Marcus Freeman, when someone gave us this gem:

I can't wait to read how the True Believers spin their alternative facts.

 

[Bill Lee]

For those who don't xitter, there is a lot more in the thread:



Clearly this is all lies and fake news and disinformation, everything's going just fine in Chapel Hill, Bill and Fat Mike have it all under control, nothing to see here.

Baghdad Bill says nothing to see here.

Bill's judgement is really clouded by the younger woman. Won't happen, but he needs to cut ties with her.

Sure, but a university's reputation is something you can't put a price on.

 

[raduray]

So one of ponytail's guys is the fall guy for all UNC's failures. Cris Carter would be proud.

I think it's more likely they suspect him of being a source for the news story.

Pretty certain the usual suspects will appear, Kraft, et al., but they may have to add a few from below the Mason-Dixon Line.

If Bill exits UNC TB12 can do something out there in Vegas that would be hilarious…just sayin!



Relax cult it’s a joke lmao

She's the proverbial dragon lady. His downslide in New England (late 2021-2023) coincided with the start of their relationship.

It might be splitting hairs, but I think she's more the symptom of Bill losing it, not the cause. I also think she's profited tremendously from his downfall. For that reason and a few others I think he'd be smart to cut ties with her.

Bill's enough of a ho these days to do it, but Brady's too smart to want him.

Personally I don't think Bill could even get that Merrimack Jr High gig if this UNC thing continues down the path it now appears to be on.

Bill doesn’t need a soft landing media gig right now, he needs to get completely out of the spotlight. Go away for a year or 2 and start to rebuild some of the fractured relationships. At some point he needs to be celebrated in New England but holding grudges and airing grievances will do him no good at all. The next decade of his life should be like Shula in his last decade or so. Celebrate your accomplishments with the people you did it with - players, staff, and even owners and their sons.
