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

[sb1]

Steve is doing himself no favors for a coaching career. He needs time away from his dad and the mess in UNC to build his own track record that might be attractive for other colleges or the NFL again.

 

[Thelonious]

The whole situation is painful to see and could go very badly indeed. I hope someone can help him out. If I had a family member this far off the beam, I'd organize an intervention, and I am not at all typically the sort of person who believes in meddling in people's lives.

I told you so is such an ugly phrase.... but uh.... well....

"You also have to deal with almost-still-children who have more power over their careers than their NFL counterparts. If you piss a player off, he'll quit on you after game 3, maintain that year of eligibility, hit the transfer portal, and you can't do a damn thing about it except wave goodbye." - me, 8/22/25

NOTE: I meant to say "after game 4" and not "after game 3"... that was either a typographical error or a brain fart on my part, for which I apologize

The interesting part of the video to me is where he says the networks bought into Fat Mike's hype and have put UNC into a lot of TV slots this season, so their piss-poor team is going to leave a lasting impression. Their arrogant "33rd NFL team" hype is gonna burn them big time.

The college game will adapt to me, not the other way around. Sheer arrogance.

In 1996 Sugar Ray Leonard had come out of retirement at 40 years old to fight a 35 year old Hector Camacho. The fight was stopped by TKO in round 5. Sugar looked old, tired and had been struggling with his vision due to a lingering issue with a detached retina. I watched that fight and was just sad, it actually upset me to see him take that beating. I considered Leonard one of the best fighters of his generation with career record of 36-3. He was getting worked over by a fighter that would never be close to as good as Leonard in their primes. Had that fight took place 8 years earlier Camacho does not get out of round 3. It was a fight that shouldn't have happened and its a blemish that shouldn't have been on his career. But yet the race horse still wants to run the race when the body cant. This is Belichick today, a great coach that the game has passed by along with the youth. All he is doing now is damage his legacy. If he truly had someone that cared about him they would say it was time to move on and that his accomplishments will forever place him in the conversations regarding the best coaches. Today I don't feel anything for him but pity.

Not sure how old you are, not my business. That generation and the one after that is not the one Bill coached in ‘85. Add in the NIL and the portal? I have my doubts. I think he lost the locker room with pro athletes, how’s he gonna handle teens and their parents ?

If Bill's team thinks this transition is going to be easy, kinda like the Joe Judge/Matty P Offensive Co-Coordinator fiasco, they're in for a rude awakening. Good luck cracking the AP Top 25 as a middle of the pack ACC team.

Great thread to see how people here thought he'd be much more successful.

just disappointing and sad to see as a pats fan.

Burying this game early to get the pain over with.

You don't get it.

Just because you see things one way, doesn't mean everyone else has to see things your way too.

The more you defend the undefendable the sillier you look.

Signbabybill said it out loud, if you don't agree with everything he says you are a hater. When it comes to being a complete ******* that's really hard to top.

The thread is titled:

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

Yet you don't understand the focus on the last few years...

Par for the course for you.

Last I knew 6 years isn't " a few ."

UNC football's first season with Bill Belichick as head coach shouldn't concern you

Bill Belichick started with losing records in both NFL head-coaching stops. UNC fans shouldn't panic about Belichick's 2-2 start in Chapel Hill.

The author is talking like Bill isn't 73 and really has several years to build the program. Also feelingz. Lol

 

[ScottishPatriots]

It's not that sad to see, people overcomplicate it just because you can coach older than play doesn't mean you have a shelf life we can all see that Aaron Rodgers is washed and nothing like he used to be why can't we just say that for a coach?

Bill was a great coach in his day but he's now washed and a shell of himself, the rich old man young piece is not that uncommon either.

In the moment it seems like it effects legacy cause we all lived the decline but the longer time goes by all of this washes away and every argument in sports eventually ends up with wins, losses and championships where he'll be fine.

10-20-30 years down the line Bill will be dead and people who barely seen or remember this will be arguing over GOAT coaches based on wikipedia stats, North Carolina and his girlfriend will be irrelevant.

You have people putting Bill Walsh and Vince Lombardi right now in goat coach convos and they never seen them coach a game, that's the treatment Bill will get purely off of his accomplishments regardless of the end.

"Success" is doing an awful lot of heavy lifting when the author says Belichick "found success" in Cleveland....

I don't know why it's so hard to admit that he was starting to see some success and got derailed by the franchise getting sold. You should be glad it went down like that because it led him to us. First in 96 and then again for multiple dynasties.

I don't know why it's so hard to admit that Bill Belichick is a failure as a head coach without Tom Brady.

And yet, for some reason, you can't admit that.

Amidst all the senseless back and forth happening in this thread, this is outright moronic.

Why do you HATE!!!!! Coach Belilichick so much?????

You said "he's a great coach!" No, he isn't a " great coach," he's the greatest coach ever, of all time, to infinity.

You said " he's damaging his legacy," which is total ********. His legacy is on hold until he starts winning again, which he will, and he will win every game ever, for all time, to infinity. And the records from the years from 2019-20.. will spontaneously ignite and burn Gillette Stadium down to the ground.

You said" he has no one," lies lies and more lies. He has Bunny, and she loves Coach Bill forever, for all time, to infinity. And Bunny would love him even if he were dirty, smelly, and penniless. Even if just to hear dirty, smelly, penniless Coach Bill regale her with stories of Ohio prisons, and all that went on in them.

And you said you " pity him." Yeah right! I'll bet right now Bill is on all fours all leashed up with a spiked collar and a bowl of kibble for if he's a good little doggy. You know you would kill everyone you love to be on that leash right now,

So don't ever hate on Coach Bill again. You must love him forever, for all time, to infinity!
