UNC schedule is a cake walk next season basically Clemson is our toughest matchup.

 

 

See you suckas in the playoffs year 1 of the BB era.

I mean its threading the needle for sure.  You are A) hoping BB can figure everything out in short order and elevate the program and then more importantly B)you are hoping Steve B is ready to take over in short order. 

Oh, I'm fully aware of the potential ways this flops hard

Arch Manning playing for BB in the weak ACC?

 

I wouldn't put it past him. BB already was on Manning cast. Let the speculation begin!

Well, I think if we had the hypothetical discussion on Bill coming to college a month ago….we would be basically Brady and Gronk laughing at it together.  

I mean there is a path for it to work.  A path for Dabo to win his 3rd natty I guess too.   I don’t think they are high % plays. 

I think we will know fairly quick if BB’s brand means that much in college football.  Have to see who leaves and jumps in the portal for him.  
 

 

Sounds like all of our portal guys are pulling their names out until they can talk to the new staff. I have a friend in Greensboro who has a lot of local sports connections and used to work for ESPN. There's a certain 5* 2026 QB committed to an SEC team who is evidently ready to flip on a dime to Carolina when Carolina really wasn't even in the running for him during his recruitment.

We'll see if Bellicheck can pull off what Cignetti did at IU.

If Cignetti was younger he would have some absolute powerhouse programs after him.

Introductory presser coming up at the top of the hour.

There's an NFL football game on tonight with significant playoff implications and UNC football is going to be the biggest sports story of the day. That is fuging WILD.

If you’re a top defensive recruit you are sending your tape to UNC (Mike Lombardi lmao) via courier. 

belichick was notorious for making rookie qbs look like morons. Imagine what he’s going to do to some 20 year old portal transfer at NC State. 

if you don’t want to watch unc win the ACC with the nations best defense and an offense running plays from the 19th century I don’t know what to tell you.

Our defense has been underperforming for a decade. The overall talent level is significantly higher than the results on the field. I'm not saying they're a top tier defensive roster, that's just not accurate. But they're also nowhere near being bottom of the barrel and that's what they've been in the field.

Shoutout michael making a transfer portal pitch for unc on pat mcafee show lol this really is gonna go one of two ways.

belichicks closest college comparison is Saban for obvious reasons  

I want you to lie back, get comfy, put on some Otis Redding, and look at Sabans first full recruiting class (2007 was kinda hurried and rushed)

It'll get VERY interesting if Max Johnson enters the portal. Mack Brown's promises have left the building.
