Possible and honestly, what better pitch to four and five star recruits (and maybe even more so to portal kids) whose ultimate goal is to play on Sundays? A lot of those kids just see the college game as a necessary pit stop on their way to the actual destination.

True, but what I got out of the clip of the interview was Bill wanted to be seen like a Bama, but not just sending blue chip guys to the League, but damn near finished products.

How that mentality is going to go over with Gen Z kids will remain to be seen. I can't see Bill patting guys on the back and hugging it out after their feelings have been hurt.  I have sneaking suspicion he's going to Bobby Knight himself sooner rather than later.

13-11 with no wins over ranked teams would be a step back from Mack is what I'm saying.

Wait until y'all don't have Ward next year. Hope your defense isn't still UNC level or you'll be .500

 

His record pre and post Brady is startling. I don't think he's a good hire, especially at 72.

Belichick and Deion couldn't be more opposite. One is no nonsense life is ball, the other is all flash and bravado. I don't know if this is going to work out or not but if we can get the players I have no concerns about the coaching.

They’re are definitely different, personality wise. But they both bring star power to the recruitment table. But BB has the advantage in the coaching area. Albeit not with teens.

I just honestly have no clue how Belichick will translate to recruiting. I can see that situation playing out either way. Everything about this hire is boom or bust IMO. We're about to become a powerhouse or a clown show. Can't really see much room for gray area in between. This is either really gonna work or really spectacularly flop.

I think the argument exists that it’s essentially Steve Belichick that is the real hire and his dad is gong to use his brand/face to help get the ball rolling and do basic install of what the program should be.   Then moving out of his way.  

and all the pipeline to the NFL balderdash is just that.  There already are tons of pipelines to the NFL and you don’t have to deal with BB’s nonsense to get there.

You don't see any path for this to work out? You seem a bit shook. LOL

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.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
