Oh, he's gonna get his money. He's an elite college QB talent. Very well may prove to be an elite NFL QB prospect. Someone is gonna pony up and it won't be surprising if a straight up bidding war breaks out. This might be the circus that's needed to make them do something rein this stuff in because it's just going to keep getting dumber.

The first part may be true, but let's face it.  I watched plenty of Tennessee's games, and he has a long way to go.

He does but he has gobs of talent. Go a of talent usually gets you drafted high. Somebody is gonna jump on that Shemar Stewart grenade this year.

He's on the DJ U path right now.  Not Shemar Stewart.

He's transferred once and he's 20 years old. DJU transferred what felt like a dozen times and felt like he was collecting Social Security checks while playing college ball.

I think this Belichick to UNC move is in the end....going to provide some entertainment people didn't really see coming.  For as boring as Bill was in NE....I think old discarded to college football Bill, with the new 20 year old chief of staff of all things Bill girlfriend, is going to get weirder.

Who didn't see entertainment coming? It's either going to be a raving success or an absolute dumpster fire of a disaster. There's was never any gray area.

I don't recall anyone seeing this coming.  I mean, two seperate things for me.  I thought BB just might not work in college football because he is old grumpy man and college is about appealing to young kids.   So yeah, that could of gone great or horrible.  Coin flip.  This isn't that convo for me. 

what we are witnessing right now play out.....this was never part of the disaster possibility/path discussed lol.  Really weird stuff.  Or maybe I missed the part where UNC hires a 20 year old "girlfriend" that apparently runs the Bill operation and before the season even starts is taking over more than just Bill but influence of the entire UNC operation.  That was her getting that official statement made today.  It was her sabotaging the Hard Knocks UNC show because she somehow wasn't the star. 

Seems like elder abuse lol.  Only largely kidding.  You even got Charles Barkley saying he normally doesn't talk about personal lives of his friends but he might have to check in on Bill because this ain't normal stuff lol. 

Anyway, it's entertaining.  Everything is a cartoon it seems these days.

There's nothing normal about a 73 year old dating a 24 year old and a wildly successful NFL coach going to the college level in his twilight years is unprecedented. Yeah, raving success or absolute clown show. We'll see how it plays out on the field but this is why I was always very apprehensive about going after Belichick. The odds of it going the clown show route seem to be increasing by the day.

Maybe he is trying to get fired and they are forced on short notice to let his son run it.  Bill choosing the accelerated path.   I mean, I don’t believe that.  Seems the old successful man is just an idiot man at heart…..looking like a chump for a girl.  Just didn’t see this version of the disaster path playing out

If Bill wins double digit games, or hell even looks like he moderately has a clue making in game decisions, it will still be better than watching Mack Brown go 6-6 while he "awww shucks", kisses babies and shakes hands.

I hate seeing this.

I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them.

It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
