You mean a legal information request?

If you are implying that the university was obligated to respond to him within a certain timeframe, I’d be curious what you are basing that on other than Torre whining and throwing FOIA around to make himself look important. That’s not even getting into whether the information, or lack thereof, even falls under FOIA. If you mean it was legal for him to make a request, sure why wouldn’t it be.

Only a few more days for these media hacks’ slander to come true. I wonder why they haven’t brought this back up. Could it be they were just butthurt over Belichick ending interviews and not treating them like god’s gift to humanity? Don’t let these self righteous little divas get away with constantly throwing bullshit around and relying on everybody to just forget.

I didn't want UNC to hire Belichick simply because it's the exact same thing we just had to get rid of - an old, retired coach getting off the couch to hopefully act as a bridge to the next generation of UNC football. In the perfect world, Mack would've retired as Drake Maye was going into his final season giving UNC a great opportunity to go out and land a good coach. But the dinosaur wanted to hang on as dinosaurs tend to do.

I had a lot of doubts about Belichick as a college coach but the recruiting so far is alleviating most of those. I just had a hard time wrapping my mind around how a guy was going to go from being in a position to tell All Pros that it's his way or the highway to kissing HS kids' asses. That seems like a hard switch to flip. But it seems like they've essentially built a recruiting structure where others are handling the bulk of the process and Bill just shows up wearing six SB rings and says "Are we gonna do this or not?"

Basically still in the same "we'll see mindset" but it's going better than I expected so far. The big question to me though is still "what's next?" Is it Bill's kid? That's probably the Belichick plan. Is it UNC's plan? No clue. Gonna be a wild ride one way or the other. LOL

      The bottom line is we saw long stretches this season where T-Mac wasn't even targeted.  He had games where he went an entire half without seeing a pass thrown his way, and it lead to a bunch of games with 5 or less targets.  If he's healthy and we're not up a stupid amount and only running the ball, I can't see him having more than a game or two next year with 5 or less targets. We were also only 22nd this year in pass attempts, and that was with a rookie #1 and no legitimate 2nd option for half the season.  And even then, we were only 46 pass attempts above 31st place. If we go into next season with T-Mac improved in his 2nd season and a healthy Coker for 17 games, there is absolutely no reason for us to not throw it more.  That right away increases both of their target totals without sacrificing any targets from each other or other players, add in them taking targets from the TEs and RBs on top of that, and your argument just doesn't hold water anymore. You can't look at targets/yards in a vacuum and think next year Coker just takes some from T-Mac.  You have to look at the team as a whole and our situations this year and then project what will happen next year. If he's healthy for 17 games, I'd bet my life savings that T-Mac sees increases across the board, targets/catches/yards/TDs.   Just as Coker will also see career highs in all categories, it's not one vs the other, it's shifting offensive strategy given our personnel, which next year will be much better for our passing game (QB issues aside).

      C'mon now.... First, you can't switch up your argument once someone points out a major flaw in your point. You're saying we shouldn't expect a big increase in targets/yards for T-Mac, but then shift to talking about averages with Chase when I point out the significant leap he took there once you factor in his missing games.  He saw an increase in targets in 5 less games, averages aside, he saw a significant increase in targets in his 2nd season, what he then did with those targets is actually irrelevant in this discussion. Puka seeing no increase is pointless, as he saw such an absurd amount of targets for a rookie, it's near impossible to see an increase. But the real issue in this post is that you think I'm proving your point by showing how Waddle had to share targets with Hill. Tyreek Hill was a 1st team All Pro who was 2nd in the NFL in yards that season. If you think Jaylen Waddle sharing targets with a 1st team All Pro and a future HOFer is even remotely in the same category as T-Mac needing to share targets with Coker... then you are certifiably insane, lol. If anything, you could make the argument that Coker is to Waddle as T-Mac is to Hill in that discussion (which would then lead to a serious increase in targets/yards for T-Mac).  But even that is insane, as neither T-Mac or Coker will be as good as Hill and Waddle respectively that season.  I love both of their potential, but c'mon now, T-Mac isn't getting 119 catches for 1,700 yards and Coker isn't getting 117 for 1,350 next season.
