Bill Belichick, the NFL legendary coach,
00:03
is now back in coaching, but not in the NFL,
00:07
at the University of North Carolina.
00:10
Never would have thought, Charles.
00:11
A surprising move.
00:12
They announced last night that they had hired him,
00:15
and it sounds like he counseled with some legends,
00:20
some other legends.
00:22
Right.
00:22
There are people who say
00:23
that Belichick is the GOAT of coaching.
00:25
Yeah.
00:27
Well, the GOAT on campus at UNC
00:30
is always gonna be, regardless of sport,
00:32
across all sports, it's Michael Jordan.
00:34
No question.
00:35
Yeah, so he apparently consulted with Michael Jordan
00:38
Right.
00:39
Wow.
00:40
Before taking the job.
00:40
Right.
00:41
At a news conference today, gave him,
00:42
you know, this is his thing.
00:44
The hoodie.
00:45
The sleeveless hoodie, right.
00:45
So, what really shocked everyone about this
00:48
is that Belichick is 72 years old.
00:51
Yeah.
00:52
And nobody thought he would wanna go back
00:53
and do the coaching.
00:54
That's a college thing.
00:55
Also, Charles, he's like 20-something or so games
00:58
away from the NFL's all-time win record as a coach.
01:02
You would think he might wanna go after that record.
01:05
No, but to me, I think that part of the reason
01:09
he took this job has to do with that young girlfriend
01:12
he has.
01:13
We told you about the fact that, yes,
01:15
72-year-old Bill, now dating 24-year-old
01:18
Yeah, Jordan Hudson.
01:19
24-year-old Jordan Hudson.
01:21
So, did she have some influence here?
01:24
I mean, she did.
01:25
Remember, she did post some things
01:27
before he took the job.
01:28
She alluded, yeah.
01:29
She certainly alluded to him taking the job.
01:32
And look, we've talked to people, Charles.
01:34
He very much, he talks to her,
01:36
he bounces things off of her,
01:38
and this is a serious relationship.
01:40
Well, it's definitely gonna be easy for her
01:42
to make friends at Chapel Hill,
01:44
but he's having his press conference right now,
01:46
and in it, he was asked, is he just going to Chapel Hill
01:49
just so he can have a stepping stone and go to the NFL?
01:52
To which he said, I'm not coming here to leave.
01:55
I beg to differ.
01:56
I think if you actually believe that Bill Belichick
01:59
is going to UNC and finishing his career there,
02:02
15 wins short of the all-time winning record in the NFL,
02:06
that you are just not seeing this clearly.
02:08
Reports have come out that there is no market
02:10
for him in the NFL.
02:11
There's no NFL team that wants him as their coach,
02:14
because when Belichick comes in,
02:16
he wants to take over everything,
02:18
and no one wants to give a guy in his 70s
02:20
the whole organization.
02:22
So what he's gonna do, he's going to UNC,
02:25
gonna strangle a couple wins together,
02:27
and then he's gonna make his move.
02:29
Congratulations, Jacob.
02:30
Coldest take of the week.
02:32
Howdy, y'all.
02:33
Tony from Texas, and this is clearly a money signing.
02:36
It's the greatest signing in college sports.
02:38
They're gonna make a fortune,
02:40
and the recruits that will come in
02:41
because Bill Belichick will be the coach
02:43
is gonna make the school a powerhouse.
02:46
It's probably gonna go down as the greatest signing
02:48
in college sports.
02:50
Wow. There you go.
02:50
Yeah.
02:51
I mean, his buddy Nick Saban was a good one too.
02:53
Yeah.
