The Belichick Saga (6 Viewers)

His contract is probably air tight but I wonder if the university tries to unravel things through a breach of contract. He doesn’t even appear to be putting much effort in nowadays. No way 2010 Belichick flies off and vacations in Nantucket on the bye week if his team is falling apart.

This is one of the most extraordinary face plants in sports history. This is so embarrassing for him and you know it is only going to get worse.

Funny thing is I don’t think he’s embarrassed at all

I agree. I think he has lost any sense of self awareness and or just does not give a **** any more.

Every thing that is being leaked by the school is just a form of negotiation to get him to accept a smaller buy out I think. Whether he will or not is unknown. He may just be willing to take the whole program down with him for the full buy out.

I feel awful for the players who bought into this con job.

And as someone above said, it’s not just Bill. He has a whole cadre of people that are milking the school dry from Lombardi, to Lombardi’s kid, to Bill’s kids, to the gold digger……

UNC puts out two mini statements, one from Bill and one from the athletic director, trying to calm the storm

I really hope we get a documentary on this season at some point. I’m thinking we only know the half of it.

Hulu has been chronicling the team for a while in preparation for a documentary on the first season of Bill coaching the team.

Just yesterday it was announced that this project has been cancelled. I doubt any of the film will ever see the light of day but I bet there is some interesting stuff in there.

That seemed like it was going to be a Hard Knocks type of production. I’m thinking more a 30 for 30 piece.

HBO's Hard Knocks had contacted the UNC team and wanted to do their normal preseason chronically of a team. After it was announced that the Hard Knocks project was a go, it was later scrapped, reportedly because Bill soured on the idea that it would not include the full season.

It was at that point that Hulu approached the team for a full season chronicling with the gold digger supposedly getting an important role. It was this role that saw her get on the field before games that some people saw clips of.

I agree that we would not have seen a 30for30 type from either Hard Knocks or Hulu.

I nominate @Capella to finish the "What if I told you...."

He is one of the biggest egomaniacs in sports. You don't think getting curbstomped by mid-level ACC teams is embarrassing to him?

At this point, no. I think he’s just there for the money.

The football podcasts I listen to have been skewering Lombardi over the UNC fiasco; but the average person, even the average sports fan, has no clue who Mike Lombardi is. So mainstream media focuses exclusively on Belichick because he’s the big name everyone knows. Articles on Belichick’s downfall get clicks. Articles on Mike Lombardi’s downfall do not.

"As of 2025, Belichick has an estimated net worth of $70 million according to Celebrity Net Worth. The bulk of that wealth comes from the massive contracts he earned in his 40-plus years in the NFL."

"Agents speculated that Belichick could command a lucrative salary, with estimates ranging from $8-10 million for a studio analyst and potentially double that for a top game analyst job."

He could have easily gotten his UNC money in the studio. It's his ego. For sure.

Much of the negative attention he should get is directed at Jordon Hudson.

Bill is playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers. He don't give a care. He's getting paid and getting his comrades paid. He's got houses to keep up. Win or lose, he was getting a bag. Plus he's nailing a 24 year old smokin body, who he will go DiCaprio on soon, and move on the the next young smoke. Might even get some media contracts which he will go through the motions with as well.
