• 1:39
  Speaker 1: This hour is from college football from rainy South, Florida,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: and there it was the Island game in college football
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: on Sunday Sunday Night, made for TV extravaganza. You have
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: the national following good versus Evil. Well, back in the
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: old days it was Catholics versus convicts, but they don't
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: say that anymore. Well some people do. But there you
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: had the old school match. I don't know if you're
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: watching this or not. I had it on the background.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I was not fully engaged in they put I had
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: it on the background. I was observing consuming the product.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: So if you didn't see this. It came down to
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: a dramatic finish as the fighting Irish should rally back
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: to tie the game, and then the Hurricanes and their
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: idiot kicker, somebody named Carter Davis, which sounds like he's
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: on the PGA tour somewhere. But Carter Davis hit a
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: forty seven yard field goal with a little over a
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: minute to go on the clock, the go ahead score,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: and did Notre Dame come back and win the game?
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Now they did not Carson Beck, the old Georgia quarterback,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Carson Beck two hundred and five yards, a couple of
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: touchdowns in his Miami debut, and the Hurricanes who came in.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Is there anything more useless than a preseason ranking in
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: college football? He do that for team. But anyway, Carson
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Beck two hundred five yards. Miami came into the year
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: ranked tenth, and so they knock off Notre Dame that
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: was ranked six twenty seven to twenty four of the
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: final in favor of the fellas from South Florida. So
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: the better story, though, is in the losing locker room.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: We maintain that position. The better story is in the
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: losing locker room. So let us discuss the question did
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: coach Marcus Freemans Notre Dame squad get out coached, out played,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: or out prepared, because for much of this game they
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: were doing next enough. Now they did come back and
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: tie the game. Light But I've got daily double zombies
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: and maraj and we will combine all of these things
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: together and we are going to make cotton candy, which
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: is kind of what that Notre Dame defense was like.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: For stretches in this game, they were like cotton candy.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: So a the biggest gripe. And I have no skin
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: in the game on this, but my biggest if you're
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: looking objectively about Notre Dame, is that they came out
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: they were not ready for the beginning of the game
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: here and there's no exhibition games in college football. This
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: is how it goes. We've seen this a lot, but
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: your big bad Notre Dame, and it was like the
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: sleepy fighting Irish. There were the sleepy Irish there. Beginning
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: of the game. Took them about, by my malor estimate,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: about seventy five percent of the game roughly to figure
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: things out. And so generally speaking, they don't tell you
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: to do that. It doesn't vote well for winning and
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: a Notre Dame was down by not one but two
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: touchdowns twenty one to seven going to the fourth quarter,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: at seven points over the first three quarters of the game,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: and so it was an uphill battle. They have a
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: new quarterback now in South Bend, the great CJ. Carr
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: who CJ. Carr, who was spotty as some people go,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: he was great. It's some plays late. Overall, the numbers
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: do not look all that bad if you're a casual
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: observer of college football. He finished with two hundred and
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: twenty something yards passing, and he had nineteen completions and
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: all that a couple of touchdown. Did have an interception
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: which bounced all over the place, and a rushing score
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: with three twenty one to go in the game. That
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: was what tied the game up. However, he was missing
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: and when I was watching and I had it on
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: the background, he was missing what looked to be open receivers.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: I saw multiple miss throws there that could have should
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: have would have been either big plays or scoring plays
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: or whatnot. So there was that, and you also have
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: the fact that he's got the build up, which they
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: mentioned to Timer to the grandson of an old Michigan coach,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Lloyd Carr. Although you could say, you know, you can
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: go down the list of anybody else name car David Carr,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: big big moment, not getting it done, that kind of thing. Anyway,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: the new Notre Dame quarterback, Okay, not not horrific, not terrible,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: anything like that. But now the Golden Omers, so you'll
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: get the schedule, they're behind the eight balls. Well that's
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: one game. There's now a bunch of teams getting the playoffs,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: so it's not the end of the world and all that,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: but you are behind the eight ball if your Notre
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Dame at this particular point. You start out zero to
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: one and then suddenly everything snowballs and everything comes a referendum.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: You start losing. You lose another game that you're like, well,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: that's the game we should have won. We lost that
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: when we lost the first game. Then start stacking up
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: and up next. The Irish have a little bit of
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: a break, and then they will play Texas A and
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: M and Purdue. I'm sick and tired of losing to Purdue.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: They'll play those games in south Man and then they
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: go on the road after that and play a second
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: division SEC team in Arkansas after that. All right, So
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: the other part about this, when you break the game down,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: what happened to the fighting Irish defense and the offensive line.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: When I was looking at the different matchups in college
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: football and I was observing the breathless blow by blow
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: reporting on what the teams are going to be like
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: this year, there was a lot of chatter about how
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: great the offensive line was going to be for Notre
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Dame and how their defense was gonna be wonderful. I
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: was not impressed. I was not impressed. Well, you know,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: to dame out a change to win the game. Well,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: you being such a hater, All right, let me explain.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: So the defense supposed to be elite. I didn't see elite.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: Did you see elite? Maybe maybe I missed it. Maybe
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: I had to come out on the background, So maybe
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: I missed the elite defense because I didn't see that.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I was told this is a nasty defense. I didn't
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: really see that. And this is going to be the
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: thing that pushes them because they have a first time
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: starting quarterback CJ Carr, so this defense was going to
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: lead them there and all that. And now Carson Beck,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: who some people think is going to be wonderful playing
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: the NFL, and a Carson Beck I believe he tried
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: to go to the NFL and the NFL said, you're
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: not really really ready. I remember reading about that, hearing
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: about that. Anyway, Beck took the NIL bag. He goes
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: down to Miami and he had surgery on his elbow
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: between the end of last season and this season. He
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: walks into hard Rock stadium and by college football standards,
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: he carved up what was supposed to be a great
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Miami defense for again about three quarters of the game,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: like it was a Thanksgiving turkey, and so he had
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: that and then the numbers were there and he got
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: the big check and all that good for him. Congratulations.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: The offensive line, though, which is supposed to be the
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: meat and potatoes. Again, this is based on the scouting
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: report on the fighting irish here the offensive line which
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Freeman's talked up. The head coach there, you look at him,
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: and they were like manhandled at times by the University
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: of Miami defense in the trench warfare, which did not
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: go for much of this game in favor of Notre Dame.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: And for now you put Notre Dame. I have them
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: down on my scorecard as overhyped, over ranked, did not
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: look like the six team in the country for the
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: first three quarters of that game. And the fact that
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: they lost the game, you say, you say under delivering
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: in that first game, and he said, well, it's not fair.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: It's only one game. Oh okay, this is all we
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: have to judge them on at this particular point is
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: one game. And they've got the biggest brand in all
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: of college football. You know it, I know it, every man,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: woman and child knows it. Notre Dame and that's it, right.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: They are bigger than college football. They represent an entire religion.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: And they went out there and played like zombies. They
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: played like zombies for a good stretch of that night
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: in prime time, in prime time. And Marcus Freeman, he's
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: got all you know, he's been to the Tony Robbins seminar.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: He's got all the buzzwords, all the terms, you got
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: everything on culture, grit, we've got all that, Notre Dame football, physicality,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: all that. Yeah, okay, and the lights went on there,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: little rainy condition is not the greatest, but that's what
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: you expect South Florida this time of the year. And
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: they bent and eventually broke because they lost the game,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: and now can play the blame game, which is always
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: a fun game to play the blame game. Who do
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: you blame? Who you're gonna blame? All right, So you're
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: supposed to be the sixth ranked team according to the
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: preseason rankings, and these early season made for TV games
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: measuring early measuring stick, right, early measuring stick. You don't
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: get any kind of mulligan in college football, and where
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: was that that close out punch? They did come back, right,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: they can't a magic fourth quarter magic, But you don't
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: get credit for fourth quarter magic when you lose the game.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: When you lose the game, you don't get credit for
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: coming back and tying the game because you lost it
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: on a field goal late, So you don't get credit
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: for that. That's generally how that works. Close, But no
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: victory cigar for the fighting average. Now on the other side,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: the last word here are you buying? The Miami Hurricanes
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: are back Miami football? If you're old, you remember when
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Miami dominated college football million years ago, back in the
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Stone Age? And then are they back? Are they an
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: apex predator?
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: In college football? The Hurricanes have returned, So the U
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: is back. No, I'm not there yet either. I'm not listen.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: There were some good things there for the Hurricanes, and
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: you look at the big picture. They've been teasing you
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: for several years there in Miami. Mario Christiball, the coach
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: who was supposed to fix everything, hasn't fixed everything yet.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: Does this count as a signature win for you? Beat
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame? And I saw the stat that Notre Dame
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: hasn't beaten Miami in Miami since nineteen seventy seven. Of course,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: they don't play all the time. They don't play every year.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: They did for a stretch, but they don't play every year.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: So anyway, the coaching staff there, Mario cristaball Miami, they're
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: all excited they won the game. But I would hold
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: off on the parade down Biscayne Boulevard there yet, so
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: we can crank up the old. Pump on the brakes.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: You can pump the brakes right there, pump the brakes
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: on this. And again he said, well, it's unfair. You're
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: saying you're ripping Notre Dame and I amn't taking the
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: shots to Notre Dame. Uh, because they had higher expectations
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: than Miami, even though Miami was a top ten team.
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: He just looked at this and he's like, is this
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say I'm in on this again. The
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: quarterback look good. I thought that Carson beck Beck for
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: stretches looked good. He was relatively solid, didn't throw up
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: in his cleats, which is always a step in the
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: right through the bar is very low. You did not
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: puke in your cleats and not the second coming of
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Vinny Testa Verdi or Dick and Dayton's favorite quarterback Bernie Kozar,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: not the reincarnation of either one of those guys. And
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: then the kids had that player last year who was
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: the number one overall pick the entire draft and he's
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: now playing toiling with the Tennessee Titans. It didn't really
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: matter that they by NFL standards, they had a top
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: quarterback last year and put up some nice numbers in
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Miami didn't at the end was not standing there smiling
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: and flexing and all that stuff. So the other part
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: of this being a little gun shy with the Miami
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Hurricanes is that they've I feel like they've done this
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: kind of thing. They don't do it every year, but
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: the last like ten years or so, there have been
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: some teases. There's been some molmons here where they've come
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: out of the gates and they've gotten a nice win
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: and then they have the flashy opener, the Razmataz. It
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: was all excited, all right, there you go, Miami get
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: ald national attention going there, and then by week number
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: six they're losing to They play Louisville in weeks they
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: lose to Louisville. There'll be seven people watching that game
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: and they'll lose, right, And you have the defense that was,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: I guess supposed to be Miami defense. You know, we
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: didn't know what to expect. We thought they'd be okay,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: and they were good for a good stretch of the game.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: But late in the game, Notre Dame was able to
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: get back and tie the game. And there was some
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: mistakes for the defense there late in the game and
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: gave up seventeen points in the fourth quarter. And so
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: that's that's your statement. Win early for the Miami Hurricanes.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: It's also a warning sign. It's a bit of a
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: warning sign in there that you're supposed to close the
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: game out and not have to depend on your idiot
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: kicker there to win the game late and they were clinging.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: They were holding on like a cart a cat hanging
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: on to a screen door, just trying to hold on,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: and I was like.

• 16:59
  Speaker 1: So our lead, this hour, the Hour of Belichick, The
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Hour of Belichick has upon us, Oh my god, not
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: worth about more than sixty seconds after what we witnessed.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: But that's where we're gonna start, and we'll see where
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: we go. But the Hour of Belichick. Our lead is
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: from North Carolina, where Bill Belichick made his much anticipated,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: much talked about coaching debut at the college level. All
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: those years in the NFL. Here's Bill Belichick on a
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: random Labor day in twenty twenty five. Out there all
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: the buzz. North Carolina sold out all of their tickets,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: all the season tickets, sold them out the power of hyperbolee.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: So they sold them all out. They raised the prices
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: of the tickets and single game seats for the season.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Everything was up up and they sold them all. They
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: all had their Carolina blue on and ready to celebrate.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: And don't if you watch the game or not, it
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: got a lot of attention. Perhaps you missed it. We
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: watched so you would not have to. We're happy to
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: report that you didn't miss anything. You did not miss
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: any of you did not watch. You did not miss
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: a damn thing. Let me explain Holy smokers. Bill Belichick.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: His first run as a college coach at North Carolina
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: started fast. Opening drive, sliced up TCU. They get a touchdown,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: only to end up in an epic blowout. After scoring
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: on the first drive, North Carolina's football team, the Tar Hills,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: watched the horn Frogs scored forty one answered unanswered points
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: in one stretch. Forty one unanswered points in one stretch,
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: forty eight to fourteen. It could have been worse than that.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: It was a laugher. North Carolina on defense watching as
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: TCU was driving the ball down the field with a
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: few seconds to go in the game, and then they
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: started taking knees there. Otherwise it would have been double nickels.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: But forty eight to fourteen the final by the TCU
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: had scored multiple defensive touchdowns, They had a special team's
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: touchdown in this game, and North Carolina Tarhill fans acting
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: like they were at Dodgers Stadium as they left early.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: They left in the third quarter, some leaving even before that.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: That stadium was mostly empty by the time we got
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: to the fourth quarter. How bad was it? It was
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: so bad Kirk Kerbstreet allowed his dog to broadcast the game.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Herbstreet allowed his dog to broadcast the game because the
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: game was for the Dogs. It was covered in fleas
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: extended Garbige's time. But let us discuss the question with
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: that as the backdrop. What are your takeaways from Bill
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Belichick's maiden voyage his college football debut at North Carolina.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: So I've got biblical, a bugs, life, and m behold,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together, and
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: we are going to make some delicious deep fried cheese curds,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: is what we're gonna make, because that would have been
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: better just eating cheese curds would have been better than
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: watching this holy crap. At least they got paid for it,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: plausibly pay me to watch this crap, so I can
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: come in here and tell you about the crap that
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: I watched. So hey, let's start with this North Carolina.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: North Carolina football pulled off what I call and they
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: call this in Hollywood too, they fake out opening. Now,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: back in the day, there used to be these things
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: called movies. People would actually pay money to go to
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: a movie theater, believe it or not, back in the
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Stone Age, and they'd buy like popcorn and snacks, and
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: they'd go watch the movies, right, ah, man, it was
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: a big thing back back in the old days. But
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: humanity's evolved since then nobody goes to the movies anymore.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: But imagine if you will go into the movies back
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: in the old Stone Age when people used back in
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: the day, they had payphones and horse and buggy. So
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: you go down to the movie theater and there's a
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: lot of hype for the movie, and the first five
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: minutes you're hooked, right, you are in. You're like, yes,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: it lived up to the hype, and your big card chase,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: huge explode. Within the first five minutes. You're like, this
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: is gonna be a good one.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: You're sitting there thinking, oh baby, buckle up, man, finally
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: Hollywood made a good movie. Right, this is gonna be awesome, awesome,
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: And then for the rest of the movie, you know,
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: another hour and twenty five minutes or more, there's two
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: people just mumbling in some coffee shop about their feelings
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: for the next hour and twenty five minutes, just like,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: come on, I want a car crash. Well we got
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: a car crash, but it was supposed to be excitement,
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: huge explosions and all that stuff. Total bait and switch,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: total bait and switch for North Carolina. And that's what
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Bill Belichick in North Carolina pulled off that openly drive,
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: seven plays, eighty three yards, touchdown, tar Heels, ow Man
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: and the tar Heels. They were fast and furious right there.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: Slicing up the opening credits, there was like Vin Diesel.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: The whole package, however, turned out to be a mirage.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: It was just an hallucination. A desert oasis is what
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: it turned out to be. The real movie for North Carolina.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: That was a low budget, I mean real low budget
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: horror flick. And Bill Belichick, he starred as the clueless
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: babysitter that had no idea as the horn Frogs appropriate
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: a guy who's Belichick very horny, would lose to a
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: team called the horn Frogs. Now the first drive, the
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: first drive, that was the trailer. That was the trailer
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: to the movie. The real product. What followed was not
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: so much football. It was biblical in nature. It's a
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: biblical flood, is what happened. Again, we mentioned forty one
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: point avalanche, a forty one point avalanche before the tar
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: Hills would score again, and you cut to Belichick and
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: staring blankly with his cutoff sleeves there on the hoodie.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: And that's the look there. As TCU's another touchdown, and
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: another and another and another and another and another touchdown.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: We're talking about an emasculation situation to the highest order,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: fifth ring of hell Dante's Inferno type stuff. For North Carolina.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: TCU rolled into town. They were the uninvited house guests.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: They were the interlopers. They raided the fridge, they ripped
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: the flat screen TV off the wall, and they set
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: the place on fire with arson, is what they did.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: So Texas Christian turned Bill Belichick and his debut in
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: collegiate football into a straight to DVD production, and they
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: don't even really make dvs anymore. All right now, Page two,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: So how would you describe the overall coaching job by
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Bill Belichick and his staff in the Belichick debut at
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: North Carolina. He might know that he has his nepo
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: baby as the defensive coordinator for the Tarios. The Brownie
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: James of defensive coordinators their Belichick's son. So there's really
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: no sugarcoating this. I have two words to describe, two
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: words to describe Bill Belichick and the job that his
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: coaching staff did for North Carolina coaching malpractice. Those are
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: the two words. That was malfeasance is what that was.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: If you want a third word, pure and uncut. Pure
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: and uncut. Forget the raw talent and all that. Oh
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: my god, forget about all that. It's not about that.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: It's about the essential components of football, the building blocks.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: So you know Bellichick, you said, well, in the NFL
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: all those years, he had teams that were not that talented,
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: but he always had Tom Brady for the Patriot run
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: until the last couple of years. And so you look
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: at that and said, well, that's the great equalizer and
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: all that. And in Cleveland he did actually have some
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: teams that overachieved when he was coaching the Cleveland Rounds
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: way back thirty something years ago, back back in the day.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: But the basics for North Carolina, which is it doesn't
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: matter how much talent you have, it's simple blocking and tackling.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: If you block and tackle the fundamentals, the bedrock of football,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: you don't get smashed the way North Carolina got smashed.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: And the line, which I believe in is you're either
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: coaching it. You're either coaching it or you're allowing it.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: To happen if you're the Belichick coaching staff, and either way,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: it's on you. It's on Bill Belichick here and Belichick's
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: boys looked like lambs being led to the slaughter after
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: that opening drive there, and it was like watching as
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: the team was thirsty. North Carolina was thirsty. So they
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: got in front of the fire hydrant and the fire
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: hydrant was spraying at full blast and North Carolina's football
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: players were trying to get a drink, but they had
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: they were trying to sip. They had a little one
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: of those little bendy straws and they were trying to
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: drink from the bendy straw. You can't. You cannot drink
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: out of a fire hydrant with a bendy straw. Just
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: the math on that does not does not work. Impossible.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: But this was it was a bugs life. It was
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: a bugs life for the coaching staff in North Carolina because,
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: as we know, sometimes you're the windshield and sometimes you're
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: the bug. Splat. Yeah, they were splattered. They were splattered.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: And now it is a full on BELLICHICKI and dog pile,
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: dog pile, dogpile, dogpile. It is right, he's being mocked teased, humiliated,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: all of that. The hoodie who once tortured, absolutely tortured
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: rookie quarterbacks, and when he had extra time to prepare,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: you never wanted to bet against ever ever, Bill Belichick,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: and he punked out all of these quarterbacks and all
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: these coaches for a generation. And now he is being
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: emotionally waterboarded on national TV, on social media, the matrix,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: all that stuff they're just unloading on Bill Belichick. I
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: don't feel bad for Belichick per se. I don't know
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: that it's completely justified for Bill Belichick because when I
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: listened to Tom Brady talk, I hear a lot of
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: the crap that Belichick' said, Like Belichick influenced what Tom
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: Brady became. Now, you could argue that Brady did it better. Fine,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: I think that's been proven since they went their separate ways.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: But it's not like Tom Brady is not using BELICHICKI
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: in lines when he discusses his outlook on football. Those
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: are things he learned from Bill Belichick, and he's just
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: repeating the dogma of Bill Belichick. So I think that's
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: important to note here for all the people's see, it
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: was all Tom Brady. Okay, okay, fine, but he's using
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: a lot of the material he learned from Bill Belichick.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: And so the hoodie gets tortured there and waterboarded and
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: all that stuff. And the lesson is sometimes you're the
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: maestro and sometimes you're the kazoo player. And in this scene,
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: in this scene of the show, Bill Belichick is stuck
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: playing the kazoo while TC how do you do? The
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: march band blasts him off the field. Get out of here, Belichick.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Here a bum. The guy's a bomm. Now it's not
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: all bad. So I determined I had an epiphany. As
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: I was driving in making the long drive in from
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: the north Woods here to the mothership, I had an epiphany.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: And the epiphany was that Bill Belichick will be getting
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: a call from Madison Avenue first thing in the morning
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: here as the people on Madison Ave say hey, Bill, Well,
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: I guess they'll call this little floozy girlfriend there and
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: she's like the business person. So if you'll call, they'll
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: call him her and say, hey, we want Bill to
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: do a commercial. So what's the commercial for Wells? It's
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: an airline? What airline is it? Delta is No, it's
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: not America. It's not Delta. What airline is it, Well,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: it's Southwest. We want to do a new commercial. They
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: want to get away? Fair because that was a want
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: to get away situation and most North Carolina fans got away.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: They got out of there. I'm not standing at the
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: end of his crap, No way, all right, last word,
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: we have some post game Bill Belichick. Belichick post games
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: sound always good to play. Bill Belichick post game sound. Uh,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: let's get a little taste then we'll react. Here's Belichick
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: commenting about this scene, the aura, the vibrations there in
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Chappa Hill. Take a listen.
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: Oh well, it was a great uh, you know, great
• 29:11
  Speaker 5: atmosphere here for the game tonight. You know, fans were
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: tremendous injury energy walk and you know we played competitively,
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: but then just couldn't sustain it. Obviously, we have a
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: lot of work to do. You know, we did do
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: a better job all the way around, coaching, playing all
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: three phases of the game. Just wasn't up to what
• 29:32
  Speaker 5: it needs to be. And I know we're a lot
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: better than that. So we'll need to, you know, need
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: to work on those things and show it on Saturday
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: and quick turnaround. But you know, get TCU credit that
• 29:43
  Speaker 5: came in did a good job, and they were clearly
• 29:46
  Speaker 5: the better team tonight. You know, they deserved to win
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: and they did it decisively.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: All right. So those just some opening comments by Bill
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: Belichick there. I liked that how he had said, hey,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: we just couldn't keep it up, that there was one drive,
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: North Carolla, I look good like one drive, one drive,
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: and that's it, all right. So what do you make
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: of Bill Belichick and the tone the postgame comments of
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Bill Belichick? To me, the quote that stood out is,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: I know we're a lot better than that. To me,
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: that's the money quote. So I felt like all of
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: this was watered down. I watched it. It was about
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: thirteen minutes or so. I saw the news. Comings was
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: it was watered down. It was, And behold, numb little bug,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: a numb little bug by Bill Belichick. Just numb, just
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: felt numb, like he's a little tired of everything. Belichick.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: You know, he knew he had to do it. He's
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: done this a million times after losses, and he's like
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: he's kind of hanging by a thread there, Belichick, and
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: you got to survive it. And he did. And and
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: some of that sounded similarly to some of the undertones
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: he had when he was coaching the Patriots back in
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: the day. Some of the commentary there not quite as sharp.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: I thought, the I know we're a lot better than that.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: That's a bit of a stepping stone, a bit of
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: a stepping stone. I don't recall him saying that very
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: often coaching the Patriots. Course he didn't have to. They
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: won most of the games. They certainly won most of
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: the big games with the Patriots, So I don't recall
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: him saying that bright side bill by Bella check standards,
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: that's bright side bill. And just the statistical domination. The
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Eyeball test said this was ridiculous. The numbers back it up.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: North Carolina had ten first downs, most of those in
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: garbage time. They went a couple hours without completing a
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: forward pass, and TCU had twenty nine first downs. They
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: had nineteen more first downs TCU. Rushing yards. TCU had
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: two hundred and eight more rushing yards than North Carolina.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: Two hundred and eight more rushing yards. And but wait,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: there's more. Overall yardage. The TCU horned frogs got real horny.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: They had five hundred and forty two yards. The tar
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: Hills had two hundred and twenty two. My computer like
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: brain tells me that is a minus three hundred and
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: twenty for North Carolina plus three twenty for TCUs. So
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: it was bad. So the question also is will it
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: get any better? Is this going to be how it
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: goes all season for Bill Belichick? Is this going to
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: be a one and done situation? Will he run out
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: of coaching and that's it and see you later? And
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: that guy Mike Lombardi will go back and do bad
• 32:23
