I'm assuming you're talking about me. I think some here, based off of posts, would prefer UNC to implode to get rid of BB. I might be completely wrong.

I don't understand how/why you switch back and forth on this team. You'll talk about how the staff has done a nice job turning it around and how the team is improving, then you make posts like this.

Yes, hopefully they play well today and win.

Yep, you are completely wrong. Just making up bullshit out of thin air to defend an idiotic position.

I could use a good laugh this morning though. Please, get in here and explain to the rest of us why we just got shut down wire to wire by another first year coach with significantly fewer resources. I’m all ears.

All I got is that they didn’t play well enough. Maybe you can break down some of the schemes and why they didn’t work?

I feel basically the same way I have felt for the past ten years, which can be most accurately described as indifferent. A lot of people here seem to think BB has destroyed UNC football but what I see so far is the same thing we’ve seen for going on 30 years. We will end up firing BB and the next coach will likely be even more of the same.

The mediocrity on the field is familiar. The difference is that we've now sold our soul completely, with no tangible positive return.

If we're going to be meddling on the field, I would rather have continued to do it with Mack.
 
refresh my memory what was the excuses given when billy the $10+ mil goat was prison raped by first yr coach scott frost at ucf who btw is currently 4-6 with his best win vs 4-7 wvu

I care less about her age than I do her inability to dress the part of a coaches spouse and her insertion of herself into the program. Both seem to have moderated greatly from their early season heights.

She's dressing like a million other 24 yr olds at college games, even on sidelines. It sounds like you have some vision of unofficial dress-code, and would have a similar problem even if the hubby coach was 24, and that's fine, as long as people don't refer her in derogatory terms just because you have a unofficial vision that isn't shared by the rest of the world. You might not have done this, but many people have said derogatory things and that reeks of sexism, misogyny which i associate with maga.

What changed regarding her dress since early? Vs Stanford she was wearing the snakeskin skirt and high boots.

I think “dress the part” was used metaphorically.

Someone should ask our head coach that question. I’m not the one getting paid a top 10 salary in the sport to answer it.

Come on now though, you can do better than that. I need a longer delusional moral victory diatribe.

I remember you posting about how you have been breaking down schemes, analyzing them, etc, in this very thread. I could never find those posts, so I have been eagerly awaiting to see your analysis going forward. I would think that it shouldn’t be too hard to find a few to critique from yesterday, given their performance. And, it would be nice to at least get a few breakdowns of schemes in the thread - I am sure others would appreciate it as well.

I am afraid that I can’t come up with anything delusional for you.

While i thought the Mack experiment had run its course 2 years before we fired him, I 100% agree with this. Mack and Sally are class acts who represent the good things about collegiate athletics. Id take middling with Mack every day and twice on Sunday over the current "suck with loud undeserved bravado and arrogance".
 
Mack sucked just as bad as BB, he just had Sam and Drake to slightly improve his results. If he had Gio at QB I’m not sure we would have won any games under Mack. And he has an ego too, guy thought he was doing a good job and was upset he wasn’t allowed to stay longer. None of that excuses the team’s performance under BB, he sucks too.

Don’t give a fuck about what you remember about my posting lol. I’m sorry you’re too stupid to skim through old threads to find what you’re looking for.

If you want actual analysis about yesterday’s game in the first place then you need to be lobotomized.

Yeah, not sure why it’s so hard to find your discussions on schemes in this thread. But, no worries, I’ll be on the lookout for your breakdowns of film in the future.

Stay tuned. I’m in the middle of drafting a detailed breakdown of why our senile $10M coach called a timeout at the end of the game when the outcome was already solidified to give Wake another shot at running the score up. It was very heady stuff. You’ll love reliving the moment.

If we could only bottle the passion and vitriol in this thread and inject it right into our players veins. we'd be undefeated.

Conservatives say that the libs have Trump derangement syndrome. I think I have Belichick derangement syndrome.

The level of delusion that it takes to defend either person at this point is equally staggering.

I'm more curious why he didn't use all of his timeouts at the end of the first half.
 
I’ll take a stab at the schematic discussion. I think that our offensive philosophy makes the one that Butch Davis and John Shoop had 15 years ago look modern. At least back then ball control offenses were still a thing at the collegiate level. They aren’t and haven’t been in well over a decade. Even Nick Saban figured that out a long time ago and adjusted.

Our problem is not even that we aren’t necessarily as talented as we need to be at the quarterback position. It’s that we don’t even remotely try to help our quarterback do anything- literally anything- that he can do well. We don’t try designed QB runs. We rarely roll him out, and when we do, we have him roll out right as a left handed quarterback. We throw screen after screen after screen. We do nothing to scheme receivers open. We do nothing to incorporate different formations to try to scheme matchup advantages. We do nothing creative, we call the same place in the same down and distance scenarios over and over, we are completely predictable. Any defensive coordinator knows exactly what we are going to run. We are completely unimaginative. We are extremely poor managers of the clock and our timeouts. We punt the ball and kick field goals in situations where analytics routinely say we should go for it.

Belichick wants to win college football games in 2025 the same exact way that he won professional football games in 1985 or 1995: with stout defense, clean special teams play, and a highly risk averse offense that huddles every play, does not utilize tempo, and believes that field goals and field position are enough to win football games week in and week out.

I also can absolutely positively not be convinced in any circumstance that Max Johnson or either one of the two freshman are apparently so bad that they are not worth even giving a try. There is no humanly way that is possible. This is 100% pigheaded stubbornness on the part of the head coach. It’s also a big reason why I am extremely skeptical that next year is going to magically be much better offensively- it’s because our offensive problems run much, much more fundamentally deep than simply lacking in P4 talent at the QB position. Our problems are almost entirely schematic and philosophical, and that’s much, much harder for a 73 year old head coach to change.
