What began as a historic debut for Bill Belichick at North Carolina quickly spiraled into a nightmare, With the Tar Heel sideline packed by star alumni and cultural icons, including Michael Jordan and Mia Hamm, plus the coach’s girlfriend Jordon Hudson cheering in UNC blue, expectations were sky high.
Instead, UNC trailed 41-14 at the end of the third quarter, their offense stalling and defense overwhelmed. This turned the debut into a harsh reminder of just how much the jump from NFL to college sideline can be misjudged.

A debut overshadowed by a collapse
Belichick entered Monday night carrying the weight of his soried NFL career, but the Tar Heels looked nothing like a team coached by the six time Super Bowl champion. By the beginning of the fourth quarter, TCU had already racked up 41 points, torching UNC’s secondary and dominating in the trenches.
Quarterback Gio Lopez struggled to move the ball and ended up leaving the game because of an injury just as the last quarter started. Max Johnson, nearly over a year after nearly losing his leg, was able to score the second touchdown for the home team.
Michael Jordan, Jordon Hudson and the stands spectacle
If the scoreboard brought disppointment, the stands and sideline looked like a Hall of Fame reunion. Michael Jordan’s rare public appearance in Chapel Hill electrified the crowd, with the Tar Heel legend seated alongside fellow icons Lawrence Taylor, Mia Hamm, and Julius Peppers.
Belichick’s girlfriend Jordon Hudson also drew attention, standing in Tar Heel blue near NFL great Randy Moss. A reminder that the coach’s personal life remains firmly in the spotlight.

Bill Belichick’s UNC Debut Exposed Flaws — But It’s Too Soon to Panic
Bill Belichick's debut as North Carolina's head coach might have been the worst game of his head coaching career.The 48 points UNC gave up to TCU on Monday night were more than any Belichick-coached team gave up in any game during his 29 seasons as an NFL head coach. The 48-14 final was also tied for the second-largest margin of defeat in Belichick's head coaching career. After Belichick's Tar Heels committed a multitude of errors that allowed the Horned Frogs to score 41 straight points in Monday's game, FOX Sports lead college football analyst Joel Klatt admitted that he's a bit concerned about UNC. However, he has some hope that the six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach can work some of his magic, while getting some scheduling luck, to right the ship in Chapel Hill. "Am I worried about North Carolina? Yeah, a […]

Os vários recados de Ancelotti para Neymar
O técnico Carlo Ancelotti deu uma série de recados para o atacante Neymar, além de responder, com tranquilidade e em bom português, ao comentário do craque sobre a ausência na convocação. Em entrevista coletiva nesta quarta-feira antes do jogo com o Chile, o italiano enumerou algumas prerrogativas para eleger 25 dos 70 atletas que disse serem convocáveis pelo Brasil.

Depois, estar 100% fisicamente. E que encaixem bem para a equipe. Que joguem para a equipe, não para o individual.
