Fans have accused the legendary Bill Belichick of trying to copy the Colorado Buffaloes‘ Deion Sanders by showing off a more casual approach to his training sessions as he takes over the reins at the University of North Carolina.
The iconic 72-year-old, who celebrates his birthday on April 16, trades the NFL for the NCAA as he takes on college football for the first time in his career by joining the Tar Heels.
And he seems as though he’s having a good time, despite it being a sharp change of pace from the professional scene; where he claimed six Super Bowls with the New England Patriots.
Smiling and enjoying himself as he teaches the next generation of footballing talent how to play the game, some fans aren’t impressed as one goes as far as accusing him of copying a rival.
A user said to X.com, formerly Twitter, “Who are we kidding? Bill is trying his best to copy Prime. The only thing is, Prime has swag and Bill doesn’t.”
Fans defend Belichick
The 57-year-old Sanders is known for his laid back and relaxed style, fostering a fun environment for his players to grow as people and learn how to play the sport, part of why the Buffaloes reached the Alamo Bowl in 2024/25.
This main criticism, however, relates to Belichick‘s decision to bring Lil Wayne aboard for a promotional event where he received a Tar Heels jersey and walked through the training campus, talking with the ex-Patriot.
Of course, criticising a legendary NFL personality online opens you up to a response from the community and that’s what the user got as fans rushed to defend Belichick’s honor.
One user wrote, “Bill has 8 rings [two as an assistant]. He has ultimate swag.”
A second commented, “Why? They are too young to know prime Wayne.”
And a third said, “Get these two [Belichick/Wayne] on a podcast.”

Trenére, proč na pozápasové povinnosti nedorazil Martin Svědík?Musím ho omluvit. V zápase ztratil hlas.

Zkrátka jsme museli v zápase zabrat úplně všichni a Martin to odnesl hlasivkami. Ale jsme rádi, že jsme vyhráli. Zápas podle mě vystihuje slovo „efektivita“.

NFL Preseason Week 3 Game Recap: Philadelphia Eagles 19, New York Jets 17
Philadelphia capped its preseason with a 19-17 win at MetLife Stadium, holding off a fourth-quarter push from New York’s backups. Both teams rested the bulk of their starters, with Jalen Hurts and Justin Fields among those in street clothes. Jets rookie QB Adrian Martinez led two late touchdown drives to cut a 16-point deficit to two, but a missed two-point attempt and a turnover on downs ended the comeback. Undrafted WR Jamaal Pritchett contributed on offense and special teams, totaling 117 all-purpose yards. PFF's dedicated team of graders was hard at work, analyzing every player on every play in real time. The comprehensive grades and data will be available after a thorough review tomorrow at 12 p.m. EST. In the meantime, we’ve gathered some high-level data and snap counts from the game to give you an early look. Our expert […]
A Squirrel Interrupts Rivalry Between Red Sox and Yankees in the 4th inning
A squirrel ran onto the field during Friday night's game between the Yankees and the Red Sox and caused a brief delay.The speedy critter emerged from an area behind the plate in the fourth inning and stopped behind Boston rookie Jhostynxon Garcia’s left foot as the outfielder took a timeout and adjusted his batting gloves. The squirrel stopped for a second on the third-base foul line before heading to the front of the mound, where it briefly tried to dig a hole as Yankee ace Max Fried looked on."I said, ‘Really, that’s going to happen to me in my MLB debut, that's unbelievable," Garcia said through an interpreter after Boston's 1-0 win — a victory that saw them jump New York in the AL Wild-Card standings. After stopping on the mound, the squirrel sped towards first baseman Ben Rice, went past […]
