He's writing Belichicks that his body cannot cash
UNC fans are beyond restless.
This is what “over” feels like
We’re all seeing and feeling the same thing, right?www.tarheelblog.com
Over? More like never got started.
On the surface, naming an interim seems like it can't be any worse.

Am I missing something here, or is the only connection that he was on UCLA's staff for literally one year and spent two more years in the NFL in LA? Lol, I'm not sure I would leave Washington for UCLA right now, and I'm even less sure that UCLA could currently pony up any more money than Washington could to retain him...
Lately all the buzz has been him or Jonathan Smith …
Fisch isn’t exactly on the hot seat at Washington but it’s certainly warm …
They weren’t competitive against Ohio State … And barely got by a weak Maryland team …
6-6 won’t cut it at UW … 7-5 (which is I think what they’ll be realistically) … That’s just getting by …
Never want to be the guy that follows the guy …
They have one loss. Remaining games: Rutgers, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, Purude, UCLA, Oregon. If they're going 7-5, it means they're losing one of Rutgers, Purdue, Wisconsin, UCLA.
It's interesting, there's a wide range of possibilities for the Washington team we face in a couple weeks.
If they can beat Rutgers and Michigan they could be 6-1, ranked, and on the verge of a big season (us and Oregon could be the only teams with winning records left on their schedule at that point). I think at that point you're getting the best version of that team and it's a very tough game.
On the other end of the spectrum, they could lose both those games, and then they're 4-3 and on the verge of having the wheel fall off.
Interesting variable considering that Washington game has a lot of importance to our season. Win that, and we are set up very nicely in the last 4.
I'd be ecstatic if we can be as competitive against Ohio State as they were.
I watch a fair amount of UW football because of family connections, and since Fisch got there UW has been so inconsistent. They'll make an amazing play. Then on the next one shoot themselves in the foot with an undisciplined mistake. Fisch always seems like a deer in the headlights wondering what to do next.
An ugly look inside the UNC collapse.

High school coaches, former players question whether Belichick's style will succeed with recruits
WRAL spoke to several sources including high school football coaches, former UNC players and an NIL agent who say Bill Belichick’s demeanor when it comes to recruiting and dealing with former players is starting to sour people from the program.

I gotta say, any 70+ year old man is a terrible fit for either the pro or college game as a HC today. Seriously, just imagine how many young, upstart, future star coaches are out there... and how lazy and cynical it was to hire a decrepit 'ole coot who knew nothing about the sport of CFB. I don't like to take pleasure in others' misfortunes, but the UNC brass who engineered this fiasco should be ridiculed and fired. This is just pathetic.
The root cause identified.
Except for maybe Pete Carroll, that guy is different.
But I don't blame UNC at all. It looked like a no brainer, bring in a legendary coach. Kids would presumably flock to play for an NFL legend. But as we've been discussing here, is Belichick really a legend or was he Tom Brady's coach? I personally think his legacy has been tarnished, but he's still an elite all time coach. Brady didn't play defense, and New England had some strong defenses when they were winning titles.
To me the folly was, you brought in an old guy who has never coached in the college games. Can anyone think of any college coach that has gone to the pros and excelled or vice versa? They're just different games. And yes I know there are a few that have had some success, but I challenge anyone to come up with more than a handful of names.
Everyone of us on this board have seen this movie before and know first hand how it’s ends.
It must deflate your ego knowing that all of your professional success is on the back of another man.
Franklin's buyout is like 58 million or something.
Fickell is done. I watched the highlights of that game and if that's the best that they can do at home against Iowa....
They are both DONE …
Wiscy is flat out really, really bad, especially on offense.
