00:00There is breaking news, and that is Steve Belichick is no longer with the football program at UNC.
00:06Holy cow.
00:08And so he has resigned.
00:11Oh, you think that means there's more news coming out?
00:13I mean, that's what happened with Lombardi, right?
00:14So Steve Belichick has resigned as the defensive coordinator at UNC.
00:20I told you that was coming if Bill wanted to stay.
00:23They probably gave him an ultimatum.
00:24Like, you want to stick around, you got to move on.
00:26You got to move your kid.
00:27And he's like, you're fired, son?
00:30What a horrible.
00:32This is awful.
00:35That is awful.
00:36It's actually good in the sense where now he's no longer with the program.
00:42Any issue that comes out of this, we've dealt with it.
00:46We've got rid of the guy who was a problem to the program, and now Bill's able to continue on.
00:51But I'm assuming, I guess we shouldn't assume, but I'm assuming that they have determined in the investigation,
00:58that the allegations were legit.
01:01Right.
01:01This is not some.
01:03Some of them, yeah, I would imagine.
01:04Well, the main one was, you know, that he was using drugs at the facility and giving them to at
01:11least a player.
01:13See, that's where the one, I don't know, because if you've given them to a player,
01:18now there's going to be a criminal investigation coming.
01:22Well, there may be.
01:23Right.
01:23There may be.
01:24I mean, this legitimizes the entire report.
01:27Well, I just, I don't know if it legitimizes the entire report.
01:30I just look back at Lombardi walking away from UNC in that exact day was when the bombshell of a
01:39report came out immediately after.
01:40In my opinion, I don't think that Steve Belichick using whatever, any type of drugs,
01:46the allegations in the facility would lead to a bombshell.
01:50In my opinion, I think it's going to be the worst of the two, giving it to athletes.
01:55It also could be that he is, if he is indeed, you know, it was defined as a medical situation.
02:02So if he's recovering, he may have chosen to focus on that as opposed to focusing on work.
02:09And I hope he gets better.
02:09I don't think that if you are doing that, that you resign.
02:14Why would you resign?
02:15Well, because I, and this is what I think, this school gave Bill an ultimatum.
02:19I know, but just on that, Greg, you wouldn't, if I, if I was, if I was seeking help for
02:22alcohol abuse and I needed more help,
02:25I would say, you know, I've extended my stay away medically.
02:28I'm, I will not be returning this season, but I need to stay away.
02:33And that's why I think it'd be more like, Hey Bill, we know what's going on, but we have, you
02:39have to remove him from the program because then at least it's like not.
02:43So you're choosing to salvage whatever's left of the legacy at UNC over your own son.
02:48No, you're basically saying, Hey, this is what I'm going to do.
02:51My kid needs to get the help that he needs to do.
02:53And if we have to remove him from the program and get him to resign to kind of say, all
02:59right, this is your way of walking away.
03:01And Bill being the guy that says, Hey, this is what you got to do, kid.
03:05And I think it's now the full, then what you do is you say, my son is extending his medical
03:09leave.
03:10No, but if he knows that, like the stuff that comes out is not a great look, he then says
03:14you have to, it either happened or it didn't, whether it's, what do you mean?
03:17What's a look?
03:18What do you, what do you mean?
03:19Because here's what I'd say.
03:21And this is all alleged.
03:21I think him, Steve Belichick, if he was doing drugs, like that's not as bad of a look as if
03:29you were actually giving them to athletes.
03:32Right.
03:32And I think that if he was doing drugs as someone who drank at work, I'm saying this, that I
03:38would say I have a serious problem and I need more time away.
03:42I am not ready to coach.
03:44I'm not going to be a distraction for the organization.
03:45I'm extending my medical leave.
03:47Right.
03:48But I think they're going to say you were doing the drugs allegedly in the football facility at work.
03:55Yeah.
03:56At work.
03:56So we, you're, you no longer are going to be working for us.
04:00Like if your boss, if you have the type of boss, he's going to be like, Hey, I get you
04:04have an issue, but because you were doing them in the building, like you have to resign.
04:09Ladies and gentlemen, we interrupt this program.
04:12This is breaking news.
04:15Okay.
04:15Press conference at 11 o'clock.
04:17Bill Belichick expected to name Jordan Hudson as the new defensive coordinator of the UNC Tar Heels.
04:25I don't know why you get me with that.
04:27Every single time.
04:28It's a possibility.
04:30Yeah.
04:30I mean, she's been around the program for quite some time.
04:32She's on, she's on every email.
04:34Knows exactly what's going on down there.
04:36He explained that away to the Wall Street Journal.
04:38Okay.
04:38All right.
04:39Steve Belichick was making a million and a half Curtis down there.
04:44Yes.
04:45He was the highest paid assistant.
04:461.6 million this year.
04:48So $3 million off the books for North Carolina with Lombardi and Steve Belichick on.
04:55I think the fact that he resigned, the, the, the statement is very vague that they released.
05:01My guess is they said, you know, either we're going to do this the easy way or the hard way.
05:05If you resign, like with Mike Lombardi, they will not smear your name publicly other than
05:10to just say that the investigation is complete and found wrongdoing.
05:13Does he get any kind of a severance package?
05:16Oh, maybe I shouldn't use the word package.
05:18Oh, God.
05:19Does he get, does he get any, does he get a severance payout?
05:22Any of that at all?
05:23Or is that.
05:24If you resign, I mean, that's it.
05:25He's paid through October 27th.
05:27And then he is.
05:29Go away.
05:30Give yourself a couple of years and then you'll, you'll come back and you, somebody will hire.
05:34You'll love connection.
05:35I did.
05:35Yeah.
05:36It wasn't that long ago that you told us he would be coaching in the NFL as a head coach
05:40within the next two years.
05:42Well, yeah.
05:42I mean, he was on his way until unfortunately something happened to get in his way.
05:48He was definitely on his way.
05:49You think he was on his way this year?
05:51No, no, no, not this year.
05:52Not this year.
05:54Wasn't he, was, what was his role at the coaching position before?
05:57In Washington?
05:58Yeah.
05:59He was in D.C.
05:59Okay.
06:00Yeah, he was in D.C.
06:01And he did a good job with Washington.
06:04Yeah, Jet Fish and the Huskies over there.
06:06And then ultimately it didn't kind of pan out in North Carolina.
06:10And then he kind of got in the way, in the way of himself.
06:14Bill could be 3-0.
06:15Yeah.
06:16After this weekend with a win over Clemson and everything will be sunny and bright over there.
06:22If he's 3-0.
06:23And then getting ready to host number four, Notre Dame in Chapel Hill.
06:30Man, he beats them.
06:32He's on his way.
06:33Yep.
