## Resource

Bud Elliott sits down with Michael Felder, Andrew Jones, and Noah Weiskopf of Tar Heel 247 to preview North Carolina's 2026 season. The crew discusses year two of the Bill Belichick era in Chapel Hill, the addition of Bobby Petrino as offensive coordinator, and a new-look quarterback room as the Tar Heels try to avoid repeating last season's struggles. Plus, they break down a challenging ACC schedule and whether Belichick is already facing pressure to deliver results. 🎟️ Get 60% off an annual 247Sports subscription: Use code SUMMER26 North Carolina Team Site: https://247sports.com/college/north-carolina/ (0:00) Vibes in Chapel Hill (4:06) Transfer Portal (5:14) Bobby Petrino (8:40) Quarterbacks (12:50) Offensive Line (14:35) Offensive Breakouts (19:40) Defensive Expectations (25:05) Schedule Breakdown 📱FOLLOW • Twitter: https://twitter.com/Cover3podcast • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cbssportscfb/ • TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cbssportscfb?lang=en ▶︎Chip Patterson: https://x.com/Chip_Patterson ▶︎Bud Elliot: https://x.com/BudElliott3 ▶︎Tom Fornelli: https://x.com/TomFornelli ▶︎Danny Kanell: https://x.com/dannykanell
