## Resource

Paul Finebaum is blasting Bill Belichick’s stint at North Carolina, calling it “pathetic” and “embarrassing,” and urging the legendary coach to consider retiring. Finebaum argues Belichick took the job out of bitterness after NFL rejection, picked the wrong college environment, and is failing to replicate his NFL success—despite six Super Bowl rings. With Vegas setting North Carolina’s win total at just 4.5, even five wins would be seen as a triumph. The Tar Heels open 2026 against TCU in Ireland, a rematch of last year’s 48-14 blowout. Finebaum’s scathing take reflects growing concern over Belichick’s future—and whether this is the end of his storied coaching career.
