## Resource

The North Carolina Tar Heels are locked in a fierce quarterback battle heading into the 2026 season, with four contenders—Billy Edwards Jr., Miles ONeill, AuTori Newkirk, and freshman Travis Burgess—all healthy and ready to compete. Head coach Bill Belichick, ever the mystery man, refuses to name a starter, famously declaring there are “no leaders in the clubhouse.” With the team heading to Ireland to face TCU on August 29, the competition is wide open, and fans will have to wait and see who emerges from this high-stakes race.
