We asked readers if Bill Belichick will translate his NFL coaching success into college at North Carolina.
Here are the results from our online poll, Instagram and X:
- Yes. They’ll make a few bowl games. — 28 votes (36%)
- No. They’ll struggle and he’ll retire soon. — 21 votes (27%)
- No. He’ll leave for the NFL sooner than later. — 13 votes (17%)
- Yes. They’ll make the College Football Playoffs. — 13 votes (17%)
- Other — 2 votes (3%)
Here’s what some readers said about the change (answers have been edited for clarity and grammar):
I have to laugh when I hear people say Belichick is the greatest head coach of all time. He is an excellent defensive coach, but was a losing head coach before Tom Brady came to the Patriots, and he was a loser after Brady left. I doubt if he’ll be successful at North Carolina. — Robert
I wouldn’t expect much (unless, of course, Tom Brady still has eligibility). — Laurence Berbert
