He's going to triple Lindy his way to Chapel Hill. Earlier on the show, Texas head coach Steve Sarkeesian, Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson. Coming up, actor Rob Corddry, plus latest news and more. And now it's Rich Eisen. Our number three of the Rich Eisen Show is on the air.
And I guess, guys, be honest, man, this is just wild. I'm looking at a live shot of a Carolina blue curtain and a podium covered with Carolina blue, you know, table, you know, cloth balloons, balloons. Do you think Bill said, I am not signing unless there's balloons? Yeah. I got to have balloons on either side. And then Bill is just going to take one of the balloons and suck in the helium and go, I'm just so happy to be back in college. Is that always going to work today?
No. That's so bad. I just can't believe this is amazing. He is about to be introduced as the next head coach of the University of North Carolina football program. Like this is happening. Like he's going to end his vaunted great college career. Look at him coming out of the, is that a Carolina blue car? He's smiling. 10 million a year, five-year deal reportedly in his pocket. You know, they sent out a photograph of him as a kid in the stands because his dad, Steve, was an assistant in the mid-50s there before going on to Navy. Right.
And he was a ball boy. And, you know, and so Bill's sitting there in the stands in a black and white photo. This could change the way college, baby boy. It's awesome.
Like they're gonna be more pro coaches. I don't know about that, dude. Right.
I don't know. He's the only one who says my boat is called eight rings. What about yours? And I have to change the paint every now and then the paint job.
I had to change it every now and then I get the bottom clean too rich. That costs a lot of money, right? I mean, it's nuts. It's nuts. He's about to be introduced.
It's crazy. And the question is, you know, I mean, who does he, who does he bring back? Is it the entire band together? Does he bring in somebody from college? I guess he brings in his son from the University of Washington defensive staff. Everyone's been assuming that. I don't know.
Please. You know, pop that photo up. Look at that. That's Belichick. That is Bill. Is he screaming? You know what he's screaming from the stands? Do your job.
That's what he's screaming. Where he had already done his job, right? Earlier in the day.
You might be in the middle of doing the job, right? No, I don't think so. He's a little older than that. He's older than that.
You're never too old to have that happen. Oh my word. I still can't believe it. But we'll, as soon as he starts talking, we'll do our best before we get out of Dodge today to, as they say in the TV business, turn that sound around. Rob Corddry, a Patriot fan, just like you. And one of the stars of Bookie, just like yesterday's in studio guests, Omar Dorsey, is about to come on out here. We'll talk about that with him.
He's a diehard fantasy player as well. And he's one of our favorite, funny guests to come here on the program. Let's go to Nate in Colorado.
Take your phone call here on the Rich Eisen Show. What's up, Nate? Nate, you there? Nate. Morning, gentlemen. What's going on, Nate? You're on, bro.
Hey, Rich. I think I've got the answer to your question. Okay, sure. We're all in agreement that Belichick's usually two or three steps ahead of everybody. Okay.
And knows the answers to the test before it's ever given? Yep. I, and it didn't dawn on me till after your first hour interview, I could see Arch Manning the day after Texas was eliminated or when's the Maddie that he announces he's going to North Carolina. I swear, Nate, I swear to you, I thought about this yesterday. What? That would break the internet. I thought about that yesterday, guys.
He works with his two uncles. I mean, you don't think Peyton and Eli are going, hey, Arch, you know, he is the greatest coach of all time. Oh, here's the thing, Nate. First of all, obviously everybody else here kind of likes the cut of your jib, the way you're thinking, the way you're wired, Nate.
I just don't see it. Obviously where he is, is a great spot and Sark is no slouch and Arch will have a team surrounding and thanks to the call, Nate, Arch will have a team surrounding him that without question is deeper and more talented and ready to roll in the final two years of his college career, one would think, or year of his college career to win it all than North Carolina. And obviously you would love to be coached by Belichick and things of that nature. But, and I know, you know, Bill is currently one of the many jobs he is probably leaving. I imagine he's not going to do both.
I imagine one way in which he is not Dion is to continue to like Dion doing a talk show on Tubi as well as running the Colorado football program and then showing up in New York for the Heisman trophy. I don't know if Bill's going to do that, but I know he works with the two of Arch's, the Arch's two uncles, right, on the Manning cast. That, that, that ain't happening. That ain't happening.
But you'd love that, wouldn't you? You know what? I'm looking at the press conference right now.
Can we have somebody ask that question? Can you, can you get Arch, is Arch coming to the board? Oh, that's the way he's, you know, first announcement, first order of business. And another thing.
Just not happening. But you guys like the cut of his jib right there, right? Well, you know, I do.
As the number one Arch fan. I didn't even think about that. Oh, yeah. You know, I only got one thing on my mind, of course. Which is you're getting a boat. Boat for sale right across from you. Getting a boat.
Through the card, through his cards. More than one. Might get a houseboat now. Arch, you want a catamaran? A catamaran. Powercat.
Catamaran. Big game tonight. Big game this weekend in the city of Philadelphia. The Steelers and the Eagles haven't at it. And then, of course, the Eagles had at it with one another.
I mean, A.J. Brown, after the passing game at only 100 passing yards and he had only four targets, four catches in the win over Carolina. His postgame press conference, if you will, back and forth with the media where he had gave two three word answers and it sounded like he was really upset, like he was on the sideline with Jalen Hurts. Brandon Graham, the OG of the team, locally giving his two cents saying that these guys aren't friends anymore. And so Hurts is trying and number 11, as you're referring to Brown, needs to try to keep things in house more. And then Brandon Graham apologized because him talking out of house like that, even though he's out of uniform right now because he's hurt for the rest of the season. He took that back saying, I'm speaking in a way that I shouldn't have. And yesterday, everybody just trying to bury it right now, saying there's no there there, was saying it was Graham's issues. This was A.J. Brown at his locker yesterday saying everybody needs to move on. Yeah, B.G., just being B.G. is emotional. In that case, he's just misspoke. You know, me and Jalen are good. So it's B.G.
Everybody loves B.G. You know, he's speaking from the heart. You know, he's giving this perception or something from the outside.
He's around you guys, you know, all the time, though. Could you see where there might be a misperception based off of? I think I think that's what everybody I think that's what the world did. You know, they perceived what I said about passing and felt like it was an attack on Jalen. And I think that's what he did. You know, me and Jalen's relationship is personal. So I mean, me and his relationship is very good. So if it's not an attack on Jalen, is it on the offensive coordinator or just in general, just the world is not his oyster enough?
I don't know. So Brandon Graham, he's the one who's emotional. As you know, I always came for the Wolverine, but. All right, Jalen Hurts, your turn. We're good.
We're good. You know, sometimes things change as dynamics change. But for him, he knows how to love a lot of love for him, just like I got a lot of love for all these guys. And ultimately, you know, he's a guy that he's a guy that's a competitor. You know, he wants to win. He damn sure wants the ball. And he wants to he wants to make an impact in the game. And I respect that, you know, and that's just like all of us.
Okay. Damn sure wants the ball. Guys, let me ask you a question. It's still rare to have a nine game win streak in the NFL. Have you ever heard of a team on a nine game win streak?
Have a controversy filled we quite like the Philadelphia Eagles in twenty twenty four. No. A.J. Brown's getting 10 catches this week, though, you better believe.
Do you think so? I mean, come on. What happened last year? It's not like the Steelers or the Washington Generals to their Globetrotters, just because A.J. Brown wants the football. I mean, Jamis Winston throw over him. What do you think this receiver corps is going to do, pal? I, I, I don't, I don't think that's apples to apples here. I don't know, man.
Here's the deal. The Eagles, if they're going to win it all, if they're going to win the entirety of the National Football League this year, Saquon and that defense shall lead them. And you know what will help open a passing game more often than not? Saquon Barkley. Does it matter who's scoring?
Does it? Honestly, this wouldn't have been an issue if A.J. Brown just said, we've won nine in a row. I got upset on the sideline.
And there's nothing. We've turned the page. On to Pittsburgh.
Instead, he's just like, it's a three and out. The passing game needs to improve. Leading the coach, basically saying, I took it to me and like, he just wants to improve. And then the quarterback's now forced to say, it's just, I, I need to improve.
Passing game does need to improve though. Fine. Great. Okay. All right.
And you think it shall improve just because A.J. Brown says, I want the football. Yes.
All right. I do. I think for the Eagles to win this game, Saquon Barkley needs to lead the way. That's what I think. And then keep leading the way by getting the ball to the one yard line, only to have Jalen Hurts score 10 out of the 11 times that he's taken the ball to one yard line.
Okay. This guy has an opportunity to win the most valuable player in the National Football League this year and go to the Super Bowl. And guess who's scoring all the touchdowns that he's going to win this year. He's going to win the National Football League this year and go to the Super Bowl. And guess who's scoring all the touchdowns that he is setting up when he's not running through the red zone and the end zone? The quarterback. Is he saying I need to score more? I don't know, man.
And when it all comes down to it, does it matter? I mean, even if they lose this game, guess what? I think it does because they need to have the Lions come to them. Don't you think? They could use it.
They could use the Vikings coming to them. Yeah. Home Field doesn't matter as much in the NFL as it used to.
Oh, pal. So I disagree with that big time. I know the Chiefs proved it last year. It does not, but it takes a very special team to prove it that it does not. I mean, also the odds don't reflect that either. Ask the 49ers if Home Field advantage meant anything for the Bills a couple nights ago. I mean, yeah, man. I mean, we just had Justin Jefferson did an entire interview in a puffy coat. They play indoors.
That's what I'm saying. Would you rather if you're the Eagles and you have to play the Vikings, would you rather do it in their house or would you rather do it in your own? I'd rather the dome team be outside. Same thing with the Lions too.
I know they're like, we'll just smash it down your throat. So we'll find out if it matters or not. There's Bill Belichick being introduced and being clapped for and now shaking hands like the deal is closed. He's on NFL Network and ESPN right now. And it looks like there's holding up a hoodie. Well, I think the athletic director just put on a jacket with the sleeves cut off. His suit just put on, you know, they took that out. Is he really? They got a North Carolina hoodie for him and they got it.
Yeah, I got it all working right now. I think those Carolina Jordan 11s are coming out in the next couple of weeks too. BB addition of jays. Oh, he's triple lindying into this thing.
It's crazy for real. Is he going to knock down all the walls? And Mike, that's one giant apartment, jacuzzi in the head of the jacuzzi and the dorm room. Is he going to get Kurt Vonnegut coming and write the term paper?
Why don't you call me when you have no class? Here it comes, man. It is starting. Oh, that's great. This is awesome. Oh yeah. You think Bill spent a lot of time on a high dive board?
Probably see a triple lindy go off here very soon. I mean, Michael in Portland, Oregon, you're on the rich guys and show what's up, Michael. I cannot believe that Bill Belichick is going to give up chasing Shula. And I think North Carolina is a perfect placeholder for him. A college team is a great place to hang out. If he succeeds, then he's Bill Belichick. He succeeds at college and pro.
If the wheels fall off the bus, he can simply say, well, that was college and I'm ready. I think it's a great place to hang out for a year or two until Andy Reid retires. I like to think that Belichick is going to go into Kansas City and replace Reid when Reid retires. Listen, the fact that he's taking the job at North Carolina for me to sit here and say that sounds outlandish, what you just said means anything can happen, but that sounds outlandish, Michael.
I don't see him. This is a lifelong cheese fan. I can hope.
I can have dreams. Hey man, Andy Reid's going to live forever. But after he wins three in a row, I think he's going to retire and enjoy the cheeseburgers.
I don't know about that either, but thanks for the food for thought. There's Michael in Portland. And by the way, this is it for Bill. That's why it's so stunning that he's going to North Carolina. It's not going to lay like, well, I'll win a couple of years and now I'll go back to the pros. If they didn't want to hire Bill at 72, someone's going to hire Bill at 75?
No. I mean, this is it. This is his last stop. He has made this as his choice. And the fact that he's chosen college at his last stop is really a stunner. Did you see the little snippet that was going around yesterday from David Halberstrom's book 20 years ago that he did with Bill saying that he wouldn't be surprised if Bill took like an Ivy League job or some small school towards the end.
And that's kind of what's happening. Well, what he's doing is if Bill Belichick does this because it makes him happy, then that's what anybody wants. If they're still so fortunate to have a job that you love and you have a profession that still is willing to hire you in your early 70s, then you check that box. If he wants to try and have a chance to go and succeed at a job, you check that box too. If he does in fact win a championship, a college football championship, you could sit here and say it seals the fact that he's the greatest coach of all time, but I think that's already decided.
It just would be one of the most remarkable cherries on top ever if he does that. And he is, you know, he is wise enough to choose a spot where he is wanted. He is wise enough to choose a spot where he's wanted now rather than wait for the NFL team in the bush. And then he's wise enough to situate himself just like back in the day.
I mean, he didn't do this on purpose. It just worked out this way. The AFC East was just filled with a bunch of franchises that just couldn't put, couldn't tie their shoelaces. And if you want to choose a conference right now to try and of the power five, right?
You want to choose one that has a seat at the table? When you, when you look into the ACC, if I'm not mistaken, I'm seeing the back of Julius Peppers at the press conference. So they're rolling it out at North Carolina. That's what you're going to get when Bill Belichick is your HC.

See store for details. Rob Corddry here everybody on the Rich Eisen Show. I'm a bad person. Anyway, I have a lot of meetings and writing and this is what I, I mean, it's not digging holes, right? But it's a busy week. And then last night, I know I'm coming in here at some point, I look at my calendar and I see the Rich Eisen Show on my calendar and I go, Oh, thank God.
We're a breather? And my wife is there. Never, never hears that from me.
What? I got rich Eisen tomorrow. And my wife goes, Who? Not a sports fan. It's fine.
Just not a sports fan. She would love you by the way. Well, I mean, we, we have a similar, uh, pate.
We have a similar look. You know, let me put my glasses on. You are God, you know, you are her type. I have to see what I'm saying. You are her type and you're smart. You're smarter than I am.
You will, you will never meet my wife. Look at this. Look at that shot that we have ready to handsome, very masculine. I would agree. I would agree. We've got same and similar look glass. I mean, I probably said it on this show.
You know, the reason people lose their hair is an excess in testosterone. Um, let me write that down for later. Let me write that down for another day. Yeah. Okay.
You can use that. And look at you coming in here on the day, Bill Belichick is named the head coach at university of North Carolina football. What did I say before you went live? And I was sitting here in the chair, something like, great. I was just sitting here, like moping, like, of course, that's son of a gun. It's unbelievable.
That day I'm doing rich eyes at my favorite sports show. Belichick has got to like pull the rug out from under me. Look at him. He's being introduced as we speak. He's talking. He's smiling.
He's saying words. He looks like he's like doing bits. He can be a funny guy. Probably actually can be a little funny.
I mean, I think doing bits is that's funny. He is, you know, he's doing his a materially. Look at him. He's a dry, it's a dry humor, but, um, he, uh, as we were saying, this is the last, this is the most you'll hear him speak from now on. It'll be gone like the wind. No more.
That's it. You'll only hear from him after. You stole my one punchline, apparently, which you told me about this in the green room. I just found out 10 minutes ago.
That's true. Cause you've been a busy man. And I was sitting there watching going, I got nothing. I got nothing. Oh, I got one thing. On the Wake Forest.
And Rich goes, yeah, we already said that before. And this is why you and I are very similar. I guess I chose that.
I think it's Wake is a funny word to say. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know? Yeah. Oh man. Let's get deep on this.
We're moving on to Vatek. Plosives are funny. What's in the, in that, what's a good, any P's in there?
I don't know. Maybe somebody's got a, you know, does he, does somebody have to tell him what a hokey is? You know, that's a Virginia tech hokey. Boston College isn't, this isn't funny. No, that doesn't have the same ring to it.
Not funny at all. On to Boston College. On to Georgia Tech. We're moving on to Georgia Tech.
That's pretty much what it is. On the Wake. I can't believe it. He's going back to school, man. He's a college head coach.
I mean, I have as much to say, I'm glad I have as much to say about it as you guys appear to say. Cause I, I watch you guys like, I don't know. I know. Shocking. Nobody knows.
I don't know. Cause imagine all those years you're going through, you know, you're a Patriot fan. You're watching, you know, this unfold in the most generationally unique way. And that his career is going to finish up at school, in college.
I feel like he's been my like grumpy uncle for the past however many years it comes to Thanksgiving with like a thick book, you know, it sits in the corner and you're like, God, Uncle Bill, it's just Uncle Bill. And now, I don't know, I guess I'm gonna have to watch college. Yes. I mean, that's better anyway, right? That's what I hear. Well, you have the time on the weekends, right?
Saturdays now. I mean. You can tell your family I'll see you. I got to watch Carolina. I got to watch Carolina Wake. See if they'll laugh at that.
I've already tried that with basketball. It doesn't, my wife did not buy this ticket. Like, I don't know, when I was in New York, I, and met her, I wasn't watching a lot of sports. And so she didn't know that I'd be like, oh, by the way, I'm a football fan. And most Saturdays, oh, it was when the Red Zone channel became a thing. I was like, guess what?
Saturdays, I'm going to be like in my office, schizophrenically watching like all of the games at once. Yes. And she was like, okay, you get one sport. Oh. And I said, thank you.
That's right. You know, I was like, I'll take it. You may have another, but she told you there's only one sport.
I could make the argument that college football is the same sport. How many fantasy teams or fantasy leagues are you? As I recall, you had an unhealthy amount last time you were here.
I don't know if you were able to talk about it, right? Four. Four.
And a Pickham League. Okay. Which I'm doing well in.
I always do well in that. Oh, is that right? Yeah. I mean, I just do what Vegas does. Which is?
That's, I go, what's the spread? Oh, I thought you said you fixed it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wait a minute. I cheat. That's what he says. I'm in organized crime.
Rob Corddry. I had no idea. Well, you're in bookie, so you might have been introduced to something going on. Slightly organized. So you're in four fantasy leagues. Are you in any?
Did you reach the playoffs in any? So I'm, you know, I come in here, you know, always peacocking around trophies with me. I'm getting pretty good at fantasy over the years. And I don't know, man, there's a sweet spot of preparation. Yes.
15, 20 years, I still haven't found the right, like, dialed it in. Because I would over-prepare and be garbage. I would under-prepare and win. Yes. So now, like, this year, I just didn't prepare. I just phoned it in. Yes. Garbage. I am, I am. That's no good. I am, for the first time in my fantasy football career, playing in the consolation bracket. Oh, boy.
That's a sad, sad place. Yeah. Consolation bracket. It's like everybody gets a trophy. Plus, who plays fantasy for pride, right? Like, you got to play for bragging rights. Playing for bragging rights and cash.
I want cash. So you're in the consolation, all four leagues, you're in a consolation bracket? Or just the one that you really want to win? No, and some of the leagues don't even have that. Oh, boy.
They're like, well, we're just having fun. No. Oh, my gosh. You can still play if you want. Like, and I do. I was like on the waiver wire yesterday, furiously drafting players.
Like, why am I doing this? And did you pick anybody up? Did we get anybody here? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I got a fella named Sincere. Sincere McCormick. By the way, not a bad waiver wire pick up for you, sir. You know.
For the Raiders. I'm pretty proud of myself. I'm like, who? Oh, this guy's awesome. I don't know.
He's going to be, I will go so far as to say, next year's keeper. Really? Okay. What's your name of your team that Sincere McCormick is now on right now? You know, with team names, I can't say most of them on. Oh, no, that one, I believe, is called Finger Time. I don't know why that one caught me. That one caught me. I didn't expect Finger Time.
And I'll explain just briefly, my favorite thing in the world are those NFL bad lip reading videos, and the very first one, one of the ref goes, Finger Time. And that was it. I think one of my other names is Knife School. Knife School? As in, I'm taking you to knife school. Okay. I appreciate using that in the form of a sentence, because that was unfamiliar as to how it would actually work. Yeah, it sounds, I don't know, it sounds badass. Okay. Doesn't it?
Finger Time. And then, I don't know, my family one is probably like Cordry's team, Rob's team. Rob C's team. And I don't remember. That's the fantasy that you're in.
Okay, fantastic. Rob Cordry here. I don't go with the puns. I like it. I don't go with the puns.
You know, nor does Paul Rudd, right? His first one was Dench, exclamation point. Dench! That was it. Another one was a floral arrangement.
What was it? A floral arrangement. Yeah. No, a floral moment, because he saw that on a website.
It's beautiful there. Called a floral moment. Like, that's kind of the way to go. It's like, what is the most anti-football? Obscure, random. Well, we also, what we do here is... I'm going to name mine Goop.
Try to get a sponsorship. That's not bad. No joke. Yeah. Hey, that's somebody, I don't know if Gwyneth is a fantasy footballer, but we'll just say stuff on occasion here on the program and just write that down. Says that sounds like a great fantasy team.
Oh, good. What do you got? So... Oh, I have a list of like 50 right now, just from this season. You got, what do you got? How about this one?
I Wanted More Garcia. Okay. We don't know what that is.
He doesn't write down the context of it. I'm going to learn guitar and name my band that. Okay. Finger of Blame, speaking of fingers. Oh, I love Finger of Blame.
Fingers just always works. Yeah. Bloom and Onion Dust. Okay. That's not bad.
I've heard better. Oh, okay. Interesting. Zubaz Exterior.
Zubaz Exterior is just a funny word. Uh huh. Yeah, yeah. Summer of Heineke. Okay. Love that band. Summer of Heineke.
Who could forget it? Uh, Shotgun with Kevin Harlan. Okay. That's not bad. Uh, I get bored. My, my fantasy, my fantasy team name is Sprinkle a Little Erse. It's just Sprinkle of Erse. Again. Sprinkle of Erse.
Back to the... Everything's a circle. Sprinkle. Funny word, man. Sprinkle.
Rob Corddry here on the Rich Eisen Show. Uh, Bookie seems like it's a blast to do. Yeah. Yeah.
There's worse jobs. It's, it's super fun. It's a great group. I mean, there's really very little I can say about it that I don't love.
Right. It's an easy show to do because I just have fun. Maniscalco is just fantastic at being around. You know what's funny about him?
Please. Is that he's, I mean, dare I say, one of the funniest men in America? Yes, sir. Until he's off camera. And then he's like, I don't do it. Nah, I'm not punched in right now. You know, like, he's like, I wait till I punch in. Like, he told a story about how some guy was like, Oh, you're a comedian?
Tell me a joke. And there's no punchline to this story. And it's his story anyway. But like, if you knew Sebastian, he's just like, he like, takes his off time.
He just sits there by himself. He's a great guy. Yeah, of course. Easy to talk to.
Yes, indeed. He doesn't feel like he has to do bits all the time. Like other guys. Who can't, who doesn't shut up.
The old diarrhea of the mouth over in the corner. You know, Sebastian's like, God. Regular, series regular now? Awesome. Well, it's great. I mean, the show is fun, man. It is fun. It's a fun show.
I mean, you know. Were you on the set when Charlie Sheen was there too? No, but I did a table read with Charlie Sheen. And I took my daughter, my 16-year-old daughter, to the premiere last night.
And half of Hollywood was like, bad dad. But you know, my daughter, we took her to see Poor Things. I don't know if you've ever seen that movie. Oh my God. Bad idea. I had no idea.
And then, you know that scene when her toes are curling at the end of the bed and this camera climbs up? And I'm like, why did I think this movie would be about anything other than this? Poor choice.
Poor choices. Yes, indeed. So now, yeah, she can watch the book. Has she seen anything of yours? I think her favorite thing is Unaccompanied Minors.
It's like a kid's Christmas movie that I did. Have you shown her old school yet? No, I mean, am I really in old school? Okay. If you blink. She has watched Hot Tub Time Machine finally. Okay. I forbid my children to see that movie. And she watched it on the sly.
And? I didn't get a straight answer. She was like... And I was like, I'm not going to pursue. How about any of the Will Ferrell movies that you were in? Oh, no, not that I was in, but she loves Will Ferrell. You know, her favorite movie is that Eurovision Song Contest, which is a fantastic underrated movie.
Okay. But yeah, that's probably my favorite movie. Underrated movie, but yeah, that's probably her favorite movie. But I brought her last night, and I don't remember where that story was going. No, no, it's all because I asked her the Charlie Sheen. And I had to explain on the car ride home for about half the car ride home, all the way across town to Silver Lake, who Charlie Sheen was.
Try describing that, you know? Like, pretty big star in the 80s. Great actor.
That's how I started. Oh, oh, Ferris Bueller, remember Ferris Bueller? He was that guy. And she's like, oh, I like him. I was like, just wait. Hold that thought.
But it has a happy ending. Like, he's a fantastic guy. I met him at the table read. I was like, I like Charlie Sheen. Who doesn't like Charlie Sheen? He's great. He's great.
Right. You know, so polite. And that he can repair that relationship with Chuck Lorre after... Yeah.
The biggest explosion to happen in this town in years. I mean, got to be, like, enlightened or something. Well, I mean, he's great. The show is great, man. And I just love having you on here.
I love being on. I'm not leaving. You don't have to.
Thanks. You don't have to. Nobody's kicking you out.
Nobody's kicking you out. What are we talking about next? Patriots. I gotta go.
Go Bats. No? No? Oh, yeah. Always.
Okay. We're rebuilding. You know, it's like rebuilding is rebuilding, guys. You like seeing buildings being built? Yes, of course. Same thing.
Who doesn't like watching the big machines? Architecture. Oh, steam shovels. I just think it's funny that the Patriots are rebuilding using the quarterback they got from North Carolina.
And when they got him from North Carolina, North Carolina's program went so south, they hired Bill Belichick. You just said a mouthful, huh? There you go. God. It's the circle of life. This is the weirdest ride. I'm going to have the weirdest ride home. I like weirder than the one with your daughter yesterday after explaining. Yeah, that was pretty strange, man. That was something I wish I had planned.
Yeah, you can't go platoon. You know, Charlie Sheen comes up on the screen. I'm like Wall Street. No, that's no good. That's not good.
Well, they're great movies, but he's not done a bad thing. You know, right. Two and a half men was really funny. Two and a half men was a funny show. Really funny.
It's a joke machine gun for sure. You know, I know. Well, it's good to have you on. Chuck. Anytime.

What's going on, cousins and my uncle? As usual, we had a little piss at the barbershop. We were wondering if the season ended today and you had to go to one place, where is it harder to win? Uh, Ford Field or Arrowhead Stadium, don't matter how you win because both teams have the same record and until you beat the chaps, you can't beat the chaps. I have not been to Ford Field in a long time, but I have been to Arrowhead, so obviously this may be recency bias, but that place is nuts.
You guys saw it on opening night and obviously the Ravens almost won there anyway. But that's as loud as an outdoor arena, outdoor stadium, have you ever been in? I mean, Seattle is pretty ear-splitting. Seattle's really loud. I've been to a game there, it's really loud. Jeff, all I keep hearing about though is that it's insane right now inside Ford Field the last two years. So what was the answer in the barbershop?
The answer in the barbershop, well, you know, it's Detroit heavy and we travel so well, you know, everybody in the barbershop pretty much came up with the same thing, Detroit. But you know, you still got to watch out for the Chiefs, you know, and it's one of those things. It's a little bit off, but we're still kind of looking forward to it.
Also a great show today. You guys are really, really funny and it's safe to say Bill Belichick should get along with the younger demographic if I can say so myself. Okay, there you go. Thank you so much Jeff for Detroit.
Yes. Okay, our crack staff has turned around some sound bites from Bill Belichick. This was his opening statement being introduced as the head coach of the University of North Carolina football program.
I can't believe it, but this is how he took to the podium and introduced himself, I guess. I always wanted a coach in football, a coach in college football, and it just never really worked out. Some good years in the NFL, so that was okay, but this is really kind of a dream come true. I grew up in college football with my dad as the coach of Navy for 50 years. So as a kid, all I knew was college football and so it's great to come back home to Carolina and back in an environment that I really grew up in.
When you're little, you don't remember everything. Obviously, I was too young to remember a lot of things from Carolina, but as I grew up, you hear the same story over and over and over and over again and so one story I always heard was Billy's first words were, be Duke. Excited to be here, excited to be in college football, excited for the opportunity to build and develop young student athletes, young men, and prepare them for their life either in the NFL or professionally, but the lessons they learn will be professional lessons.
They'll be pros in all areas and that's what we want to develop as well as having a winning program, successful program, but we want to develop good people and good kids and good football players. All right, there you go. Great tie. First of all, going out delivering the red meat, beat Duke, right? Well, at least, I don't know, we'll find out if he shows up at a Carolina basketball game and starts talking to the fans in a southern accent to see if he's really going to go down that road. You know, Rich, I was listening to this press conference.
I got a few things. He said something really funny, that's very Bill. He was talking about the amount of support he's gotten from Carolina, both grads, football players, alumni, and he said, you know, not that I'm a social media expert because I'm not, but there was an awful lot of positive feedback from my face and stuff like that.
So I thought, that's Bill going down his usual path here. Got a few more sound bites. He was asked by why he wants to keep coaching here. At 72, why do you want to keep coaching?
What's in it for you? You've proven yourself over and over and your legacy is set. Why keep coaching? Well, beats working. You know, when you love what you do, and my dad told me this, when you love what you do, it's not work. It's really, I love what I do. I love coaching. I love the interaction with the players. I love building a team, working with the assistants, game planning, the game itself, which, you know, there's some good ones, there's some bad ones, but they're all learning experience and working with, you know, young kids who, with the energy enthusiasm to want to be good, to want to be successful.
That's, you know, it's great every day to wake up and come into that environment. Dude loves it. I've seen it. I believe it. Coach is coach, man.
But that, it's not just that though. This guy in particular, again, I saw it firsthand for all those years. And then I saw it firsthand on the set of the NFL 100 show, which I know I keep returning to, but that's the time I've been exposed to him the most, that he just loves it. He can't get enough of it. He cannot get enough of it.
He just loves drilling down and he loves the game plan. He loves the, I think he loves the cerebral exercise and we'll see if it works with the kids, we've got to, he was asked if things worked out, would he go back to the NFL? I mean, just out of color a few minutes ago, say he's going to stay for a couple of years and then go back to the pros.
I thought that that's, that that's a, that's far fetched. This is his last job, I would think, but this is how he handled the question. Bill, what do you say to people that fear that if you do succeed here, that you might leave for the NFL again in a year or two? You know, I didn't come here to leave. That's an applause line. There you go. Great one.
I didn't come here to leave. He's, he's got to build the program, man. Look what year two for Dion was better than year one. And he had, you know, a quarterback who's arguably first overall pick in the draft and a corner receiver who's going to be a runaway winner of the Heisman.
And even then he didn't make the college football playoffs. So it's going to take some doing for Bill. I don't think he's going anywhere. And as of right now, he's not going anywhere off the podium. He's, he's been up there for almost an hour.
Yeah, still going 45 minutes plus. I mean, and like I said, there is an applause line there as well. And he's happy. And he, I, I just.
Yeah. Someone asked him, well, what did he learn from his time away this past year? He said, being in the media is fun. This sweatshirt was apparently his father's, what his number?
Is that what it is? When his father was coaching in the fifties, that was from his that's, I mean, they're so they're, they're playing it up that, you know, he's got some lineage there. He's got some history there. And obviously the fact that he's Bill Belichick is something that they will be touting till the cows come home.
I'll, I'll tell you who I'm thinking of today. Bill Belichick, coaching the University of North Carolina football team would absolutely flip out, delight, excite Stuart Scott in a way that would be second to none for him. If Stu was alive today and was told that Bill Belichick chose the University of North Carolina football team as his final gig, he would lose his mind. Absolutely lose his mind. And I would have no chance at doing a highlight for the University of North Carolina football.
Absolutely none. And I'm sure his response to hearing that right now, Stu, is, well, like, I would get a Michigan highlight? I was about to say you had a full week of crowing in. So that would be his response. He wouldn't, he would turn it back on me going, so, okay, you get the Michigan ones, I'll get the North Carolina ones.
And I'm sure you signed up for that. Oh, yeah. I mean, sure, but I'd still point out, like, oh, well, you got the Bulls, all the Bulls highlights, you know. But he would have something to say today.
No doubt. He would have something to say today, and he would be the one absolutely calling up B-squared, as I'm sure we would refer to Bill. He would call up B-squared and say, I'm coming down. What do you need from me?
What can I do? I'm going to be there. And, you know, he might have been the one calling Jordan and calling everybody around and Vince Carter and being part of it. He would absolutely lose his mind today.
And it's just another one of those days where I miss his voice and I miss his passion. I miss his excitement, you know, until he starts talking too much about North Carolina and be like, okay, enough. But it's the same way that you guys probably look at me talking about Michigan. But I wonder what Dean Smith would think about. I mean, but that's too. Another way to play this up is you got Dean Smith coached basketball there, and now Bill Belichick is coaching football there, and you really can't. You really can't offer up another spot, right? I mean, this would be like if Bill took the job at UCLA.
Yeah, that's okay. Wooden was here and Bill was here. I mean, like, so if Phil Jackson took a job in Alabama, I mean, like, I'm just trying to figure out what the what the analogy is, what the comparisons are. It's just really off the charts and Andy Reid's got to go to Duke now. So I know it's cooler than the other side of the pillow in North Carolina today.
