Speaker 2 (01:03):
Well, Bill Belichick as Carolina on his mind. Well, come
in the beginning of another night of the Ben Valor Show,
a different kind of a night.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
As we are in.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
You know Speccoli Speccoli over there, he said, we got
boots on the ground in Chapel Hill. We got other
listeners there. But Speccoli's very interactive with the show and
this story everyone's been yapping about here. Uh have we
done a wellness check on like Wayne and Southee and
some of those Belichick Belichickian fans.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Maybe not. But it is at newby knight by always
get that out of the way. It's a newby Night,
all right for Newby Night. Yeah, it's a Newby Night,
So that means all new callers. We'll see what happens here.
The regulars have the night off. That means no hollering.
James Felexis h Tony in the Bay will not be
able to curse on the air, and angry Bill and
(02:48):
his woke Caitlin Clark there they can hang out together,
but they will not be selling our airwaves, so we'll
have new callers. Very exciting. So our lead this hour, though,
is from the Hill. That would be Chapel Hill. That
is where the football world bizarro world turned upside down.
The annascement coming down on Wednesday. Assume you've heard by
(03:09):
now and what's been talking about this? North Carolina. North
Carolina has agreed to a five year contract with Bill
Belichick to be the new head coach. It's still pending
supposed approval, but that's just a mere formality at this point.
Bill Belichick, seventy two, gets a five year contract. God
(03:33):
bless him. He's worked in the NFL since nineteen seventy five.
Holy c that's a long time ago. And now he
took the year off there after the Patriots gave him
the boot. We know what happened there after the twenty
twenty three season. This will be his first college job,
first college job at age seventy two. This has reality
(03:54):
TV show, this has a movie, the whole thing, and
Belichick made sure to make it seem like this was
a natural connection because his father, Steve Belichick, served as
the assistant for the Tar Hills back in the nineteen fifties,
nineteen fifty three to nineteen fifty five, and Belichick waxed
(04:14):
loquacious about what it was like being around college.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Football and smooched it, you know, the whole thing.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Right prepared statement from Bill Belichick said he always wanted
a coach in college and now he says, I look
forward to building the football program in Chapel Hill. So
let us discuss the question is this What does this
gig do for Bill Belichick? What does this gig do
for the University of North Carolina. So I've got Singing Cowboy,
(04:45):
Hollywood Remake, and Quasimodo, and we will combine all of
these things together and we are going to make the
dagger because Bill Belichick brings the dagger with him to
this job.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
So a we'll start with Belichick.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
So for Bill Belichick, my thoughts, as I was just
cruising in from the north Woods here, my thoughts, it
just it keeps him busy, gets them back in the game, right,
not the game, but a game and not.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
The game that he wanted.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
He'd much rather be an NFL coach, but he took
a sabbatical and was not his choice. He should be
coaching the Atlanta Falcons right now. But Arthur Blank's a dumb,
dumb and hired Rahee Morris who couldn't coach his way
out of a wet paper bag and is proving that
on a weekly basis now in Atlanta.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Bad job by Arthur Blank.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
If he ran Home Deep all the way he ran
the Falcons home, people would have got out of business
years ago. But I digress. So Bill Belichick, after being
rejected by the Falcons, has settled in to the life
of playing grab ass with Pat McAfee and Peyton Manning
and his buddy who follows him around and make sure
(05:54):
that he has his.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Shoulders rubbed, Jim Gray. But those days are ending. Well.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
The Jim Gray older rubs will continue, but the other
stuff's over and now he can say, Hey, my name
is Bill Belichick, and I am the singing cowboy like
Gene Autry back in the day, Back in the saddle again,
although this is not a saddle he's ever sat on
in terms of college football. But here we are now
(06:22):
for North Carolina. What does Bill Belichick do for North Carolina? Well,
it gives them a seat at the grown ups table.
It does no one spends more than a split second
thinking about North Carolina and college football. They don't.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
It just doesn't exist.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
It's a basketball school, It's been a basketball school, it
will continue to be a basketball school, but a program
that has been in a medically induced coma for forty
plus years. And now here they are. Hey, wait, all
of a sudden, they got clout all of a sudden,
dopes like me and other blowhards and know it all's
in the media suddenly talking about North Carolina and football.
(07:03):
All right now, Page two, Where is your Benny Oh
belief O meter? Your Benny belief Oh meter on Bill
Belichick's succeeding with Ttario. So we're gonna pull out the
Benny belief O meter for Bill Belichick. So on the
Maler Benny belief O meter one to ten, with ten
(07:25):
being Garon Tate garn teit. So I'm gonna seven, and
I believe that's high. I believe that's high. Seven is
pretty high on the Benny belief O meter.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
And here's why.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Now I'm gonna preface this by saying I'm gonna couch
this by saying Bill Belichick is not winning a national
championship at North Carolina. That ain't happening.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
However, you have to judge this.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
My belief in Belichick is that the mission is not
to win a national championship. The can Tankeers coach late
of the Patriots. Here, this is a Hollywood remake of
the coach Prime experience. He said, well, well, Bill Belichick
and Dion Sanders are nothing like. What are you talking about?
(08:12):
You dumb dumb? Let me explain. Let me make my
elevator pitch. Why even though they are polar opposites. Right,
You've got the loquacious Dion Sanders, the debonair Dion Sanders,
and the grumpy Bill Belichick. But yet the endgame will
be the same. Dion Sanders has gotten a lot of attention.
We've talked about him more than a lot of other
(08:34):
college football. We don't talk a much college football in
the show. We talked a lot about Dion Sanders. He's
thirteen and eleven as head coach at Colorado, two games
over five hundred and I expect similar results from Bill Belichick.
But yet it will be successful. Now, he said, why
will it be successful? Here's why. My belief in Belichick
(08:55):
is that the Tar Hills will become a total clearinghouse
of NFL guys, a feeder program, like Belichick envisions a
stepping stone to the NFL, and much like Coach Prime.
Coach Prime has multiple first round picks on his roster
right now Colorado, and they're not winning as much as
other schools. Bill Belichick at North Carolina has already he's
(09:19):
already starting to hire his old buddies. I know this
chatter is he's gonna hire his kid is the coach
in waiting and he's got I'm sure he'll call Matt
Patricia and Josh McDaniels and Joe Judge and those goods. Hey,
how would you like to get the band back together
here in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. So the Sun's line
up and all that. But for Bill Belichick, he's gonna
(09:42):
get a chance to redefine himself.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Although it's how long he's going to be there.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
But North Carolina, from what we understand, has lined up
the oligarchs. They are lining up the people with the
deep pockets there, and they will pay the nil money
to get the players, because it's pay to play in
college football. You pay players. And as we have seen,
as the old guard that loved their history. You're like
(10:12):
Alabama or Ohio State or Notre Dame or sc you'll
go to a place like North Carolina if the c
check's big enough. And that's the way this thing's going
to operate, like the top line players. Now, do we
think that Bill Belichick is going to go out and
hit the recruiting trail. He'll have other people do most
(10:32):
of the work and it'll be like a Nick Saban model,
where as we understand, like Nick Saban the last few
years at Alabama when he was there, he was the closer,
like he'd fly in on the helicopter at the very
end to get the deal done, but it was other
people that did the dirty work. And Belichick's never going
to be mister Sunshine. That's not gonna happen. And he's
not gonna charm anyone, although as we have said for
(10:55):
some time, he does have something. Belichick is in his seventies,
his girlfriend is in her twenties, he's twenty four, so
clearly he's got some game somehow. But he'll get recruits
because they'll buy them at North Carolina, and we'll see
him on the sidelines wearing a disheveled North Carolina powder
(11:18):
blue hoodie and he'll be roaming around grumbling, spitting and
all that.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
All right, So the last.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Word on this Belichick story, does this move to the
Atlantic Coast conference by Bill Belichick close the door to
his NFL coaching return a five year deal pending approval
by the Board of Trustees that'll come down later on Thursday.
(11:47):
But does this close the door to Bill Belichick going
back to the NFL?
Speaker 1 (11:51):
And I'm gonna go No.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
It obviously moves closer to that. It's like the doomsday clock.
It moves closer, tic tic tic tic tick a little
bit closer, and it's.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Kind of clearer to us.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I don't know about you, that Belichick felt left off,
left off the NFL radar, that even though he was
doing all these TV shows and radio shows or podcasts
or whatever, Belichick tossed this possibility out. He leaked this
through his useful idiots of the media as a as
a vehicle to get an NFL team interested. And he
(12:28):
felt unwanted by the NFL and treated like Quasi Moto,
the hunchback of Chapel Hill, Bill Belichick, and so he
he leaked in the North Carolina if somebody around him
leaked at thinking that the fish would bite, that some
NFL aristocrat owner would come out and say, that's that's
(12:49):
why I want. I want Bill Belichick to be my coach.
And they didn't take the bait. Nobody took the bait,
and so here we are, and so for now, Bill
Belichick goes to the guitarist. Now the ultimate chess move,
not checkers chess, would be Bill Belichick in mid januaries,
and I've had a change in plans. I've decided I
(13:11):
don't want to coach at North Carolina. I'm gonna let
my son coach. I'm gonna take the head coaching job
for the Giants. Because just because he took this job
does not mean that there's all there's not a whole
bunch of loopholes. He can get out of the contract
and depends how it's all written. But Bill Belichick, six
time champion with the Patriots, can say hey, a month
or two months from now, most likely a month because
(13:33):
of the way the coaching hiring process works in the
NFL's eh, you know, something open up. But I decided
I wanted to do that instead. And it's not you,
it's me, And that whole thing it is the Ben
Malay Show.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
So it's a newbie night.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Now, what that means is the regulars that are on
the Wink Wink payroll Wink Wink are not going to
be calling in, although Jack and Leslie are grandfathered in
and grandmothered in the last part of the show. But
for the rest of the show, it's all you, all,
you nubies. You never know, maybe no one will call,
who knows, but you can call right now. You don't
(14:07):
have to worry about other people stealing your thunder and
you get on the air eight seven, seven ninety nine
on Fox eight seven seven nine nine six six three
six nine. If you'd like to be part on a
Newbie Night. So if you're a regular, Now what makes
a regular on a talk show? If we know who
(14:27):
you are and we recognize your voice and you call
so much, we know your history, we know about you,
we know what you do. We know Jed who fled
walks around the swamp lands of Florida doing illegal drugs
in the middle of the night. We know that Tony
in the Bay Area calls up and curses. You know,
Angry Bill worships his Caitlin Clark woke Bobb Ahead and
(14:48):
all that stuff. So if you're we know that about you,
like Holler and James, thirty six pills in the morning,
thirty six pills at night.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
We're familiar with your work, so no need to call.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
But if we're not familiar with you can call it
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox as eight seven
seven nine nine six six three sixty nine. So you've
heard of Carolina Blue, how about Carolina Green?
Speaker 1 (15:11):
What about that? We'll get to that and we will
do it.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Next.
Speaker 4 (15:19):

super fucking call the most blovy eighteen. It is I
(15:58):
Bill Miller on a newbie night on the Ben Malor Show,
so only new callers. All the regulars have the night off.
You can interact with the show on X Say hello
to Ben. He might right back, he probably won't. At
Ben Mallor a Bronco fan for Kooperloop and MSR Tech
(16:24):
Queen if you want to say Ida Arena their comments
may be used against you on the live air.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
On the live air, that may may happen.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
And now back to the newby night.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
It's all new callers, all the time.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Amazing, unless it's not.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Fred and Nebraska, right, Sin says Bill Belichick sucked three
of his last four years in New England and it
was only average the one year he had a winning
record Without Brady, he will be as successful as Joe
Gibbs was when he went back to coach the pros,
and as successful as when Steve Spurrier was as well.
Both sucked. Fred also says, you said no offspring of
(17:10):
an NFL owner ever did well when they inherited a team.
Clark Hunt would like to speak with you, he says.
The Chiefs, Yeah, I know, one of about twelve did well,
he says, and he's got a lot to say here
for The only problem with that, Fred, is, if I'm
not mistaken, didn't the Chiefs Back in the beginning of
the year they graded the NFL Players Association graded the
(17:33):
way the team treats the players, and the Chiefs got
an F minus grade. If I'm not mistaken, their facilities
are terrible because Clark Hunt did not invest enough in
the facilities there that they were graded dismally. So I
don't know how much you want to. I mean the
fact that they hired Andy Reid. Okay, fine, he hired
(17:53):
a good coach, and Andy Reid found paydirt with Patrick Mahomes.
But in terms of actual running the franchise, the facilities
are terrible. According to players. It's I'm not the one
saying that that's Clark Hunt, that's the business he's running.
That there's probably cockroaches all over that place. It's not
taking care of it. Dread and Pie writes and says,
(18:14):
it seems that the North Carolina job is more for
his son Belichick than for him. Also, does Bill's girlfriend
get to go to college for free? Good question? Well,
Bill's working at the university. She can go back in
her master's or something. Don't if he's done with school
or not. She can coach the cheerleading squad. And there
he goes, says, and how does the coach dating a
(18:36):
student work? Well, we'll have to check. Well check spox
Weed rites in from the Oregon Trail. He says, excellent
analysis on the opening monologue. Band he can pull Belichick
a chip Kelly anytime he wants to, but he will
be more successful. It may take a season to do it,
but in the meantime he can pull a couple of
rabbits out of the North Carolina hat and get the
(18:59):
NFL begging him. Well, this ain't your daddy's college football,
as we know, and so if you just buy players,
you can get a stacked roster right away, right away.
Random Ryan who's in Carolina says, we are still reporting
live from the trenches in Fayetteville, North Carolina, on day
whatever of Lebron's social media watch. No recent posts, but
(19:23):
I think I saw Belichick at a waffle house off
I ninety five sources can't confirm or deny. Yeah, well,
I've been to a few waffle houses in North Carolina.
Small town waffle.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Houses love waffles.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Yeah, you've been. You've been to the waffle house. You
enjoyed the little southern waffle You were normal.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
No, I didn't need a waffle when I was there,
Why not? But I like waffles.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
That's the la bougie rot. You know, the celebrities go
hang out there and all that. That's not the same.
Now you got to go to like some small town
in the South where it's the only rest in the
whole town. And there's two people there. They hate their life,
and there's one behind the counter cooking, the other ones
serving the food and with the grease is coming out
(20:09):
of there, or they just hate everything, but they're very
polite to you. They're very polite to you. The food's amazing,
and then you move on your your merry way.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Yully.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
You know, I've spent some time here at the Rosco's
in LA which is good, but it's just not the
same vibe, not the not the same vibe. But all
King Roy writes and says, I know you are a
betting man. If I wanted to place one unit on
North Carolina to win the ACC championship game, should they
place a bet now or hold off until after NFL
coaching jobs are filled. Yeah, I'd hold off on that.
(20:39):
And Belichick's not gonna win the ACC. That's not happening. However,
he's gonna get two or three players at least that
are gonna have NFL scouts licking their chops, because you know,
Belichick's very methodical, and he'll take counsel with Nick Sabin
and all his buddies that he worked with Sabin and
Cleveland back in the day and all these other guys
(21:00):
that he knows around college football, and so they'll make
it happ But is at Newby Knight all new callers
all the time. Let's go to the phones and we'll
say hello to Troy who's in Minnesota on a newby Night. Hello, Troy, Welcome.
There is second right there. It sounded like kind of
like a duck a little bit at the beginning there,
a little bit like a duck.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Yeah, I'm here at Minnesota. Just uh wonderneath what do
you think about the Biking?
Speaker 1 (21:27):
What I think about that?
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I think the Vikings have a fine regular season team
that is not going to make much noise in the playoffs.
That's what I think, cause I don't trust Sam Donald.
I don't care how many touchdown passes he throws. And
the Vikings don't trust Sam Donald. Otherwise they'd be doing
everything they can to sign him to an extension. But
to our knowledge, they're not doing that. So that tells
you they don't believe in him either.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
That is true. I don't really believe in them either.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
But yeah, but it's fun all the last and the
other thing about the NFL, which is kind of cool.
We've seen Nick Foles, who's not that good, going an
amazing playoff run. If you're old enough, Joe flat go, Like,
weird crap happens in the playoffs where guys that aren't
that good play above their means.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
So it is conceivable, Uh yeah, there you go.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Well for for a little bit, Yeah, for a little bit, sure,
But I'm talking about going all the way and winning
the Super Bowl that Joe Flacco and Sam Darno would
be like Joe Flacko because he's he's a free agent
at the end of the year. So if the Vikings
going to run to the super Bowl and upset the
Vikings and the and the the Vikings upset the Eagles
rather in the Lions, man, that would be huge for
him financially.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
Yeah, like that's the only way we resigned samos.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
If we win the super Bowl, I feel like, well,
even getting in the super Bowl, but I like, I
like Brian Flores the defensive coordinator.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
You know, he knows what he's doing and all that.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
As a defensive coordinator, but I just don't I don't
trust them in the moment in the playoffs. But anyway,
thank you, Troy, be safe, all right, Troy driving around
Sallo do I said?
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Duck? But here's big duck energy calling from Oregon. Quack
quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Is that a al duck? What kind of duck are
we talking about? Just a one giant duck?
Speaker 1 (23:08):
It's a newbie night.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Now are you offended that commercial where the guy goes
to the tailgate and he brings a duck?
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Does that offend you when you see that commercial?
Speaker 3 (23:16):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (23:16):
I think it's fabulous.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
You enjoy that because it's promoting Oregon's promoting the ducks,
and so that's good.
Speaker 5 (23:23):
It seems like it's all good with me. How are
you doing tonight? Bill?
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Well, it's actually been Bill does the the the ins
and outs. And Lorraine is from Oregon, but she's a
beaver fan. She's not a duck, right, are you a beaver?
Is that correculary or a beaver? They've been like cast
out right.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Yeah, you're not you're you're not cool states. You have
to be Oregon duck. Now you do well, the Oregon,
Oregon State's still there.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
They just don't you know, they don't play any important team.
Speaker 5 (23:49):
We just don't count really.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Yeah, they've been they've been canceled. Yeah they can't.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
Well, I think they played. I think they're going to
play the high school team up the road next week.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Well that'd be fun. Is that on til television? Can
we bet on that they might lose?
Speaker 2 (24:02):
Who knows?
Speaker 5 (24:03):
Well, there's an AM radio station out of Portland and
sometimes they have the high school football games on, so
it'll probably be that kind of production quality.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Okay, So I started one of my early jobs in radio.
I did the report for the coach John Kintera in
San Diego, the high school report every Friday. Very exciting. Yeah,
it was excited.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Go, well, got me here to overnight radio. So I
guess it didn't go.
Speaker 5 (24:27):
Well yeah, well I don't know. I think it went
pretty well.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
That's conceivable. It's all it's up to you to decide. Yes,
So you called. You didn't call about that though, big
duck energy? No no, no, you called about something else? Right?
You have an agenda here?
Speaker 5 (24:41):
Well, this is just duck and crazy. How Oregon has
to play like a pretty gauntlet to you know, to
get to the prodit?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Well, the Oregon got ducked, is what happened, right. The
committee ducked them, and that's unfortunate.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
It makes for a better story, makes for a better
story if Oregon gets it done in this college football playoff,
and if they go through all of those landmines and
they can navigate that, that makes it even more impressive.
So rather than complain about it, I think you should
embrace it and say, hey, if Oregon's as good as
everyone thinks they are, then what's the deal, what's the problem.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
I wasn't so much complaining about it, It.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Was just kind of son. I sensed the complaint. I
sensed the tone.
Speaker 5 (25:29):
But here's the thing though, I think Texas, so Keyson's
teams are always soft. So I think Texas is like,
I don't do a fraud man. And then Georgia the
quarterbacks that went down. He wasn't really good this year,
and so they're going to be trying to play in
the playoffs with a with a new signal call it.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Yeah, which would be good.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I mean I didn't Alabama and Tua came in at
halftime and led Alabama to a win.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
So yeah, that's something.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
That's true that happens.
Speaker 5 (26:03):
So and then Ohio State when they had to use
like three quarterbacks. Yeah, you know, back in the quite
a while ago, like in one of the dude who
wanted them, I remember he was drafted, but then they
distributed that.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
It was a fraud.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Yeah, well I got you, all right, I got to
we've met our quota for I'm told there's a sign
up here flashing that we we've met our quota for
Oregon Duck talk for the night. So we're we're good.
But thank you big Duck energy. Appreciate that. Let's say
hello to Mark who's in Georgia. It's a newbie Knight,
white women at he's in Georgia. Mark, it's all new callers,
all the time. If you want to be part eight
(26:42):
seven seven ninety nine on Fox. Hello, Mark in Georgia.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
Then how are you, sir? I've been listening to you
for I know at least ten years, probably even longer.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Well, God bless you. Thank you for that.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
And I want to talk about Bill Belichick as someone
who's here in Georgia. I got two parts of that.
One is Bill himself and the second thing is what
he really might mean to the big picture. The first
part of it is we know now that there's Bill
before the girlfriend and Bill after the girlfriend. Now, Bill
(27:20):
before the girlfriend was abrupt short a terrible the guy
to listen to, and ever since he's had the girlfriend,
he is exceptional at laying out on these shows defenses
and technical things and actually is very good at it.
And I really have changed my thought about this guy
(27:43):
because I'm a Miami Dolphins fan. I hated that guy forever,
and I believe he has to make a decision. If
he's going to be in North Carolina, he's got to
be Bill with girlfriends, because that's what those people will embrace,
would agree with that.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
He's not gonna do that. He's gonna go back publicly.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
He will be twisted, he'll be bitter, he'll be sour puss,
he'll be screwed.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
He's gonna go back to that.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
I would be stunned if we don't see Belichick the
way he was with the Patriots publicly like Ebenezer a
screwged right, BA humbug and all that, and you know,
privately with the players when he's coaching the players, he
can be like that where he was on TV and
all that, but a publicly, I just think that's that's
how it's gonna operate, which you do bring up a
(28:33):
problem for Belichick that generally you can't be like that
in college. You have to be a salesman and you
have to be mister positive and all that. But he's
gonna try to do it his way, and he's only
gonna do it for a short time because his kid's
gonna take over and then that's really the one that's
gonna coach long term. But he's gonna go Alpha Charlie
on the media and all that and not answer any questions.
(28:53):
I would be stunned if he does anything different because
that's what he knows and he won a lot with it,
So why would he change that, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
Now, let's look at the But now let's look at
the second part of this. What Belichick may mean to
the ACC. Now, ACC has been drugged a lot lately,
and now we can maybe compare him to what Prime
has done in Colorado. He's going to bring a great
amount of attention to the ACC.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Again, well, he's going to bring it well only to
North Carolina, though like Colorado gets all the is there
any spillover other than Colorado? Colorado was in the Big
twelve now, but they were in the Pac twelve when
he started, and now there is there is there any
spill over.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
I don't think there's any real spillover. It's all about Dion.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
It's five or six degrees of Dion Sanders, and it's
going to be everything about Bill Belichick. Where does he
go for breakfast in the morning? Is he uh, you know?
Does he like grits? You know all that stuff. You know,
all the cliche stories will be out there and all that,
and hey, it'll be fun though, It'll give us something
else to talk about. So I'm happy about it, and
it's it's great. I will point out, though, and I
think it's fair to say here Mark, that Belichick's played
(30:00):
back in the NFL failed. His plan was to go
on TV and kiss up to McAfee and Peyton Manning
and then some own would give him a job, and
he obviously didn't get that. That's why he's going to college.
Otherwise he'd much rather be in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
So oh, absolutely, And I know I'm not actually wondering
if he's a bit bitter about often signing this contract.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Yeah, well we'll find out. I mean, listen, it's you
never tell you to see him on the sidelines. All right,
thanks for listening. All just marked that as a newby
night as mark. He's in Georgia. Hot college football talk
back to back and that's I don't know that's happened
in a long time. Yeah, that's it. It's been a
long time. Gunner in Minnesota says the newby night is
(30:45):
not exciting. Boo Ben booh, Gunner. These calls these newbies
better than you, Gunner.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
All right, he's two two for two, two for two.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
Yeah. Fred in Nebraska follows up. He says, you're killing me,
does it? When? Does anyone care about the facilities when
you are winning? He says, well, just pointing out you
were praising the Chiefs ownership, and according to the NFL players,
they're not taking care of their their end of the bar.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
Yeah, they're winning, but not they're not taking care of
the business.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Supermarket Steve Wright since says Rosco's chicken waffles sucks. Their
chicken is not very flavorful, their waffles are soggy, and
they only give you one side of syrup and you
have to pay extra for syrup. Yeah, anybody charges extra
for sauce? Or syrup.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
I think that's blasphemous. Yeah, I'm charged extra for Sarah.
I've also already told him to log off for the
night with that awful tank.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
No, no, we should make it newby Night on Twitter also,
that's just that's just nah. We haven't gone that extreme yet.
We could have a newby Night on Twitter right now. Well,
you can order it if you want. How much of
what's the write up on that? Eighty ninety percent on
the charge? Yeah? Yeah, No, Rosco's near us?
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Right then, what's the closest Rosco's in Hollywood over there?
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Yeah? Good luck? Yeah, good luck. So you're gonna have
to as something to drive over the hill from Hollywood
and then to drop the food off here.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
It ain't happen, I mean for the hill the phenomenal.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Fee, Yeah, something like that. Yeah, man alive. It is
the Ben Malors Show. So you've heard of Carolina Blue?
How about Carolina Green? So Bill Belichick he gets a
deal three years, the initial part of.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
It, the first three years.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
It's supposed to a five year deal, but the first
three or thirty million dollars, so like ten million dollars
a year for the first three I don't know what
happens after that. The North Carolina budget, the nil budget.
They're going to be paying players twenty million dollars the
nil budget, so he'll have a twenty million dollar payroll
(32:55):
to play with.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
And the old coach.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
Maco who they got rid of, Mac Brown who's a
year older than Belichick, and a couple of key North
Carolina players from last year had entered the portal. And
now we are told that at least one prominent player,
if not more than one prominent player who was on
North Carolina team last year, has decided to hit the
pause button on entering the transfer portal because of Bill Belichick,
(33:23):
but moreover because of the nil budget. Show me the money,
