When the general assembly decided to build a state university here 235 years ago, they named the town for a church built by the British.
The little chapel on the hill was actually called New Hope.

A New Hope was also the episode title of the first Star Wars movie.
If uncc beats unc next week, bill will get tossed
He was trying to put a team together based on a whole bunch of guys they took in the portal. Its tough to have any kind of cohesion when you have so many transfers. I don’t think this really reflects on Belichek. The cupboard was bare in Chapel Hill.
The ACC is a dead conference. Everybody (Miami, FSU, Clemson) wants to leave. As my dad said, couldn’t happen to a better conference!
It gives him the easiest schedule of a Power 4 (or 2) conference...but if UNC doesn’t even make a Bowl Game he probably is gone.
Without Tom Brady, Belichick is not that great of a coach.
As a loather of all things Chapel Hill starting with that left wing dick head Dean Smith and aw shucks left winger Roy Williams and the whole effing town I enjoyed every minute of that a$$ whipping last night. That being said Bill has his work cut out for him. But as another poster said Belicheat is not good without Brady. Bottom line. SUCK IT TARHOLES. 😂😎
Mack Brown is a very good coach, yet he was only able to get 6 wins for North Carolina last year.
Bill is going to have a tough time turning that program into a playoff contender. Perhaps he should appoint his 24 year old girlfriend as offensive coordinator, since she no doubt coordinates their relationship.
That sir is hilarious. 😂
I don’t think you can condemn a team on one game.
The late Bill Walsh left the 49ers and went back to Stanford hiring a few of his ex players to become assistant coaches. Didn’t work out.
Wait- what? You think they’re going to fire Belichick after one season if he doesn’t make a bowl game?? If that’s the thought its probably one of the most asinine posts i’ve read....
Oh for God’s sake, in order to read about his debut in a football game, I have to read about the town’s history starting 235 years ago!
I think there is a good chance Belichick leaves UNC after this season on his own direction, not because he was fired, IMO he’s not a college coach, you can be a curmudgeon in the NFL so long as you win, in college, high school kids and boosters have to be schmoozed and from the outside that is not an asset that Belichick has.
If he were to get fired, it would be a combination of a terrible team and the embarrassment of his 20-something fiancé,
Bill has been too distracted by the goldigger. His heart isn’t in it anymore. Should hang up the cleats.
I was in high school/college when Dean Smith, Valvano, Coach K and Lefty Drisell were coaches in the ACC. What a time to be a basketball fan!!!!! ❤️

Precisely! That’s just like tons of people are shredding Arch Manning’s performance as starting QB in the Longhorns loss to Ohio. It was his first game for crying out loud.
Which is funny, since BB has all the appeal of Emperor Palpatine.
The point of BB hire was to make UNC football relevant and jump start an invitation into BG12 or SEC. Relevant no, but with the move to 9 conference games next year, invitations will be going out soon. Miss St and Vanderbilt make some room.
