The best way to spend your Saturday is to watch highlights of Jadeveon Clowney in high school. It's like something from National Geographic.
Per sources, I’m told Bill Belichick’s negotiations with North Carolina include a guarantee that Stephen Belichick will be named the school’s head coach in waiting. UNC is open to that guarantee. Discussions are not a bid to gain leverage for NFL offers and BB is open to the move

Bill Belichick with a fascinating answer on how he would run a college football program (via @PatMcAfeeShow): "Let me put this in capital letters: IF I was in a college program, the college program would be a pipeline to the NFL for the players that had the ability to play in the NFL. It would be a professional program. Training, nutrition, scheme, coaching, techniques that would transfer to the NFL. It would be an NFL program at a college level and an education that would get the players ready for their career after football... It would be geared toward developing the player. Time management, discipline structure and all that, that would be life skills regardless of whether they were in the NFL or somewhere in business. I feel very confident that I have the contacts in the National Football League to pave the way for those players that would have the ability to compete in the [NFL]... they would be ready for it. I have no doubt about that."
