Bill Belichick was either dialed into ESPN’s “College GameDay” or he inadvertently made an awkward live television moment on Saturday morning.
The UNC head coach apparently called analyst Kirk Herbstreit’s cell phone during a “GameDay” segment discussing Belichick’s first-year struggles at Chapel Hill.
“Answer that,” fellow “College GameDay” analyst Pat McAfee said as Herbstreit flashed him his phone. “He has to be watching right now. That’s literally Bill Belichick calling Kirk Herbstreit. He probably has something to say.”
“I can’t answer,” Herbstreit replied with an awkward laugh.
The unusual television moment came after what’s been a week full of turmoil and rumors surrounding Belichick’s future at Chapel Hill.
