Patriots’ Mike Vrabel drops savage Urban Meyer take on Belichick’s debut

The North Carolina Tar Heels kicked off the Bill Belichick era with the worst possible start. In his highly anticipated college debut, the legendary coach’s team fell apart in a 48-14 blowout loss to TCU; the most points ever surrendered by a Belichick-coached squad at any level. For fans who packed Kenan Stadium to see how the eight-time Super Bowl champion would translate to the college sidelines, it was a sobering reminder that the transition isn’t easy.

On WEEI’s The Greg Hill Show, New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel was asked whether Belichick simply needs more time to get his UNC program rolling.
