Coach Belichick's Mystery Lineup

North Carolina, USATue Sep 02 2025

Football fans know that college and NFL games have some key differences. One of those differences is how much info coaches have to share.

In college, coaches can keep things pretty secret if they want to. That's exactly what Bill Belichick did before a big game against TCU.

The Mystery Depth Chart

Belichick put out a depth chart, but it was missing one important thing: names. Just a list of positions with no players attached.

"It's like giving directions without street names. Not very helpful, right?"

Reactions from Fans and Experts

  • Some found it funny.
  • Others thought it was disrespectful.
  • Some even said it was risky, especially with so much betting going on.

But Belichick isn't one to follow the usual rules. He'll do what he wants, as long as he can get away with it.

Media Power and Potential Changes

Now, he might change his mind later. After all, the media has some power too. They can start a big conversation that might make things uncomfortable for Belichick.

"Maybe even force him to make a big change, like his old boss Mack Brown did years ago."

The Game of Power and Control

It's all about power and control in the world of college football. And Belichick knows how to play the game, both on and off the field.
