Nick Wright joins Colin Cowherd to discuss Bill Belichick’s reputation, the Dallas Mavericks winning the NBA Draft lottery, and where he was wrong about the New York Knicks and Boston Celtics.
It’s a new look in the ACC for college football as Bill Belichick becoming the North Carolina Tar Heels new head coach shakes things up in one of the country’s top conferences.
Dabo Swinney, the longtime Clemson Tigers head coach, described the conference as playing the "New England Patriots," which includes former Patriots coach Bill O’Brien coming on as Boston College’s new leader on the sidelines.
Swinney and Belichick had a joint interview with ESPN’s Rece Davis, where he admitted not being too worried about the accomplished NFL coach joining the college ranks.

"We’re going to lean on him heavy to figure out how to defeat y’all’s punt block team or whatever else," Swinney said of Allen.
After the Tigers take on the Tar Heels, they will have to see O’Brien’s Eagles the following week.
"We play the New England Patriots this year," Swinney said. "We go to North Carolina, and then we go to Boston College to play Bill O’Brien. So, I feel like I’m playing the whole Patriots organization in about a two-week span there."
