Nebraska's Matt Rhule recalls 'embarrassing' experience with 'savant' Bill Belichick at coaches clinic

Bill Belichick spent multiple decades on NFL sidelines. The Nebraska football program recently decided to tap into Belichick's vast coaching experience and hosted the six-time Super Bowl winner at its coaches clinic.

Belichick and the New England Patriots parted ways earlier this year after spending more than two decades together. The Atlanta Falcons interviewed Belichick following coach Arthur Smith's dismissal, but team owner Arthur Blank said he decided against extending an offer to Belichick. Every other NFL team with an opening during this year's hiring cycle filled their vacancies with other coaches.

It appears Belichick will not coach a professional football team in 2024, but his football acumen is still largely held in high regard. His football IQ appeared to be on full display during the coaching clinic, so much so that Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule was left in awe.

Rhule said he was humbled as Belichick conducted a full-blown football masterclass during the two-day clinic.

"He is so smart, has seen so much that he can make the complex so simple that it humbles you and embarrass you," Rhule told reporters.

"I was embarrassed sitting next to him at how smart he is, how simple it was. He went four and a half hours just with the coaches. Forget the clinic.
