Pretty wild Steve Belichick story from Devin McCourty on @greenlight. Said Bill Belichick told Steve just before spring workouts in '15 that he'd be coaching safeties. "(Steve) walks in and goes, 'Yo I'm going to be honest with y'all. I don't know what the F I'm doing right now"
@ZackCoxNESN @greenlight Nothing like a nepotism story to get you all warm and fuzzy.
@ZackCoxNESN @greenlight I guess this really does show what a genius Bill really is because the outcome was amazing. The Patriots won the Superbowl that year!! Besides, he had already served as an assistant coach with the Pats for 4 years!
@ZackCoxNESN @greenlight Plus, Steve was a safety as a player, so he knew the position.
@ZackCoxNESN @greenlight Nonstory. Pats went to 4 of the next 5 Superbowl's.
@randall_rjr @JackieDeshazer @ZackCoxNESN @greenlight Billpologist. Got it
@ZackCoxNESN @greenlight says more about bill than steve and i respect SB for acknowledging he had no idea what he was doing
@ZackCoxNESN @greenlight So Bill has a history of naming coaches who have no idea how to coach their positions. That makes keeping Achord as ST coach more understandable.
@ZackCoxNESN @edsbs @greenlight Weird how he was hired then
