Nico Iamaleava predicted to play for Bill Belichick at North Carolina

[miket4god]

Got to have surrounding talent to do that, though.

Worked OK for Drake Maye.

 

[feathersax]

He'll get great coaching from that staff. Suspect he'll flourish under them. Might be just what he needs to make it in the NFL. Nico might get the last laugh after all.

Huh? Never thought of you as a meth user....until now.

 

[etsuvol13]

If only someone told you all this in the Nico missed practice thread like 2 days ago…it’s always been UNC

 

[UTodd01]

Huh? Never thought of you as a meth user....until now.

Dudes been trolling for years. Not sure how he gets a pass.

 

[northknoxvol]

Guess Big Nic will get the ladies to making those white and teal lays......gotta make that money

 

[volfeeva]

Nico will do good in NC if they can talk Sampson into coming to play for one more season.

 

[Vol1976]

I just wanna hear how much of that $4 mil that he wanted is offered by any other program.

I just wanna hear how much of that $4 mil that he wanted is offered by any other program.

There's literally no way he gets that amount, and I highly doubt he ends up with what he was getting here before he started this mess.

 

[rocketskates]

If he goes to the ACC he will have more success, not due to his ability, but because it’s a much weaker conference. I hope that if that happens our fanbase keeps that in mind this fall and doesn’t get frustrated with Heupel for his decision.

 

[rocketskates]

After hearing how Nico threatened to skip a play off game if he wasn't given a raise, why would any school trust him. Even if he does have success, who is to say, his daddy wouldn't threaten to sit him in a late season big game unless the school cuts a bigger check.

Won’t have to worry about that at UNC as his ceiling will be the Liberty Bowl.

Well, early predictions to have them ranked 10th...........in the ACC.

 

[ButchPlz]

Well, early predictions to have them ranked 10th...........in the ACC.

But we were assured that Bill Belichick and his crew will give Nico just the greatest coaching ever.

 

[05_never_again]

Worked OK for Drake Maye.

Maye had Tez Walker to throw to and a great running game with Omarion Hampton.

 

[sonofUT62]

Manny Diaz and a Duke will come for him. I promise you that. So will G Tech. And Louisville. You’re right that it won’t be nearly what he faced here though.

You know Duke already paid someone else?

Look at the bright side.....

He's not gonna have to worry about the playoffs at UNC. Pretty much no shot at the ACC championship game either

Play 12 games, declare, and sit out the bowl

I'm sure that is the plan. The best laid plans tend to go awry though and Nico's dad doesn't seem to be the adapt and overcome type.

End of the day, sorry-just not seeing him at UNC.

Nico and UT were a weird marriage.

Nico and BB would be a show on the Learning Channel.

Believe he was referring to Duke and the others coming to put him on his butt with extreme prejudice.

I’ve had a long day. My bad.

 

[woodpusher]

Who would Nico be laughing at actually? He has zero cause to be bitter at Tennessee.

Plenty of posters say he will be a bust in the NFL. Obviously if he proves them wrong he will have the last laugh. If not he won't.

He who laughs last laughs best.

 

[C-south]

Now watch as all the NFL/ESPN media pr immediately make this punk seem like an innocent and misled lamb. "The GOAT will teach him for real! Heisman szn bruh!"

Brady made Bill. Nico isn’t close to a Brady.

 

[FranklinVFL]

He just wants to play in the ACC so his receivers are wide open most of the time and he won’t get sacked unless they are playing Clemson

Our receivers were wide open as well. Still overthrew them.

 

[MurphyVol]

I bet Bill gets him at a bargain. He's always been crafty at getting guys with baggage cheap...case on point Randy Moss

 

[stolitonic]

I’ve had a long day. My bad.

It's Monday brother, think we all have lol

 

[deezvols]

Never heard of her

 

[dobre_shunka]

Bill has a $1 million buyout in a couple of months so it's possible he bolts to the NFL after 2025. Unless Nico absolutely lights it up in 2025, his draft projection will require another college season and he's likely in the portal again in 2026 if Belichik leaves.

 

[hillsborovol]

I hope some of you know the answers.

How much money per year is UNC offering?

Did Nico pull out of the Spring semester? If so, then he could receive an "F" in every class. I suppose this wouldn't prevent him from entering UNC.

Is breaking his NIL contract with Tennessee something that would allow us to take him to court (probably not)?
