North Carolina, Bill Belichick Receive Disappointing Recruiting News
North Carolina, Bill Belichick Receive Disappointing Recruiting News originally appeared on Athlon Sports. First-year North Carolina head coach Bill Belichick is attempting to adjust to college football recruiting after a historic NFL career. Advertisement It's, perhaps, the biggest challenge for Belichick in his first ever coaching role in the collegiate ranks. The 2026 class will be Belichick's first full recruiting cycle after taking over for College Football Hall of Famer Mack Brown in January. UNC finished 38th nationally with 30 signees in Brown's final class of 2025. Belichick and general manager Michael Lombardi have made an early splash in the 2026 cycle, holding 15 commits and the nation's No. 16 class. However, the recruiting trail can be a chaotic space, and the Tar Heels received some disappointing news over the weekend. North Carolina Tar Heels new head coach Bill BelichickJim Dedmon-Imagn Images Four-star wide receiver O'Mari Johnson, who committed to UNC on April 6, has reportedly backed off his pledge and re-opened his recruitment, according to On3's Chad Simmons. Advertisement Johnson (6-foot, 183 pounds) plays for Jackson Academy in Wesson, Mississippi. He ranks as the No. 26 wide receiver and the No. 14 player in the state (Rivals). Johnson has amassed 129 catches for over 2,000 yards with 28 receiving touchdowns dating back to his eighth grade year. The talented athlete also has 896 rushing yards and 17 touchdowns at tailback, per MaxPreps. The Tar Heels initially earned Johnson's commitment after he took an official visit to Chapel Hill on April 4. The silver lining for Belichick and Co. is UNC is expected to remain a top contender, according to the report. Johnson has official visits scheduled to Tulane (June 12) and Mississippi State (June 20).

'I'm not going anywhere': Despite Musk exit, protests continue at Tesla dealership
A crowd of roughly 150 people protested for an 18th consecutive weekend outside Tesla's Golden Valley, Minnesota, car dealership Saturday. Across the street, a group of about 20 supporters of President Donald Trump and Elon Musk also held signs — playing music and standing in support of Musk. Musk, who announced his departure from the Trump administration this week, is set to return his focus to business holdings. Both groups Saturday say they're not convinced his work with the federal government is over. "I don't believe that for one second," said Bill Henson of Minneapolis, who says he's been at nearly every Saturday protest outside of Tesla's dealership since February. "In fact, Trump made a statement contradicting Elon and saying he's still going to be in the administration, he's still giving guidance — he's still going to be involved." Despite the juxtaposition of the two groups, both sides remained peaceful — at times crossing the street to talk or debate with one another. "I'm just here to support Elon, support President Trump, and support our country," said Becky Gee, a pro-Trump demonstrator. "We can co-exist. You can stand next to us and you can say, well I don't like this that they did in the government this week. And we can say — well, we don't like this part of it, but here's the bigger picture." Anti-Musk protestors say they're committed to staying put each Saturday for the time being. "This is a long game. This is not something where, oh, Elon steps away, it doesn't matter," Henson said. "I'm here for the long haul. I'm not going anywhere."

Pascal Siakam's Awkward Interaction With Indiana Reporter Goes Viral
Pascal Siakam's Awkward Interaction With Indiana Reporter Goes Viral originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Indiana Pacers lost in Game 5 to the New York Knicks, falling 111-94. Bennedict Mathurin led the Pacers with 23 points off the bench, although after the game, Indiana made it clear that they simply did not put forth the effort needed to win. Advertisement "We obviously didn't play with the level of force that we needed to," said head coach Rich Carlisle. "We're gonna have to play much better." His players agreed and made it clear to both the media and fans that they would play stronger in Game 6 on Saturday, although one reporter was not satisfied with that answer. Gregg Doyel of the Indianapolis Star, who has been banned from Indiana Fever games after an uncomfortable interaction with Caitlin Clark last season, was back to his usual shenanigans. 'How is it possible to not play hard enough in Game 5?" he asked Pascal Siakam. 'What are you talking about?" countered the veteran forward. "They played harder than us. It's okay. We played hard. They played harder. What's your point? I don't get it.' Advertisement Siakam, understandably, was already frustrated with the loss, and Doyel's line of questioning didn't help, although the reporter kept pushing the issue. 'You good?" Siakam interrupted. "You good, bro? You're looking for something I know, but damn." A video of the exchange has amassed over six million views on social media, with the vast majority of fans commenting to defend Siakam or lambast Doyel. "Is the pressure getting to Siakam or is this just bad reporting?" asked FanSided's social media account. "They're about to ban Gregg Doyle from any Indy sports coverage," posted a fan. "He already had Caitlin uncomfortable last season, and they barred him from covering her. Now look." Advertisement Doyel's line of questioning was awkward, although he did bring up a decent point. Do the Pacers have what it takes to close out the series? They will have a second chance in front of their home fans on Saturday.
