Gio Lopez, who played for Bill Belichick in his first year as a college coach, has transferred to Wake Forest, saying the UNC experience felt like an escape and he lost enjoyment of football.

Lopez, who started 11 games for UNC in 2025, said the coaching style under Belichick felt like “work” and created a tense atmosphere. He described the environment as “no air” and said he was ridiculed for not following orders exactly. The former quarterback now hopes Wake Forest will give him a fresh, more enjoyable football experience. freshyourfeel.com
