249. Prime Cuts: Ian O'Connor on Coach K's UNC L, Gregg Berhalter on USMNT's World Cup; Bob Ryan on Post-Brady Belichick

This is Prime Cuts! The best of The Colin Cowherd Podcast. First it's Colin's top takes of the week (3:00), including why soon to be fired Lakers HC Frank Vogel is the least of the Lakers problems, the glaringly obvious reason why the Bears and Rams are headed in opposite directions, and why Bill Belichick has been willing to let players like JC Jackson walk.

Then, Ian O'Connor -- NY Post columnist and author of Coach K: The Rise and Reign of Mike Krzyzewski and Belichick -- (11:00) reacts to Coach K's post-game reaction to his disappointing Final Four loss to arch rival UNC, and why Tiger's 2019 Masters win was the best event Ian has ever covered in almost four decades.

Then, United States Men's Soccer Coach Gregg Berhalter (24:00) reveals how he got Christian Pulisic to buy in to his vision after the disastrous 2018 qualification failure, if this talented young team can win it all, if he's offended by the English media dismissing the USMNT as a Group B lightweight, and if he's concerned about too much pressure on Pulisic.

Finally, longtime Boston Globe sportswriter Bob Ryan (33:00) weighs in on the Tampa Bay Tom Brady transformation, how Belichick's arrogance has led to the Pats falling off, and if he needs to make the 'Patriot Way' less rigid to get better players.
