Update: Belichick has agreed to become the next UNC coach. Belichick handed the school a 400 page “organizational bible” with structure, payment plans, staffing choices etc. decisions on whether to commit with UNC. He is expected to know their decision within 24 hours

Ex-Patriots coach Bill Belichick and North Carolina have worked through financial terms the last 24 hours, in hopes a deal gets done today, sources tell me and
@ByPatForde. An emergency board of trustees meeting would be needed to approve it.Talks are ongoing. No meeting yet.

Source tells me UNC will increase NIL package for football from $4 million to $20 million in effort to land Belichick

No one should question Bill's ability to recruit young college talent. Dude will be successful at UNC.

Don't see this going well for Bill.

Unless Tom Brady pulls a Rodney Dangerfield and can find some extra eligibility to follow Bill to UNC, it won't go well.

The talking heads on ESPN radio and several former NFL players love the move. Bill wants to make UNC an NFL-player factory.

He should have success. Mack Brown did well there and I would say Mack is massively inferior from a tactical standpoint, but Mack was very personable which made him a great recruiter.

UNC is a great school and that is a great area to live and attend college. I would have imagined that he could have landed a better job at a stronger program.

Supposedly it's widely assumed either Arch Manning or Quinn Ewers will be their QB next year.

FWIW: Bill Belichick would have been interested in the Cowboys' job, and it's believed that Dallas would have been interested in him, had he known the position would become available. Belichick and his camp never received any indication during backchannel conversations that the job would open up, which is partly why he ended up at UNC. Belichick has an excellent relationship with the Jones family.
