UNC previously set a goal of announcing their new head football coach on Sunday before the transfer portal opened today. There has been no shortage of rumored negotiations, but Sunday came and went without any resolution.
Jon Sumrall was thought to be one of the school’s main targets, but he announced that he intends to stay at Tulane instead of pursuing any open jobs. With one candidate down, far and away the most smoke seems to be around Bill Belichick, for better or worse. It was reported on Friday that part of Belichick’s demands involved naming his son Carolina’s head coach in waiting for whenever Belichick decides to retire or has an NFL team come knocking.
