UNC Football: How seriously should we take the Bill Belichick rumors?

I never thought that I would ever type these words, but it has been reported that UNC has been meeting with six-time Super Bowl champion and former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick. When the news initially broke earlier this week, it felt more like something Belichick may have decided to do out of sheer boredom rather than any kind of seriousness. That is, of course, until what was reported earlier today.

Jonathan Jones with CBS Sports reported that Belichick met with the school for a second time yesterday. If this wasn’t enough, Ollie Connolly with The Guardian tweeted a thread about the situation on the artist formally known as Twitter, and well…all of the rumors about this being some kind of a PR stunt were seemingly debunked.
