Former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, 72, has agreed to a five-year, $50 million deal to become the new head football coach at the University of North Carolina (UNC). Belichick, who led the Patriots to six Super Bowl titles over 24 seasons, expressed excitement about returning to college football, a world he cherished growing up with his father. "I have always wanted to coach in college and now I look forward to building the football program in Chapel Hill," Belichick said. UNC officials announced the hiring, aiming to revitalize their football program and create a "pipeline to the NFL." Belichick will attempt to join the ranks of coaches like Jimmy Johnson, Barry Switzer, and Pete Carroll, who have won both a Super Bowl and a college national championship.
