REPORT: Bill Belichick Makes Final Decision On North Carolina Head Coaching Position
New England Patriots legendary head coach Bill Belichick has been out of the job since the beginning of the year, when he and the Pats decided to part ways.

The Guardian’s Ollie Connolly was the first to report that the six-time Super Bowl champion will be taking his talents to the sidelines of the Tar Heels to succeed Mack Brown after he was fired.
Connolly added that Bill Belichick handed the school a 400-page “organizational bible” with structure, payment plans, staffing choices, and other information.
He is expected to know the school’s decision “within 24 hours.”
