Bill Belichick, a 72-year-old former NFL head coach, has taken the helm as head coach of the North Carolina Tar Heels, leaving many in the football world stunned. This move marks a significant departure from his typical career path, as he has never coached at the collegiate level.
Belichick’s decision was met with skepticism by some of his former players, including linebacker Tedy Bruschi. “I don’t want to see him coaching some bowl game in December or January,” Bruschi said on ESPN’s “Sunday NFL Countdown.” Despite this, many believe Belichick would immediately make any team he joins a contender.
Edelman praises Belichick’s ability to project players and his nostalgic connection to the Tar Heels. “He knows how to project players,” Edelman said. “And he loves anything his dad coached at North Carolina.”
Belichick will replace Mack Brown as head coach, taking over a 6-6 team that has been consistent in bowl games of late.
