NFL Teams (like the Raiders) Clamor for Bill Belichick While He Tries to Enjoy College Life at North Carolina

Ah, Bill Belichick. The hoodie-wearing, scowl-mastermind of NFL coaching greatness. The guy who’d probably rather dissect game tape than smile at a press conference. Yet here he is, trying to settle into college life at the University of North Carolina, and—surprise!—NFL teams are already sliding into his metaphorical DMs. Because who needs a honeymoon phase when you’ve got desperate pro teams on speed dial?

Bill Belichick: The College Coach (For Now)

In a move that nobody really saw coming (and that some probably thought was a fever dream), Belichick signed on to coach the University of North Carolina football team. Yes, that UNC—home of basketball royalty and, well, a football program that could use some of that Belichickian magic. His contract? Oh, just a casual $10 million buyout clause if he bolts before June 1, 2025. A small price for the NFL to pay for The Hoodie, right?

NFL Teams: "Hey, Big Head"

Apparently, NFL teams aren’t shy about shooting their shot. Leading the pack of Belichick fans? The Las Vegas Raiders, of course, led by Tom Brady. Yes, that Tom Brady. The man who owes Belichick at least 50% of his GOAT status. Brady thinks a reunion in Sin City sounds like a solid plan. Who wouldn’t want to pair a freshly retired QB-turned-team-owner with his grumpy football soulmate?

Raiders' Coaching Dumpster Fire

The Raiders just canned Antonio Pierce after a stellar 4-13 season. Because why keep a guy around when you can dream big about a six-time Super Bowl champion swooping in to save your franchise? Brady, probably sipping avocado smoothies, is reportedly pitching Belichick like it’s Shark Tank.

Other Teams: "Wait, We Want In Too!"

It’s not just the Raiders thirsting for Belichick. The Jets, Saints, Bears, Jaguars, and Patriots are all casually eyeing him. Yep, even the Patriots—because apparently, the breakup wasn’t that bad. Or maybe they just miss him mumbling through press conferences.

The Big, Awkward Question

Here’s the thing: Why would Belichick ditch UNC before he’s even unpacked his boxes? Sure, the NFL is tempting, but he just committed to rebuilding a college program. Does he want to deal with booster meetings and NCAA rules, or does he miss the sweet chaos of the NFL?

Whether he stays in Chapel Hill or gets dragged back to the NFL, Belichick is clearly still the prom king of coaching. Will he stick with the Tar Heels and dominate the college scene, or will he ride off into the Vegas sunset with Brady? One thing’s for sure—his poker face isn’t giving anything away.
