Legendary NFL coach Bill Belichick is officially entering the college football world after being hired as the newest North Carolina football coach earlier. The six-time Super Bowl champion is second only to Don Shula in NFL regular-season wins, but he told reporters he always wanted to coach in college. Belichick is replacing Mack Brown, who was fired after a 6-6 season despite being the winningest coach in school history. Brown finished with a 113-79-1 record overall and a 44-33 record in his second stint with the Tar Heels.
Belichick has already announced Michael Lombardi, a former NFL executive, as the general manager of the North Carolina football team.
