North Carolina football head coach Bill Belichick is set to hire Bobby Petrino as the new offensive coordinator

Bill Belichick recently concluded his first season as the head coach of the North Carolina Tar Heels. Belichick made the move to college football after a legendary NFL career, most notably as the head coach of the New England Patriots during the Tom Brady era.

Belichick, the former New England Patriots head coach, is hoping Petrino can help turn around the UNC offense that finished last season as one of the worst units statistically in the country, averaging 288.8 yards per game, ranking 131st out of 136 teams in total offense. The Tar Heels also finished 121st in scoring offense (19.3 points per game).

Bill Belichick replaced North Carolina's fired offensive coordinator with a former SEC coach and longtime offensive guru.

North Carolina coach Bill Belichick is expected to bring Bobby Petrino to the Tar Heels as his new offensive coordinator, CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz reports. Petrino handled play-calling duties at Arkansas the past two seasons under Sam Pittman and assumed interim coach status near midseason when Pittman was fired.

Bill Belichick’s first year in Chapel Hill was not a success, to say the least.

North Carolina is hiring Bobby Petrino as its offensive coordinator for Bill Belichick's staff, according to On3's Chris Low, Pete Nakos and Inside Carolina.

Tomlin matched Bill Belichick’s streak, who had 19 consecutive non-losing seasons from 2001-2019 when he coached the New England Patriots. Both Tomlin and Belichick are behind Hall of Famer Tom Landry, who went 21 seasons without a losing record from 1965-1985.

North Carolina Tar Heels head coach Bill Belichick has a new nickname. The 73-year-old head coach has been dating 24-year-old cheerleader Jordon Hudson for multiple years. The couple first met on a flight.
