[Vowelguy]

Zowie. I just cannot imagine him going into a recruit's home and begging them to commit.

The six-time Super Bowl-winning coach wants to be back on the sideline in 2025 and has been in discussions with the Tar Heels after they fired Mack Brown.

Not going to happen, he wants to the NFL most wins title, he won't get that at UNC.

I wouldn’t hire him for that job even if he wanted it. I can’t say for sure that he wouldn’t succeed, but I don’t think he would. There’s plenty of jobs for him in pro football. If he really wants to coach again and people don’t want to give him the head job, he can be a defensive coordinator.

 

[LoyalFanCT]

would the Jets be interested in him?

 

[BonaConn]

He's not gonna take it but we do play them in 2026/2027...

 

[LoyalFanCT]

One prediction has us playing UNC this month in a bowl game,. not sure it will happen.

 

[ZooCougar]

I think it's possible that he would take that job particularly if there isn't much interest from the NFL. Kraft kind of poisoned the well last year with the Atlanta affair.

Hiring a guy with GM/Cap/Free Agency experience is a smart play considering the portal.

Does Tom Brady have a son looking to play at UNC?

If he does get the job and doesn’t hire Connor Stalions, what is he even doing?

I don't think anyone in the NFL wants him. They didn't last year. What's changed? The Pats tough D turning average without him? There must be feelers going out right now. What if he's not feeing it?

 

[Bubba1957]

I think his girlfriend might be a student there.

 

[Kolumbo]

Can't imagine what would be worse as a UNC player: actually attending fake classes or trying to stay awake listening to coach reviewing film.

 

[UCTitleTown]

Any program or team that'll hire a soon to be 73 year coach needs their heads examined. I don't care how great his past was. It's even worse for him to take a college job that is a multi-year process.

One positive of being on a college campus, he could meet his next girlfriend.

 

[Austin316]

Clickbait.

I find it very hard to believe he would want to/be willing to deal with recruiting, portal, NIL etc. I mean, would kids even want to play for him? On the other hand, his style of coaching was very much "my way or the highway" wich typically works better in college than the pros. Seems like a weird and unlikely fit, but i guess one never knows.

Bill B. would only fit at 2 schools. Army -Navy. Maybe Air Force.

 

[phillionaire]

the only coach they could hire that's as old as Mack Brown lol

With the portal it’s Free Agency. And one would think UNC has resources. I think NFL types would be more comfortable in this space than ever before.

you realized he coached 20 years in the NFL with 6 championships. Bill will fit anywhere and players will flock to him.

 

[HCCForever]

Paul Finebaum says it would be home run hire for NC. I don’t see it happening.

 

[JohnFSilver]

I’d hire him in a heartbeat. His coaching style is perfect for college and he recognizes talent. Wish giants would fire daboll and bring Bill home however.
