Know this: Bill Belichick as a college head coach at a place already as appealing as UNC would cause a seismic shift in recruiting. Getting to the NFL is the No. 1 goal, or close to the No. 1 goal, for every great college football player. Who better to play for than the GOAT of pro football? Belichick the "recruiter" would get talented, dedicated players at UNC. (Yahoo! Sports)
