Is Bill Belichick Ready for the State of North Carolina?

Posted Jan 11, 2025
Bill Belichick used to live in Carrboro. He probably doesn’t remember it, though. Belichick’s father, Steve, was an assistant football coach at the University of North Carolina from 1953 until 1955. At one point, someone snapped a picture of tiny, buzz-cutted Bill sitting in the stands at Kenan Memorial Stadium. He was not wearing a hoodie. (Garden & Gun)
