Physicality, fun, and freedom mark the Belichick boys' UNC defense
Posted Jun 16, 2025
The Belichick era at UNC is in full swing, but it’s not just about legendary head coach Bill Belichick.

Brian is the Tar Heels’ safeties coach, and Steve coaches linebackers while serving as defensive coordinator.
