00:00News travels fast around the world, especially when you're dealing with Bill Belichick,

00:04one of the single best coaches in the history of professional sports. Doesn't matter what sport,

00:08he's won multiple championships here, had a grasp on that New England-like pulse for decades,

00:14it felt like, and now probably was looking for a job in the NFL, but maybe switches over to

00:20college football, Dubsy? Way to tweet yesterday here from Olly Connolly. Update, Belichick has

00:25agreed to become the next UNC coach, handed the school a 400-page organizational bible with

00:32structure, payment plans, staffing choices, decisions on whether to commit with North

00:36Carolina. He is expected to know the decision within 24 hours. Before we get into it here,

00:42Dubs, did it shock you as much as me that Bill Belichick interviewed, forget about that,

00:47interviewed with North Carolina in college football? It did at first, Donnie, and I sat

00:54back and I'm thinking, could this actually be a go? Is this a legitimate sort of newsworthy

01:00item that Bill Belichick could actually be getting set to sign off and become the head

01:03coach of North Carolina? And the more I think about it, Donnie, I don't know, I feel like

01:08it's good timing. We're approaching the back end of the NFL season. For someone who's achieved so

01:12much in the National Football League, would he really want to go back to the college ranks and

01:17try and turn this ship around? What would be the end goal? What would be the carrot for Bill

01:22Belichick? We've heard reports that it's all about getting the son a gig, you know, once he's

01:27tenure, will it come to an end? I don't buy into that. I think that's a bit of smoke. So at first

01:32glance, Donnie, I think this may be a bit of a ploy for Bill to get himself back in the headlines

01:38here in search of getting back into the NFL for next season. But tell you what, some reports in

01:43social media absolutely ablaze with saying that it's very likely that it could happen.
