Tar Heels beat Charlotte 20-3 on rainy afternoon
Scout ban shows decaying of relations with former team
Bill Belichick won six Super Bowls during nearly a quarter of a century coaching the New England Patriots, but it’s clear that relationship has deteriorated since his departure in January of 2024 leading to plenty of animosity and hard feelings.
When asked to address reports that he banned a Patriots scout from attending practices at North Carolina this summer, Belichick said bluntly, “It’s clear I’m not welcomed in their facility, so they aren’t welcomed in ours … Simple as that.”
Belichick’s comments came just minutes after he won his first game as head coach of North Carolina 20-3 over Charlotte on a rain-soaked afternoon in front of a record crowd of 19,233 at Jerry Richardson Stadium.
