Bill Belichick has not had a great start as UNC's coach. The Tar Heels have lost three of their opening five games this season, which has put Belichick under some pressure.
Amid North Carolina's jittery start to the 2025 season, Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy has called for Belichick not to continue coaching at the collegiate level.
“I think this experiment will be done," Portnoy said on "Fox Big Noon Kickoff" on Saturday. I want Belichick out of college football. He’s my idol, he won me a ton of Super Bowls, (he’s) not a college guy.”•
The concerning part of Belichick's Tar Heels is that they have lost three games this year by 25 points or more. The heavy margin of defeats for UNC has raised some concerns among fans.
Belichick established himself as one of the best coaches in the NFL. He led the New England Patriots to six Super Bowl wins. Belichick also won two Super Bowls as the defensive coordinator for the New York Giants.
UNC hired Belichick in December 2024. He signed a five-year, $50 million contract to coach the program.
