Bill Belichick could leave North Carolina before 2026 season ends, prediction says originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Bill Belichick's highly scrutinized experiment at North Carolina could be approaching an abrupt conclusion.
Bleacher Report's Adam Kramer predicted Belichick will no longer be the Tar Heels' head coach by New Year's Day in his eight hot takes for the 2026 college football season.
That would bring Belichick's college coaching tenure to an end after only two seasons. The six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach arrived in Chapel Hill as one of the most fascinating hires in college football history. North Carolina was getting an NFL legend who could sell recruits on professional development and potentially construct the college version of an NFL organization.
The results have failed to match the attention. North Carolina won only four games during Belichick's debut season. The Tar Heels now enter 2026 with modest expectations and significant uncertainty inside the program.
