Before hiring Bill Belichick to become the new head coach, North Carolina fired Mack Brown. And Brown recently had some things to say about whether Belichick will fare better than Brown did in Chapel Hill.

There's no shortage of opinions about North Carolina head coach Bill Belichick and his girlfriend Jordon Hudson. But what does Belichick's boss, the UNC-Chapel Hill Chancellor, think of the publicity the relationship has been getting?

Mack Brown said UNC has increased its football funding and lowered academic standards to help first-year coach Bill Belichick out.

In a recent radio interview, Mack Brown claimed that UNC invested more money and lessened its academic standards for Bill Belichick compared to his final seasons with the program.

University of North Carolina chancellor Lee Roberts seems to subscribe to the belief that any publicity is good publicity regarding the focus paid on the football program since hiring Bill Belichick as head coach.

Mack Brown alleged that his former employer has set up Bill Belichick for success by upping their NIL package and lowering the academic requirements for his upcoming first season. The one-time national champion added that he’s expecting a big season and is “proud” for Belichick.

Carolina estimates a 35% growth in ticket sale growth overall. It expects that to climb to 50% when individual tickets become available for sale.

Diaz embraced the coaching change that occurred earlier this offseason in Chapel Hill. With an all-time legend patrolling the sidelines on Tobacco Road, more eyeballs promise to be trained on the 112th meeting between Duke and UNC than in years past.
