Bill Belichick at North Carolina has what Dallas Cowboys couldn't offer: a sliver of a chance
The North Carolina press conference that riveted a nation of football fans Thursday could have been in Arlington instead. Jerry Jones could have cut the sleeves off his suit jacket, the same way the Tar Heels’ athletic director did, and Bill Belichick could have told an unverifiable story about watching the Cowboys as a kid. It would have been surreal, but at least everybody could have said they saw it coming. No one dared make that claim about this other thing.
According to The Athletic, Belichick received a contract paying him $50 million over five years at North Carolina. That’s not so unusual in the college game these days. On Sportico’s list of the 50 highest-paid coaches in American sports – all of whom make at least $7.75 million per year – 21 of them are college football coaches. By comparison, only 13 of them work in the NFL, the same number as in the NBA.
