FOX Sports college football writers discuss the biggest story of the 2024 season, ultimately landing on Bill Belichick's unexpected move to coach North Carolina.
The 2024 college football season has been filled with memorable moments. There were plenty of upsets: from Georgia Tech's stunning win over Florida State in Week 0 (not so stunning after all) and Northern Illinois' unexpected triumph over Notre Dame in Week 2, to Vanderbilt's memorable victory over Alabama in Week 6 and Michigan's remarkable win over rival Ohio State to close out the regular season.
There were plenty of individual highlights: from Ashton Jeanty's 267-yard, six-touchdown performance in Week 1 to Travis Hunter's regular-season finale, finishing with 10 catches for 110 yards and three touchdowns on offense, while adding an interception on defense. And yes, there were plenty of coaching changes that took the college football world by storm: from Rich Rodriguez returning to West Virginia and Scott Frost heading back to UCF, to Bill Belichick being named the head coach at North Carolina. But what was the single biggest storyline in college football this year? FOX Sports college football writers Laken Litman, RJ Young and Michael Cohen are here to answer that question as we get set to flip the calendar to 2025. What has been the biggest story of the 2024 college football season? Laken Litman: Bill Belichick being named North Carolina's new head coach. When the news broke, it was a totally wild, head-scratcher moment. After everything he's accomplished in his legendary coaching career, he's decided that now he wants to jump into chaos. NIL and the transfer portal are reasons why his good friend Nick Saban left the game. But given that Belichick spent years navigating salary caps and free agency, maybe this won't be so new for him after all. Given the experience he has building a front office, and how he'll try to replicate it at UNC, maybe Belichick will be further ahead of most schools than everybody think
