North Carolina football is in a precarious position with newly hired coach Bill Belichick due to ongoing issues surrounding his personal life, particularly with his girlfriend, Jordon Hudson. As his contract buyout decreases from $10 million to $1 million on June 1, there is a possibility he may never coach a game for the Tar Heels, forcing the school to seek an interim coach for 2025. Potential candidates include Freddie Kitchens, Steve Belichick, Geoff Collins, Dino Babers, and Tom Herman, each with varying degrees of familiarity and experience in college football.
