We know, we know, Bill Belichick was just hired to coach the North Carolina Tar Heels college football team.
But reports began surfacing Wednesday that Belichick is being recruited walk away from that arrangement and come coach the Las Vegas Raiders.
BetOnline doesn't see that happening. They have him paying out $1000 for every $100 bet to become the Raiders next head coach.
Former Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is now a minority owner in the Raiders and reportedly reached out to Belichick, according to an NFL.com report.
Multiple NFL teams have inquired about whether legendary coach Bill Belichick would reconsider his move to college football -- including the Las Vegas Raiders, whose new minority owner Tom Brady spoke recently with his old coach about what it would take to make a reunion happen in Las Vegas, per sources.
In a surprise move, Belichick agreed on Dec. 11 to a five-year contract to become head coach at the University of North Carolina and has spent recent weeks assembling his staff and roster for his first season coaching at the college level after nearly five decades in the NFL.
But Brady has been in touch with Belichick recently as the Raiders weighed the future of head coach Antonio Pierce, who was fired on Tuesday after going 4-13 in his lone season as the full-time head coach. Brady and Belichick won six Super Bowls together with the Patriots, and sources say Brady believes the situation in Las Vegas requires a coach of Belichick's expertise and stature to establish a sustainable winning program.
