Two things:

Mack was pushed out after the JMU debacle basically that is when the decision was made, lose at home to JMU by 100.

1) UNC has an attendance problem, Bellichek could put butts in seats.

2) Bellichek wants to coach and get his kids on staff some place -- that's why he wants to coach again.
UNC has ALWAYS had an attendance problem. They play in the Aluminum Jungle. Was a factor in Mack leaving the first time. He had them a top 10 team, playing another top 10 team at home and couldn’t sell it out. I recall reading the N&O back then him complaining about it.
I hate the troths there. Pee splashing around everywhere. It’s disgusting
Better than the East Side urinals that are 2 inches off the ground, so everyone misses and then you're walking in piss every time you walk through the restroom.
I’d rather walk through pee than to have other people’s pee splashing up on me.
This is the worst game of Would you Rather ever.

East side mens restroom is horrible! Urinals are bad the stalls are sickening! I went into a stall to take off some layers and it’s disgusting people are so disgusting. The guy that came in after me I wish I had told him I didn’t do that.

Apps's Bathrooms are so much better, they have heat, UNC-Ch's bathrooms have no heat.

If they hire Monken, he will not be able to bring his football team with him like other coaches can.

A lot of smaller places saying Belichick has accepted. Don't see any big places reporting it yet though.

Told he has accepted with conditions. A lot of conditions. So maybe. Maybe not.

Headline of an article I saw said 400 PAGES of conditions. I assumed it was hyperbolic so I didn't read it.

If Belichick does take the job, UNC-Ch will have an even harder time winning games, because everyone will want to beat the goat.

There would be a small chance that Belichick would strangle an obnoxious Tar Heel booster at Pinehurst No. 2 after said booster made several "suggestions" on who to start.

One step closer.

Actually, would it not be great to have another coach with Appalachian ties to save UNC-Ch's football program?

So we still claim Mac Brown? Left after one year and coached at Chapel Hill. How has he not been banished from the mountain?

I would rather see Steve purposefully torpedo the UNC football program than see him save it.
