Bill Belichick seemingly gets support from girlfriend amid North Carolina football head coach rumors

She responded to a comment on her Instagram on Monday about trying to convince Belichick to Chapel Hill.

Freddie Kitchens was named the interim head coach for the Tar Heels' bowl game. North Carolina will play in the Fenway Bowl against UConn.

Belichick was linked to NFL head coaching jobs last spring after he mutually parted ways with the New England Patriots. He was linked to the Atlanta Falcons' job, but he did not capture it.

He said Monday on "The Pat McAfee Show" "we've had a couple of good conversations, so we'll see how it goes."

Belichick's father, Steve, was an assistant coach at North Carolina from 1953 to 1955. Belichick's son, also Steve, is the defensive coordinator at Washington.
