FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Bill Belichick doesn't want to see any of the New England Patriots' coaching staff in the facility at North Carolina.
The former NFL and current Tar Heels coach confirmed as much when asked about a report by The Athletic last week that said North Carolina's football program had banned a Patriots scout from attending practices this summer.
“It’s clear I’m not welcomed in their facility, so they aren’t welcomed in ours," Belichick said. “Simple as that.”
But Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that nobody is keeping Belichick away from his old NFL stomping grounds.
