Bill Belichick and UCF HC Scott Frost have more history than you'd expect

Bill Belichick has a coaching tree akin to that of legendary Alabama head coach Nick Saban, the G.O.A.T. of college football.

However, only recently did people start tying Belichick to college coaches, simply because he had never coached at the collegiate level until he took over the UNC Tar Heels' program this year.

Yet, with Belichick and North Carolina staring down the UCF Knights as their next opponent, people have looked back through his illustrious football history and found a connection to UCF head coach Scott Frost that most people would never guess.

When Belichick was the defensive coordinator and assistant head coach of the New York Jets in the late 1990s, Frost was actually on his roster.
