Bill Belichick secures commitment from 4-star QB Bryce Baker at North Carolina
Bill Belichick secured his first big recruit on Saturday.
Quarterback Bryce Baker, a four-star Rivals.com recruit and the top-ranked member of North Carolina’s 2025 recruiting class, reaffirmed his commitment to the Tar Heels on Saturday, he told ESPN.
Baker had committed to play at North Carolina in June 2023, but he had yet to sign and was still in contact with both Penn State and LSU in recent weeks. But Baker said he was convinced to stick with the program after a phone call with Belichick on Thursday night. That phone call came just hours after the longtime New England Patriots head coach was officially introduced as the program’s next head coach.
