Sure they would. If Bill agreed to be another yes man for Jerry, he would be hired on the spot.

You saw the strained relationship with Kraft and BB, this wouldn’t even be a conversation. BB would never be a yes man.

The last thing this franchise needs is another fossil. Join the rest of the NFL and get one of these young energetic assistants or ex-players taking their team to the Super Bowl because they can think outside the box, know how to relate to the players, and actually have energy for what I hear are sometimes 20 hour days! (…and bring a GM with him!)

If Jerry ever wanted Bill, Bill would be here now.
Bill Belichick would also have a say in the decision but I mostly agree. Jerry Jones is capable of selling lemonade to a lemon but he has long since established having preferences for coaches that 'fit' him.

I have always called it the 500 Coaches Mentality. Namely, build a team of capable players and any coach can win with them. Unfortunately, Jones has never overseen a roster compilation that truly fit his self-made criteria as a self-appointed general manager without Jimmy Johnson's input (or Bill Parcells' to a lesser extent).

He is not a good enough front office manager to make that requirement a reality. His overall final decision-making is innately flawed for combining coaching hires and player acquisitions into a cohesive championship quality team. Yet, he believes he is good enough and does not need a Jimmy Johnson or Bill Parcells' type football authority to do the necessary work for him.

He basically built three separate teams around Brady and you claim he could not judge talent?
The BB haters are so amusing
Yes...the key part is around Brady. He's had some gems but he never kept his most talented players for too long. Brady made all that trash look better with exceptional skills and leadership.

Bill is also legit a great coach. But he can't draft for sugar honey Iced....

Sad. An opportunity missed. I mean, Bill could've had "bring your wife to work" for home games by installing his 24 year old girlfriend as a DCC. She's way too old for college.
I look forward to reading the rumor mill next year where headlines of "Belichick seen with 19 year old UNC cheerleader" swarm the sports news...lol

I know many fans were hopeful but many of us certainly suspect if he’d be interested with our dysfunctional situation giving up the control he seeks , assuming Jethro & Son would even pursue which was probably unlikely as well for same reasons.

I am a little surprised he didn’t pursue coming back to NFL only needing 15 wins to break Shulas total win mark. But I guess he wants to pursue being one of the HC’s to win both a SB and Nat’l Championship. Or just ride off into the sunset on his own terms .

Hard to say why he went this direction. Maybe the Taraheels just pursued him and no one else was calling. His style and persona doesn’t seem to fit this level . And unlike many coaches who start off at college level this will be his first stint.

ACC definitely appears to be a much easier major conference to break thru competition to playoffs than say SEC or Big 10. So there’s that.

Im just having a difficult time seeing him as a major recruiter at 73 years old with his demeanor . Maybe he’s counting on his name to carry it or depending on an asst coaching staff to go to all of these kids homes.

My hunch is while he could have some success I wouldn’t expect him to contend with the major schools around the country for the Blue Chip talent.

Good news is we won’t have the storyline or drama surrounding him in NFL. Now who is everyone’s pipe dream beyond Bill.
If you were hopeful for belicheck you're no better than Jerry
