North Carolina Tar Heels head football coach Bill Belichick will continue his weekly ManningCast appearances with Peyton and Eli Manning as part of ESPN's Monday Night Football coverage, according to a report from Andrew Carter of The News & Observer.

For Belichick, this is a breakaway from the norm. When he coached in the NFL, he did not hold weekly national television spots like he will as North Carolina's head coach. But it's a very different ball game in college football, and Belichick is embracing it. The continued weekly television appearances will spotlight North Carolina football and will certainly be used as a recruiting tool.

The Tar Heels want to be a part of the national conversation as exhibited by this hire, and it will carry over to Belichick's breakdowns of the NFL on Mondays with the Manning brothers during football season.
