Patriots' Legend Belichick Lands College Coaching 'Job'

Without a job in the NFL for the first time since 1974, former New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick is headed back to college to teach a clinic in Nebraska.

Bill Belichick has a coaching job for 2024. Well, at least he has a gig ... going back to school.

The New England Patriots' legend and second winningest coach in pro football history won't be coaching in the NFL this season, but he will spend a weekend teaching Xs and Os at the college level.

Nebraska University announced Tuesday afternoon that the eight-time Super Bowl champion will be the headline speaker at its X&Os Clinic April 5-6.

The clinic is being put on by Huskers' head coach Matt Rhule. Belichick and Rhule have never coached together, but they did compete against each other in the NFL. In 2021, the Patriots beat Rhule’s Carolina Panthers. The next Summer at training camp the two teams engaged in multiple fights and skirmishes during joint practices.

Registration for the Belichick clinic costs $50. Attendees must be at least 18 years old, so high school students aren't permitted.

Belichick, Kraft Amicably Part Ways: ‘Always Be a Patriot’

Belichick, 71, parted ways with the Patriots on Jan. 11 after 24 years in Foxboro in which he won a record six Super Bowls. He is only 15 wins from breaking Don Shula's NFL record, but is staring at not having a job in the NFL for the first time since 1974.

After only getting interest from one team (Atlanta Falcons) and no job offers, it is widely assumed that Belichick will take a year off and accept a gig as a TV analyst in 2024.
