UNC released Belichick’s contract details to the public following his official signing of the deal. The contract’s details come amid loads of speculation about what’s in it and what his buyout looks like in case there’s a return to the NFL in the future.

One of the doubts a lot of people had about Bill Belichick coaching at North Carolina was his appetite for hitting the recruiting trail. Nothing he did during his incredibly accomplished NFL career suggests this would be something he'd find particularly enjoyable.

Belichick’s base salary is $1 million annually, paid monthly. On top of that, he’ll rake in a supplemental income of $9 million each year for promotional and media duties. These include appearances at events sponsored by UNC’s advertisers and donors, press conferences, and other special engagements.
