Back to School: What's 'Cool' New England Patriots Legend Bill Belichick Doing On Campus?

The New England Patriots made the decision to move on from Bill Belichick shortly after the 2023 regular season came to an end. Since then, the coaching legend hasn't been quiet about making the rounds for other franchises and college programs.

This past week, the eight-time Super Bowl champion coach for the Patriots and New York Giants made his latest trip to Washington for a two-pronged reason. First, Belichick was the key note speaker at a coaches clinic for the Huskies as they began Spring Workouts this week. The plan was for Belichick to join his former assistant Jedd Fisch where he would watch practice and then speak to players.

There's another reason why Belichick would possibly chose to come to Washington in the first place - his son Steve.

The oldest son of Belichick's children, Steve took a position with the Huskies as the defensive coordinator for the Nation runner-ups last season.

"It's cool. I'm glad he got to come out here," Belichick said. "I look up to him in so many different areas but to have him out here to lean on is awesome."

It has been a tumultuous offseason for the Belichick family as a whole. The youngest brother Brian has chosen to remain with the Patriots organization as they turn to Jerod Mayo to lead the franchise in the future. Bill, on the other hand, has had to deal with the fall-out from Apple's "The Dynasty" in which his coaching and overall legacy were called into question by Patriots owner Robert Kraft and several former players.

If he was worried about it, though, the 71-year-old isn't showing it. At the very least, he continues to be active around the football landscape.
