Belichick and UNC football are expected to participate in HBO's upcoming offseason "Hard Knocks" series, multiple sources tell CBS Sports. The deal has not been signed with the university, but all indications are it will be completed. Front Office Sports first reported the news on Friday.

The offseason version of "Hard Knocks" will go in a different direction for its second year. According to Ryan Glasspiegel of Front Office Sports, the HBO show will not feature an NFL team, but instead will follow Bill Belichick and the University of North Carolina football team during his first season leading the program.

Bill Belichick taking the North Carolina head coaching position stunned the college football world, and his next decision at the program could be another shocker. Belichick and the Tar Heels program could be chosen to participate in HBO’s forthcoming “Hard Knocks: Offseason” football series,
