Lombardi Resigns Amid Ongoing Probe | North Carolina Tar Heel Football News

Michael Lombardi, the high-profile NFL vet brought in by Bill Belichick to overhaul North Carolina football’s front office, has stepped down amid an ongoing investigation.

Lombardi, who was on paid leave and confirmed his resignation through counsel, said it was best for the team to move forward ahead of the season. His departure — just days after a win in Ireland — marks a major shakeup for a program that had hoped to bring championship-level discipline from the pros to college football.
