“Everett is one of the brightest defensive minds in all of football,” said Minnesota coach Tim Brewster. “It has always been a dream of Everett’s to coach at the University of North Carolina and it would have been very difficult for him to not pursue this opportunity. Everett has truly been an asset to our program as both a coach and a recruiter and I am grateful for his contributions. I wish him nothing but the best.”
