At least when its time to clean house again, you only have one firing to perform.  And you wouldnt have to worry about conflict between coach and GM, unless Belichek is a closet schizophrenic.

I'd take Belichik as a GM.  But if he wants to HC, you can't hire him.  He's 10 years past the time where he could have the energy and competence to be a proper HC.  

I respect his mind for the game.  But being a HC is a 24/7 job.  I just don't see how he could be successful at his age...  But if he wanted to mange the team and direct personell picks, I'd be OK with that.  I don't see how anyone would be against Belichik coming here to direct the team.

Coaching the team?  That's a non-starter.

Him getting GM duties in NE was literally the worst thing that happened to them. Things started going to [BLEEP] once that happened. He's not a good GM. He's too old school in his way of thinking.

Also, no, I don't want him as HC either. Jesus. We need to stop trying to grab retreads and finally get someone younger to try and be the next guru.
