Recent claims that the University of North Carolina (UNC) banned Jordon Hudson, girlfriend of NFL coach Bill Belichick, from their football facility are false. The rumor originated from former ESPN reporter Pablo Torre, who stated on his podcast that UNC made the decision to keep Hudson away so Belichick could focus on football. However, UNC officials later clarified that Hudson is not banned from the facility. They noted that she is not an employee of the university but rather operates more like Belichick’s manager.
Despite initial claims, UNC confirmed that Hudson’s access is not restricted, although she may not be included in certain email communications related to Belichick. Torre faced backlash for the accuracy of his report, stating he based his claims on information from high-level sources within the football program but acknowledged that the university could adjust its stance. Concerns from Belichick’s family have also emerged, fearing that Hudson’s presence could negatively impact his legacy and reputation. Overall, Hudson’s relationship with Belichick remains scrutinized, with calls for the media to respect their privacy.
