Bill Belichick is the end all, be all in the University of North Carolina football program. However, it seems he is making moves to make his girlfriend a very influential individual inside the program as well.
New England Patriots legend Bill Belichick will go down as the greatest head coach in NFL history. That’s the sort of status that comes with being a key part of eight Super Bowl wins. However, his decline in New England was steep. That, matched with his age — 72 years old — are why he struggled to find a new job since his 2024 dismissal.
So instead of being shut out of a second straight hiring period, Belichick stunned the football world when he took over as head coach at UNC. Yet, that is not the most surprising development in the coach’s life over the last couple of years. The AARP candidate is also dating a woman nearly 50 years younger.
Jordon Hudson being on Belichick’s arm at various events over the last year has gotten a lot of mainstream attention. As he joins the club of men going through a late-life crisis instead of a mid-life one. However, what sports fans may not realize is the elderly coach is also working toward giving Hudson a stunning amount of influence at UNC.

Bill Belichick giving girlfriend surprising influence at North Carolina?
This week, The Assembly UNC reporter Matt Hartman revealed an internal email where Bill Belichick made a very odd request regarding his gal pal Hudson.
“Thank you for the email. I am including Jordon on this email so she can also keep up with our postings,” Belichick said in an email to Senior Athletic Director Robbi Pickerall Evans. “Can you include her on anything you send to me? Thank you.”
That is a pretty surprising correspondence. The 72-year-old either wants Hudson to have a role with him in helping to run the program, or she is serving as an assistant in messages between two of the most important people in the program. Either way, the former cheerleader, as well as cosmetology and hair academy student is probably not qualified for the job.
