UNC refutes report it banned Bill Belichick's girlfriend
The University of North Carolina athletic department refuted a report that coach Bill Belichick's girlfriend Jordon Hudson was banned from the Tar Heels' football facilities.
"While Jordon Hudson is not an employee at the University or Carolina Athletics, she is welcome to the Carolina Football facilities," Friday's school statement read, per On3.com. "Jordon will continue to manage all activities related to Coach Belichick's personal brand outside of his responsibilities for Carolina Football and the University."
Former ESPN host Pablo Torre claimed Friday on his show "Pablo Torre Finds Out" that the 24-year-old Hudson was no longer welcome around the team in Chapel Hill, N.C.
"There is deep worry for how detrimental Jordon can be for not just North Carolina but Bill's legacy, reputation -- everything he has built and worked for over decades," a Belichick family source told Torre.
"She's not allowed on the football field," Torre said. "Quote, 'Don't think you'll be hearing much from Jordon moving forward."
Belichick, 73, the six-time Super Bowl-winning coach of the New England Patriots, was hired in December and reportedly will earn $10 million annually at North Carolina. The Tar Heels open the season at home against TCU on Sept. 1.
