Bill Belichick under fire for controversial request involving girlfriend Jordon Hudson at work

Bill Belichick is embarking on his journey into college football. The six-time NFL champion is aiming to make his mark with the University of North Carolina. To achieve this, he’s bringing his trademark rigor to the program.

However, Bill Belichick’s new chapter has already hit a few bumps. This stems from controversial decisions, including certain requests tied to his girlfriend, Jordon Hudson.

Belichick’s Requests

It seems the legendary coach wants his girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, to be fully informed about what’s happening behind the scenes with the team. This has raised some eyebrows and sparked criticism about Bill Belichick’s leadership approach.

Reports indicate that Bill Belichick is determined to run Chapel Hill his way, eyeing a transformation of the program into something resembling a collegiate NFL franchise. He’s even made waves by adding a couple of lacrosse players to the football team.

But what has fans particularly concerned is a specific request made by Bill Belichick: he’s asked for all emails sent to him to also be copied to Jordon Hudson, his 24-year-old girlfriend. Some fans have expressed their unease, wanting Belichick—not his girlfriend—to take the reins of the program.

Fan reactions

While some fans initially believed the email request was related solely to social media matters, it turns out that’s not the case. Matt Hartman, a journalist at The Assembly, confirmed that Hudson is also copied on emails concerning interview requests.

The actual reasoning behind this request from Bill Belichick remains unclear, but fans haven’t held back their opinions. “This is going to end badly! Bill was a disaster in New England for years, and thinking he’s going to connect with 18-year-olds to help build a program is ridiculous,” one fan wrote.

Others quickly chimed in. “And Lombardi getting CC’d as well. What a circus!” another commented. While it’s possible Bill Belichick simply needs a trusted person to oversee his tasks. Fans are keeping a close eye to see whether Hudson gets further involved in the program.
