2026-06-12 · Awful Announcing

North Carolina Tar Heels' Jordon Hudson, the girlfriend of head coach Bill Belichick, has made a massive public records request from the University of North Carolina (UNC) seeking communications related to a previous report about her. According to a report by Matt Hartman of The Assembly, Hudson requested public records from 24 UNC-Chapel Hill staff members, including Dean Stoyer, Michael Lombardi, and Steve Newmark, among others. The request includes call logs, voicemails, text messages, emails, and other communications between January 29, 2025, and May 9, 2026, that include the words 'banned' or 'ban.' Hudson is reportedly seeking to identify the source of a previous report by Pablo Torre that alleged she had been banned from the UNC football facility. The report sparked a viral interview on CBS Sunday Morning with Belichick, which led to the fallout. Belichick is entering his second season as UNC's head football coach following a disappointing 4-8 inaugural season filled with off-field drama, often involving Hudson. The North Carolina Tar Heels are looking to bounce back from a tough season and make a statement in the ACC. With Hudson's public records request, it seems she is determined to get to the bottom of the story and clear her name. The university has informed her that the request could involve 800,000 pages of documents and would cost her over $8,000 to review and redact. Hudson has yet to reply to a follow-up email from Hartman requesting her communications with Stoyer. However, she has filed four new requests for 'my communications, previous record requests, and a 'certified copy' of the newsletter in which The Assembly reported that Belichick had asked UNC-CH athletics communications staff to copy Hudson on all emails they sent him.' It remains to be seen how this situation will unfold and what impact it will have on the North Carolina Tar Heels and their fans.
