The University of North Carolina reportedly is sending Jordon Hudson to the sidelines.
Pablo Torre of "Pablo Torre Finds Out" reported on Friday that the university has banned Bill Belichick's 24-year-old girlfriend from its football facility.
“Two sources at the University of North Carolina tell me that there has been a decision that was made last week by the higher-ups inside the athletic department that had hired Bill Belichick to be the highest paid public employee — not just coach in the state of North Carolina at $10 million a year — and that decision was that Jordon Hudson, she is no longer allowed in the football building,” Torre said. “She is not allowed on the football field.”
“Don’t think you’ll be hearing much from Jordon moving forward,” Torre said someone inside the Tar Heels program told him.
In addition to reported concern from North Carolina, Torre reported that Belichick's family has its own reservations about Hudson.
“Bill Belichick’s family is extraordinarily concerned by what has transpired,” Toree said. “(There is a) 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.”
Hudson has stepped into the spotlight since Belichick took over as the Tar Heels' new football coach in December.
She recently made headlines after cutting off a question for Belichick during a book tour interview with CBS. CBS News correspondent Tony Dokoupil asked Belichick how he and Hudson met, and Hudson interrupted from an off-camera seat, saying "We're not talking about this." Belichick later accused CBS of creating a "false narrative" that Hudson was attempting to control the interview.
There has been speculation about Hudson's role with the North Carolina football program beyond the CBS interview.
The Athletic's Matt Baker reported in April that while Hudson does not have a formal title, she wrote to the school's social media team to get ahead of nepotism allegations when Belichick's son, Steve, was hired as the Tar Heels' defensive coordinator.
