- NCAA. Bill Belichick still hasn't signed his contract with North Carolina and raises questions about his future: Is he returning to the NFL?
Bill Belichick's brief tenure as the head coach of the North Carolina Tar Heels has already sparked a whirlwind of speculation, but his 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, appears to be putting those rumors to rest-at least for now.
The 72-year-old coaching legend, known for his iconic career in the NFL, made waves when he accepted the Tar Heels job just over a month ago. However, murmurs of a potential NFL comeback refuse to die down, with some even suggesting that a team like the Dallas Cowboys might lure him away.

Hudson, a former competitive cheerleader, reportedly first crossed paths with Belichick in 2021. Over the years, their connection deepened, and the two began dating sometime last year after Belichick's high-profile split from his longtime partner, Linda Holliday.
Now settled in Chapel Hill, Hudson seems to have fully embraced her role as the coach's partner, often sporting UNC gear in her social media posts. On Thursday, she took to Instagram to share a series of photos, including one where she's pictured with Belichick on campus. One caption, in particular, caught everyone's attention: "Enough said!"
Despite Hudson's confident stance, one detail complicates the situation. Belichick has yet to officially sign his contract with UNC. This technicality could allow him to walk away without facing significant financial repercussions, especially after June 1, when his buyout reportedly drops by $9 million.
Belichick's history of abrupt job changes only adds fuel to the fire. Fans might when he famously resigned as head coach of the New York Jets after just one day. Could history repeat itself?
Belichick won't be going back to the NFL it seems
While Hudson's Instagram post strongly suggests that Belichick is staying put in Chapel Hill, some skeptics believe her optimism might be premature. After all, the allure of an NFL return-especially with a marquee franchise-could prove irresistible for a coach of his caliber.
For now, though, Belichick seems content with his new role at UNC, and his girlfriend's public declaration adds an extra layer of assurance. Whether it's enough to silence the rumors entirely remains to be seen.
Only time will tell if Belichick is truly committed to building a legacy in college football or if he has one last NFL chapter left to write.
