On Monday night, in front of a crowd filled with A-list sports celebrities from Michael Jordan to New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone and a national television and streaming audience on ESPN, legendary head coach Bill Belichick suffered the worst humiliation of his career.
In his debut as a college coach after a 50-year NFL career that started as a low-level assistant with the Baltimore Colts â nine years before they moved to Indianapolis â and included a record six Super Bowl titles in a 24-year tenure leading the New England Patriots, Belichick suffered the worst loss of his career.
Historic Humiliation For Belichick
His North Carolina Tar Heels allowed 48 points to visiting Texas Christian University, more than any other Belichick-coached team in his 511 games as head coach, and scored just 14 to lose by 34 points. In those 511 games, only one time has a Belichick team lost by more (35 in a 2021 Patriots Wild Card playoff game against the Buffalo Bills).
For what may have been the most hyped college football coaching debut in history and certainly in recent memory, the game mist have been a humbling experience for Belichick â who at $10 million per year over five years reigns as the highest paid state employee in North Carolina history.
Scrutiny Over Much Younger Gal-Pal
In the months-long lead-up to Belichick’s UNC debut, the 73-year-old coach has also been forced to endure intense public scrutiny of his romantic relationship with Jordon Hudson, a former cheerleader who is only 24 years old and has been suspected of wielding undue influence over Belichick and his financial affairs.
But the indignities did not end with the final whistle at Kenan Memorial Stadium in Chapel Hill on Monday night. While Belichick was left trying to figure out how to get more out of the squad that he radically reshaped from last season by bringing 70 new players in through recruiting and the transfer window, TCU’s players were celebrating their blowout victory in a game where they were generally treated as an afterthought, lost in the long shadow of Belichick and his new career direction.
TCU Safety Bud Clark Has His Say
TCU 25-year-old, sixth year safety Bud Clark â projected by Fox Sports to go as high as No. 27 in the 2026 NFL draft â made sure to taunt the legendary coach in an Instagram Live stream from the Horned Frogs locker room.
And Clark did not simply troll Belichick over the one-sided defeat, but over his May-December relationship with Hudson, shouting repeatedly into the camera, “Belichick gotta call for his girlfriend!”
Belichick is the father of three from his 29-year marriage to high school sweetheart Debby Clarke. His eldest child is daughter Amanda, 41, the head lacrosse coach at College of the Holy Cross in Massachusetts. His two sons, Steve, 38, and Brian, 35, serve on their father’s staff as defensive coordinator at UNC, and safeties coach, respectively.
All are obviously more than a decade older that Belichick’s current girlfriend.
Though there had previously been reports, denied by the school, that Hudson was banned from Tar Heels facilities and practices, she was on hand at Monday’s game, photographed in an exclusive sky box at Kenan Stadium, next to Hall of Fame NFL wide receiver Randy Moss, now an NFL commentator for ESPN.
Moss, at 48 twice Hudson’s age, played for Belichick’s New England Patriots from 2007 to 2010.
