Bill Belichick is getting a quick indoctrination to life with college kids — because his Instagram DMs are flooded.
Belichick, 72, was announced as the new head coach at the University of North Carolina on December 12. In the time since, Belichick said he’s become quite popular on social media.
“A lot of guys [have been] contacting us wanting to come to Carolina,” Belichick said Monday, December 30, on ESPN’s The Pat McAfee Show. “My Instagram account has been busy. Scrolling through that. Never thought I’d be saying that.”
Belichick continued, “But here I am. Joining the 21st century.”
Jordon Hudson shared a series of photos from a recent date night with boyfriend Bill Belichick, including one poorly-timed selfie of the new University of North Carolina head coach. Hudson, 24, posted a carousel of photos via Instagram on Sunday, December 22 from New York City’s American Museum of Natural History’s annual Museum Gala earlier […]
The former Patriots head coach has been busy recruiting with “a lot of guys going into the transfer portal,” the official way college athletes can change schools.

“It seems like every day, as teams’ seasons conclude with the bowl games and the playoff, they’re coming up,” Belichick explained.
The school will host potential recruits on campus during the weekends of January 4 and 11, Belichick explained.
“It’s been fun, it’s been good,” he said of the experience thus far. “Really enjoyed it. The school’s been great.”
Belichick added, “A lot of good players want to come to Carolina, so that’s a good thing. If you see any good ones, send them our way.”
McAfee, 37, laughed, but the former Indianapolis Colts punter was still stuck on the fact that the notoriously old school Belichick was using social media to his advantage.
“I cannot wait to see who ends up a North Carolina Tar Heel under your watch down there,” McAfee said. “I think that’s something that a lot of people would be excited about. I can’t believe you’re using your SnapFace and MyFace DMs now to connect with people that potentially are in the transfer portal, but I love it.”
While he’s busy answering all of his DMs, Belichick has also been a fixture on the Instagram feed of his 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson.
Bill Belichick‘s relationship with Jordon Hudson has everyone’s attention for their 48-year age gap. The couple sparked romance rumors in 2023 when they were spotted on multiple public outings. Several NFL players subsequently poked fun at his love life. “Belichick’s a smooth operator,” Travis Kelce said on a June 2024 episode of his and Jason […]
Hudson and Belichick met in 2021 while Hudson was still in college. They made their relationship Instagram official in October and, since then, Hudson has routinely shared photos of the couple’s busy lives.
When Belichick’s hiring at North Carolina was announced, Hudson revealed she’d be making the move south with him.
“We are onto Chapel Hill!!!” Hudson posted via her Instagram Story on December 13.
Belichick’s tenure as head coach at the University of North Carolina will officially get underway when spring practice kicks off in April.
