Bill Belichick's Age-Gap Romance With Jordon Hudson Is Turning Into a 'PR Nightmare' at His New Job

Jordon Hudson can't seem to stay out of the headlines even though she's not the one who was hired by University of North Carolina (UNC) to coach their football team. That job is reserved for her boyfriend, former NFL coach Bill Belichick, who just happens to be 48 years older than her. The 24-year-old beauty queen seems to have a knack for drawing controversy and is now being described as a 'public relations nightmare' for the 73-year-old coach. More from SheKnows Mila Kunis & Ashton Kutcher's Romantic Getaway Sends a Message After Public Backlash The backlash at UNC is being felt across the board as the school is being pressured to let Belichick go by alumni donors and faculty members. The Daily Mail obtained emails via a public records request, and the messages are quite pointed. One donor wrote angrily, 'What a total embarrassment to UNC. I am withdrawing all my donations and future donations.' Another email from faculty member Christopher McLaughlin, a professor of Public Law and Government, to UNC Athletics Director Bubba Cunningham, argued about the unwanted attention Hudson was drawing to the program. 'When you agreed to pay a king's ransom to hire Bill Belichick, did you also know that you [were] hiring Jordon Hudson to serve as the primary face of [UNC] athletics? Normally, I would say the University should not concern itself with its employees' personal lives,' McLaughlin wrote. 'But when a prominent employee injects his significant other into the University's affairs, it becomes the University's concern. The staff member went on to describe Hudson as 'an embarrassment' while begging the school's athletic director to 'please end this circus before the season begins.' Hudson also became a hot topic in April when she interrupted Belichick's CBS Sunday Morning interview with Tony Dokoupil. 'We're not talking about this,' she said from off-camera when the reporter asked her boyfriend about their romantic origin story. Their ties are both personal and professional because Hudson is listed as the Chief Operating Officer of Belichick Productions and CEO & Founder of Trouble Cub Enterprises, per LinkedIn, and not everyone likes that. 'I think it's ironic that a man who really controlled everything — and I mean everything — now is being controlled by some other person,' said Upton Bell, a former general manager of the Patriots, told The New York Times on May 20. 'You can't just point at the woman here and say, 'She is being controlling. That only happens if you let yourself be controlled.' UNC's first football game of the season is Sept. 1, and Hudson is expected to be rooting for Belichick from the of SheKnows Amber Heard's Entire Dating History: Johnny Depp, Elon Musk, & More 11 of Prince William & Kate Middleton's Biggest Relationship Controversies 13 Celebrities Who Secretly Welcomed Children During Affairs

PGA Tour Reveals Tiger Woods' Honest Message on Max Homa During John Deere Classic

PGA Tour Reveals Tiger Woods' Honest Message on Max Homa During John Deere Classic originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The John Deere Classic is heating up at TPC Deere Run, and all eyes are on the tightly packed leaderboard. Davis Thompson holds a slim one-shot lead, but right in the mix is Max Homa, tied for sixth place at 13-under after three rounds. Just two strokes off the lead, Homa is in striking distance as he chases his first win since 2023, and he's looking sharp. Advertisement While fans were already buzzing about Homa's chances, a comment from Tiger Woods added fuel to the fire. The golf legend recently shared his thoughts on Homa's swing, saying, "I like his move... he's got a little cast at the top." Coming from a 15-time major winner, that kind of attention speaks volumes. Whether it's praise or subtle critique, it's clear Woods sees something in Homa's game worth watching. Max Homa during the John Deere Classic golf Lebryk-Imagn Images Homa has definitely stepped up this week. 'It's definitely the best 36 holes off the tee I've had in a while consecutively, so that's nice,' he said after Friday's round. 'I'm just trying to keep getting better every day.' Advertisement This performance marks his best 36-hole start of the season, and it couldn't have come at a better time. Known for his humor and Twitter game, Homa is showing serious intent on the course. With six PGA Tour wins under his belt and a top-three finish at the 2024 Masters, the California native has proven he can contend on big stages. Once a standout at Cal and a Walker Cup teammate of Justin Thomas, Homa's journey has been anything but ordinary. Now, with Tiger watching and the John Deere trophy within reach, Sunday could be a career-defining moment for Max Homa.

Pirates' lethargic offense stifled again in second straight shutout

This article originally appeared on The Pirates suffered a 1-0 road loss to the Seattle Mariners on Saturday, July 5, picking up just two hits (three baserunners) and never advancing past first base. Advertisement Pittsburgh (38-52) starter Mike Burrows pitched five scoreless innings, fanning six batters and working through traffic for much of his time on the mound, but reliever Caleb Ferguson gave up a run after allowing two doubles. The Mariners didn't need any more offense against the Pirates' lethargic bats, who haven't plated a run over their last 19 innings of play. Two Spencer Horwitz singles were all that saved Pittsburgh from a no-hitter. Mariners starter Luis Castillo carried a perfect game through the first three innings and went seven in total, striking out eight on an efficient 99 pitches.
