After an earlier project fell through, there indeed will be a docuseries covering Bill Belichick’s first season as North Carolina head football coach this fall.
Belichick, a first-time college coach who won a record six Super Bowls as head coach of the New England Patriots, told the team in a clip posted to UNC football’s social media accounts Sunday that UNC’s 2025 season will be broadcast in a docuseries on Hulu.
This news comes five months after a reported deal for HBO’s “Hard Knocks: Offseason” to document UNC’s season fell through. The Athletic reported that deal wasn’t finalized because of concerns surrounding Belichick’s girlfriend Jordon Hudson’s desired involvement on the creative side of the project.
Hudson has been a major talking point of the offseason, establishing herself as a presence in Belichick’s media appearances and business matters. It reached a point where UNC had to release a statement refuting a report that Hudson was no longer welcome inside the school’s football facilities.
On the field, Belichick brought 71 new players (41 transfers, 30 high-school signees) into the program this offseason. The Tar Heels were picked to finish eighth in the Atlantic Coast Conference by media voters.
No information has been shared yet about when the series will premiere, with Belichick simply saying that it will be later this fall.
