North Carolina coach Bill Belichick caught a stray from comedian Michael Che during the running “Weekend Update” segment on the most recent episode of Saturday Night Live.

Che’s joke took aim at the relationship between Belichick and his girlfriend, Jordon Hudson. More specifically it made light of the age gap between the couple, with Belichick being nearly 50 years the senior to the 24-year-old Hudson.

“Last week, the U.S. appeals court blocked a Biden-era student debt relief plan, which means the only way for young people to pay off their student loans is by dating Bill Belichick,” Che said as a photo of the couple appeared on screen.

Belichick, who won six Super Bowls as the head coach of the New England Patriots from 2000-23, has been dating Hudson for more than two years according to People Magazine. It is also mentioned that the pair first met in 2021 when Hudson was a college cheerleader.

Belichick mutually agreed to part ways with the Patriots following the 2023 season and spent this past year off. However, he recently accepted the Tar Heels head football coach job this offseason and will take over a team that went 6-7 this past season.

Jokes about the age gap between Bill Belichick and his girlfriend are nothing new, but we’ve perhaps not seen it on such big a stage as this. Regardless, the coach is certainly used to it by this point in his career and likely won’t pay much attention to it.

Report: Hard Knocks to feature North Carolina, Bill Belichick in offseason series

‘Hard Knocks’ had seemingly become a bit of an irritant in the NFL. That’s why, with the biggest hire of the coaching cycle, the show is now instead coming to college football.

Per Ryan Glasspiegel at Front Office Sports, ‘Hard Knocks’ will feature the North Carolina Tar Heels, now coached by Bill Belichick, after not finding a team that wanted to participate in it in the NFL.

“BREAKING: Bill Belichick and UNC will be featured on Offseason Hard Knocks after NFL Films could not find an NFL team to do it after the Joe Schoen debacle last year, sources tell @FOS,” Glasspiegel tweeted on Friday.

‘Hard Knocks’ has aired nearly two decades worth of seasons since 2001 from those at NFL Films and HBO. The award-winning show documents a selected franchise coming through training camp and into the upcoming season in the National Football League.

Over half of the league has been on the show in that time with the Ravens, Cowboys, Chiefs, Bengals, Jets, Dolphins, Falcons, Texans, Rams, Buccaneers, Browns, Raiders, Chargers, Lions, Giants, and Bears. The show had also recently done an in-season edition since 2021 with the Colts, Cardinals, Dolphins, and the entirety of one season spent on the AFC North.
