Bill Belichick is apparently well aware that if things don't go smoothly in Chapel Hill, he can face some tough social media jargon.

The 72-year-old joined UNC to become its head football coach after being away from the sidelines in 2024 for the first time in nearly five decades.

According to a recent report by The Athletic, citing emails obtained through an open records request, Belichick emailed school officials showing his concern about potentially being called a "predator" online. Belichick is currently dating 24-year-old Jordon Hudson, who is also included in emails with the university.

"Is there anyone monitoring the UNC Football page for slanderous commentary and subsequently deleting it / blocking users that are harassing BB in the comments?" Hudson reportedly asked on Feb. 13.

Belichick reportedly followed up the next day, "I cannot believe that UNC would support my being called a ‘predator.'"
