The deal to be on 'Hard Knocks' reportedly fell through due to what was being reported as "creative differences" between HBO and Belichick's girlfriend, Jordan Hudson. Now, it appears that North Carolina (and Hudson) have agreed to a docuseries on their terms, as fans will get an inside look of the UNC football program under the new leadership that has taken over the reins.
According to Front Office Sports' report, no name for the series has officially been revealed. However, it's important to note that A firm controlled by Hudson registered trademarks for phrases, including:
Chapel Bill (Bill’s Version)
Do Your Job: (Bill’s Version)
No Days Off (Bill’s Version)
Sure, Hudson's involvement is a tad too much, but it's good to see that the UNC football program is still going to put together some type of programming for fans to enjoy. This new era of Carolina football is one that college football fans are very interested in following, as hopefully this docuseries provides some behind-the-scenes looks from the early Bill Belichick era in Chapel Hill.
More news will likely be revealed in the near future, as we could see this take off rather quickly, especially if the goal is to have this air at some point during the 2025 season.
