Jordon Hudson Returns to Cheerleading Roots After North Carolina Ends Drought

Jordon Hudson celebrated North Carolina football ending their lengthy losing streak by returning to her roots.

Hudson, 24, showed off her cheerleading skills in a video posted via Instagram on Monday, November 3. 

“When you don’t have cheer shoes….Just wear some J’s 🤣,” cheerleading coach Kris Murray wrote alongside the clip, which saw Hudson impressively flipped into the air while wearing Air Jordans instead of traditional cheerleading footwear. 

“Goated hashtag,” Murray responded, to which Hudson said, “I’m still cackling.”

Hudson won a Division III cheerleading national championship at Bridgewater State in 2021. 

The cheerleading video of Hudson was posted just days after the University of North Carolina football team, coached by Hudson’s boyfriend, Bill Belichick, defeated Syracuse 27-10 on Friday, October 31. 

North Carolina’s victory marked the first for the team since a September 13 win over Richmond. The Tar Heels had lost four consecutive games to the University of Central Florida, Clemson, California and Virginia. 

Belichick, 73, and North Carolina return to action when they host Stanford on Saturday, November 8. 

Hudson broke a lengthy social media hiatus on Saturday, November 1, when she shared her tongue-in-cheek Halloween costume. To celebrate the holiday, Hudson wrote the same outfit she wore in a now-infamous interview Belichick gave to CBS Sunday Morning in April. 

“The costume I never seem to be able to take off,” Hudson captioned the Instagram post.
