Jordon Hudson has been spotted on the sideline of UNC's latest game - hours after an illuminating hot mic moment was leaked.
In the clip, which was obtained and reported upon by Pablo Torre, Hudson was seen scrutinizing on-screen graphics on the set of 'Coach,' the podcast that Belichick previously hosted with Matt Patricia.
And on Friday night, Hudson could be seen on the sideline ahead of UNC's matchup against California in a photo snapped by reporter Emily Van Buskirk.
Hudson, who has been a frequent presence on the Tar Heels' sideline during Belichick's first season in Chapel Hill, was seen wearing a yellow and grey trench coat and thigh-high navy blue boots.
Hours earlier, she made headlines once again after the hot mic video showed her making some critical remarks about the show's graphics department.
'I thought this was going to look like it was scribbled into a playbook,' she said. 'This feels like a "how many people does it take to screw in a lightbulb" situation.'

'I don’t know how they have four full-time graphics people,' Hudson continued, to which Belichick responded: 'They can't do s***.'
Hudson also told producers out of shot of the camera that she could make slicker graphics than what they have managed to create.
'I mean, damn... if somebody puts on a clock, I can create this in five minutes. Will you give me two grand to do that?' she asks, as Belichick chuckled.
Furthermore, Hudson also suggested that they have a meeting with the graphics team to correct their purportedly wrong work.
'I said that there was a certain way we wanted these to look... based upon what it was they were talking about. This would have graphics that would almost look like they have ripped the page out of their playbook and slapped it on the screen,' she said.
'Can we do that (design the graphics) with them? And sit there and say say, you know, as they are doing it, that's wrong? Can we set up a meeting with the entire graphics team and anybody that has anything to do with this?'
The clip, of course, was not the first time that Hudson was seen meddling in Belichick's affairs, as she was seen vetoing a question about how she and Belichick met during an awkward 'CBS Sunday Morning' interview.
And Torre claimed on his latest episode of 'Pablo Torre Finds Out' that CBS has 'another 30 minutes' of footage of Hudson intervening from off camera during that notorious interview.
Hudson has maintained a presence on the UNC sideline and was spotted in conversation with ACC Commissioner Jim Phillips on October 4
While Hudson continues to manage Belichick's off-field brand, UNC brought in former Chicago Bears PR director Brandon Faber to handle the football program's communications following the CBS episode.
Nonetheless, Hudson has continued to maintain a presence on the UNC sideline, and was seen chatting with ACC commissioner Jim Phillips earlier this month before the Tar Heels played Clemson.
It's been a rocky start to life in Chapel Hill for Belichick, as his team entered Friday night's matchup winless against major conference foes.
The Guardian's Ollie Connolly also reported last week that Belichick had already discussed potential exit plans with Tar Heels higher-ups.
Those claims were swiftly denied by Belichick and UNC brass as the coach said he was 'fully committed to UNC Football and the program we're building there.'
However, fresh rumors of a Belichick exit were sparked this week when his daughter-in-law Jenny posted a photo of a moving van in front of her and her husband Steve's home.
Steve is Belichick's defensive coordinator at UNC, and The Guardian had also reported that Belichick's assistants were also preparing to leave the school.
