Overview
- Hudson appeared on the sideline during UNC's 20-15 homecoming win over Stanford on Nov. 8 wearing a necklace that read "Banned."
- Multiple outlets interpreted the necklace as a response to earlier claims that she had been barred from the football building.
- UNC has said Hudson is not an employee but is welcome in Carolina Football facilities, with athletic director Bubba Cunningham denying any prohibition.
- Pablo Torre has defended the substance of his May reporting while later acknowledging he lacked nuance in how he described a "ban."
- Hudson has remained a regular presence near the team as UNC improved to 4-5, and Bill Belichick called the Stanford result a good home win.
