Ever since Bill Belichick started dating 24-year-old Jordon Hudson, the spotlight on the couple has been quite intense. A recent contentious interview with CBS has only made their relationship more intriguing. In response, however, the University of North Carolina, where Belichick coaches the football team, has seemingly decided to take action and prevent this from happening again.

That’s right, after a viral interaction during an interview, UNC decided to hire a professional PR chief who has previously worked with the Chicago Bears. But what exactly happened?
In case you missed it, Belichick was doing an interview with CBS Sunday Morning when he was asked how he and Hudson met. It was a valid and appropriate question, considering their significant age gap and the media attention surrounding their relationship. But Hudson didn’t see it the same way.
“We’re not talking about this,” Hudson cut off the reporter. When asked for clarification, she simply said, “No.”
After snippets of that interview surfaced online, Hudson and Belichick both went viral for the wrong reasons. Some said Bill doesn’t seem to have a handle on his relationship. Others argued that Hudson shouldn’t be overstepping a legendary coach during an interview.
But at the end of the day, Hudson claimed she was just doing her job. After all, she’s essentially Belichick’s personal brand ambassador, though not officially employed by UNC. So, the school decided to tackle the issue itself.

UNC is clearly trying to curb the effects Hudson has had recently by hiring a PR chief. However, Belichick’s (former) fans think it’s too little, too late. They flocked to the comments under the latest reports to make their feelings known. Some believe Bill has completely tarnished the legacy he left in the NFL.
“Nobody can fix that dumpster fire! Bill just ruined his reputation and all his cronies that he has around him. Hard to see any NFL team hiring him or giving him a chance. Based on the CBS interview it shows that he cant be a leader of a team at this point. Sad but true,” someone furiously wrote.
“Belichick was a great coach, with Brady, but his shenanigans are going to get him fired,” another professed.

One fan even had a great idea on how to handle the situation.
“I have an idea… Don’t let a 24-year-old who wasn’t hired by the school to have authority over any single thing. You know, like every other job that exists. Problem solved,” they commented.
It has been quite the whirlwind of news with Belichick since he accepted the job at UNC. The man hasn’t even coached a single game yet! It’s wild that some fans are already forecasting that he will be fired sooner rather than later.
But let’s be honest, Belichick’s legacy has been spiraling out of control for a few years now. In his final years with the Patriots, he couldn’t ever get past the critiques that he only won so much because of Tom Brady. Furthermore, he couldn’t get a job last season with any NFL team, seemingly because they think he’s older and unwilling to adapt.
Toss in a SpyGate scandal back in 2007, and there’s plenty of reason to believe that the legacy of Belichick has been completely tarnished at this point. It’s unfortunate for him, but it’s also, in some ways, deserved. Bill dug his hole around 2022, and he’s been struggling to crawl out of it ever since.
