The relationship between North Carolina head coach Bill Belichick and 24-year-old Jordon Hudson has reached a point of annoyance for one longtime NFL writer.
In a recent podcast appearance with Richard Deitsch, legendary writer Peter King remarked that he found the CBS Morning interview with Belichick that Hudson interrupted "totally embarrassing."
“This is a guy who owned every room he ever walked into and now he’s got a 24-year-old muse telling him what to do or trying to control situations that quite frankly she has nothing to do with or should have nothing to do with. Bill’s got to get a hold of himself here. He’s got to get a hold of this situation. This is embarrassing. It’s totally embarrassing for a guy who’s as great at his job as he is…” King said.
King felt that the interview was a "terrible look" and that Belichick didn't even give a good impression during the interview. He ultimately feels that he's not going to buy "this idiot's book."
“Bill Belichick, to promote a book, goes on Sunday morning television for however long it was, say 10 minutes, goes on Sunday morning television with a sweatshirt on with a hole in it,” King remarked. “Look at the video of it. He’s got a Navy sweatshirt on that has a hole in it… why does TMZ have him walking out of the Ritz Carlton hotel in New York in a perfectly tailored blue suit. Why? Where is he going? Why is he on a national TV show looking like he’s going to a press conference in Foxboro on no sleep and then he walks out of a hotel going wherever he’s going… that was a terrible look in the first place.”
“Anyone who watched that piece, anyone, look I’m just saying for me, if I’m watching that I’m not buying this idiot’s book. Why would I buy this guy? I hate this guy. That is going to be the impression I get.”
More and more details about the relationship between Belichick and Hudson have come out. Nearly all of them have people scratching their heads.
Belichick's fans and supporters assert that it's not our business to pry. Though with a figure as well-known and public as Belichick, it's still a source of major curiosity.
