CBS fires back at UNC's Bill Belichick after awkward interview

Originally posted on Larry Brown Sports | By Larry Brown | Last updated Apr 30, 2025 7:25 PM ET

CBS fired back at Bill Belichick with a response on Wednesday.

Belichick conducted an interview that aired on “CBS Sunday Morning” over the weekend that has since received attention. One video clip from the interview went viral, and it showed that Belichick’s girlfriend Jordon Hudson interrupted during a question she did not like.

The behavior from Hudson has led some with North Carolina’s football team to reportedly grow concerned about her. But Belichick continues to let her run his public relations.

On Wednesday, North Carolina issued a statement attributed to Belichick that appeared to be written by someone else — such as Hudson. The statement said that CBS agreed to have the interview “focus solely on the contents of the book.”

CBS says otherwise.

Is a battle with CBS over who is right and who is wrong what Belichick had in mind when he took over the North Carolina job? Is he getting what he wants out of Hudson? Those are the questions that must be answered.
