Pablo Torre’s investigations into North Carolina head coach Bill Belichick have set the world ablaze, from discussions about his relationship with girlfriend Jordon Hudson to his coaching future.
Torre revealed the Tar Heel program had banned Hudson from the facilities, something they later disputed in a statement. Now, he’s questioning whether Belichick will even coach the team.
Pablo Torre Questions Whether Bill Belichick Will Ever Coach For North Carolina
UNC faithful are rightfully excited about the upcoming Belichick regime, but a $1 million buyout starting June 1 has some — including Torre — skeptical he will ever coach for them.
“This was weird before Jordon Hudson became a character, one of the protagonists. It was weird based on that language alone, right,” Torre told Mike Florio. “It comes 10 times cheaper for him to pull his own parachute cord. Like, what is that about? What does that imply? And I think it implies very clearly that Bill Belichick wanted an escape hatch to go to the NFL.”
“And now it seems increasingly obvious that that escape hatch is not going to be activated to go to the league. But now it becomes this thing of, ‘Am I actually the boss in the way that I need to be? Am I in charge in the way that I demand to be? And is my demand being guided not merely by my inner circle of the same people I’ve been with that NFL teams kind of quietly laugh at behind the scenes,’ right?”
Torre explained that Hudson’s role behind the scenes may be bigger than we even still realize.
“You know, it’s also guided by her, because they have a relationship in which Bill Belichick has told multiple people that I’ve talked to directly, he has called her brilliant,” Torre said. “He has tried to get her six-figure jobs on the media enterprises that he was also working for. She is the COO of Belichick productions, even if that LLC is not actually incorporated anywhere. That’s the LinkedIn profile. She is his ‘idea mill’ and ‘creative muse’ per the acknowledgements page of his book. She is the person that you had to deal with if you were Matt (expletive) Damon … And so the speed running through industry, industries that she’s not familiar with. Look, I’ll be generous here, right? Maybe she thinks she’s doing what’s best for Bill. “

“All I can tell you based on reporting and evidence, on information and belief, as they say in a courtroom that I hope to maybe never have to enter … It’s done a lot of work, and what it’s telling us is that the unintended, at best, consequences of her being in charge has been disastrous.”
