Barstool Sports' Dave Portnoy 'stunned' by Bill Belichick's awkward interview
Barstool Sports' founder Dave Portnoy expressed his surprise and discomfort at Bill Belichick's awkward interview on 'CBS Sunday Morning', which focused on Belichick's relationship with 24-year-old Jordon Hudson. Portnoy, who typically watches the show for its feel-good content, was taken aback by the tense moment when Hudson's relationship with Belichick was mentioned, which she dismissed aggressively. The awkwardness of the interaction was compounded by viral Halloween photos of the couple, which Portnoy discussed on his podcast, noting Belichick's apparent unawareness of social media attention. Portnoy, familiar with Belichick's usual stoic demeanor, found the coach's reaction uncharacteristically stunned, attributing Hudson's defensive response to a misunderstanding of the interview's typically positive nature. Despite the criticism, Hudson defended her desire for privacy in a social media post, as Belichick embarks on his new role as a college head coach at North Carolina, with Hudson often by his side.
