Dave Portnoy makes ‘shocking’ accusation about Bill Belichick’s ‘strange’ public statement

Dave Portnoy surmised that Bill Belichick’s recent public statement on his messy “CBS Sunday Morning” interview was actually written by girlfriend Jordon Hudson.

“In my years following Bill Belichick, I would say my knowledge of him, there’s roughly zero percent chance he wrote that,” Portnoy said during Thursday’s episode of Sirius XM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show.”

“But he just doesn’t care generally what anyone thinks about him,” he continued. “So to go write that — my guess would be Jordon wrote that.”

Kelly, who previously theorized Belichick is suffering from elder abuse, agreed.

“The fact that it [the statement] is on the North Carolina website is insane! Just insane,” Portnoy, who said he knows Belichick “personally,” added.

“It’s shocking.”

Portnoy took to his own platform, “The Unnamed Show” podcast on Thursday, to reveal a first impression of the 24-year-old former cheerleader that supports his theory.

“I had met Jordon, and it was clear she ran the show,” Portnoy told co-hosts Kirk Minihane and Ryan Whitney.

“Like, she managed — we both were together at a speaking gig — she just ran the show. It was very obvious,” he explained.

The Barstool Sports founder, however, denied he got “crazy” vibes from Hudson and said he doesn’t “know what’s going on” after the excruciating interview.

“I know her, and I know him, and I’m gonna see them, I’m sure, in Nantucket,” he said. “And she sees everything that is said.”

He continued, “Am I afraid of her? No. Am I gonna sit here and really go out and be like, ‘She’s the craziest person I’ve ever seen’? No, because I don’t wanna be awkward when I’m carrying my watermelon from Stop & Shop.”

In viral clips of the conversation, which aired Sunday, Hudson interrupted Belichick’s interview with Tony Dokoupil to stop a question about how they met.

“We’re not talking about this,” she said. Dokoupil explained the encounter with a voiceover stating that Hudson was a “constant presence” on the set of the interview and that the couple was not “comfortable” with the topic.

Following intense public backlash, Belichick released the public statement defending Hudson on Wednesday.

“I agreed to speak with ‘CBS Sunday Morning’ to promote my new book, ‘The Art of Winning: Lessons from My Life in Football.’” Belichick, 73, wrote.

“Prior to this interview, I clearly communicated with my publicist at Simon & Schuster that any promotional interviews I participated in would agree to focus solely on the contents of the book.”

Belichick went on to say that the “expectation was not honored during the interview,” and claimed that Hudson only intervened after he’d “repeatedly” and unsuccessfully attempted to redirect the topic to his book.

Hudson, the statement said, interjected to “reiterate that point to help refocus the discussion.”

CBS wasted no time in responding to the statement, issuing their own statement on Wednesday through a CBS News spokesperson.

“When we agreed to speak with Mr. Belichick, it was for a wide-ranging interview,” the spokesperson wrote on X.

“There were no preconditions or limitations to this conversation. This was confirmed repeatedly with his publisher [Simon & Schuster] before the interview took place and after it was completed.”

The saga is nowhere near over. A source told Page Six on Thursday that the pageant contestant “demanded” to be an executive producer on the UNC coach’s docuseries “Hard Knocks,” and expected to see dailies of the now-scrapped show.

“The ‘Hard Knocks’ people were like, we can’t deal with this goodbye, and they walked away,” the insider told us.

Hudson and Belichick initially met on a flight in 2021. They took their relationship public at a gala in December.
