For years, Bill Belichick was one of the most feared, revered, and respected figures in the National Football League.
Besides his success on the field, his rather cold and mysterious persona only made him a bigger legend in the football industry.
He was never very open or vocal when talking to the media.
If anything, he made the most of every single chance he had to show he didn’t want to be there.
That’s why Skip Bayless doesn’t like his new transition.
Talking to his wife in his podcast, Bayless claimed that Belichick ‘needed attention,’ which is why he’s ‘flaunting’ his young girlfriend.
Bill Belichick needs attention, he needs publicity. He spent all those years in New England avoiding attention at every step. Now he needs a splash of attention because he needs to put himself back on the map in college football. pic.twitter.com/142iF0JGCU

Belichick has drawn mockery and criticism for his relationship with Jordon Hudson, given the notorious age gap.
He’s also caught some strays because his girlfriend is reportedly working as his de facto agent.
Then again, that’s not anybody’s problem.
If anything, it’s nice to know what Belichick is up to these days, and if he’s happy in a relationship with another consenting adult, that’s all that should matter.
Belichick doesn’t have to keep that shell and armor on all the time anymore.
He’s not coaching in the NFL, and he’s also entitled to some happiness and joy.
And if Hudson is parading herself around in an attempt to draw attention towards Belichick, it’s definitely worked.
It’s been weird not watching Belichick on the sidelines in the NFL, and that will continue to be the case for a little longer.
But if he does return at one point, it’ll be interesting to see how he carries himself now that we’ve all seen a different side of him.
