Former NFLer Mark Schlereth Gives Scathing Take On News Of Bill Belichick's New GF: 'He's A Pig'
Dudes across America had a newfound respect for legendary Patriots coach Bill Belichick after discovering that the 72-year-old had a 24-year-old girlfriend.
For a guy like Bill to pull it off, the news came as a bit of a shocker. Now Belichick's critics are coming out of the woodwork, and the first to call out Belichick for the ‘salacious’ relationship news was former NFLer Mark Schlereth.
As a recap, Belichick first met ex-cheerleader and current girlfriend Jordon Hudson, 24, in 2021 while on a flight and the two reportedly connected over a philosophy project discussion. After splitting with ex-girlfriend Linda Holliday, Belichick dipped back into the ol' philosophy discussion and hit it off with the much younger Hudson.
Now, Belichick — still a coaching free agent after splitting with New England — faces flack for the big age gap.
As shared by OutKick's Zach Dean, Ms. Hudson is also in the running to be the next Miss Alaska. Who knew Belichick had game like that?

Some may call Schlereth a prude, while others support his sentiments on Belichick's image.
"I think he’s a pig," Schlereth said, reacting to Belichick's relationship news with Jordon Hudson. He unloaded on the ex-Pats coach.
"That’s disgusting…That’s just awful. What are you doing? Plus, you just look like an absolute clown."
Belichick is in familiar company, considering Patriots owner Robert Kraft, 83, is dating a woman 33 years younger.
The coach has reportedly been open about the relationship in his circles and was spotted at Hudson's cheerleading competition in March. Belichick and Hudson were even spotted together this week at Tom Brady's Patriots Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

Belichick faced a rough stretch after leaving the Patriots' head coaching role. The guy is rebounding after missing out on a head coaching gig this offseason — after 24 seasons in New England. He then turned into the butt of a joke when the Apple TV+ series "Dynasty: New England Patriots" shined some unflattering light on Belichick.
Until the next coaching gig comes around to give the six-time Super Bowl-winning coach (8 total), Belichick will likely be spending Sundays at brunch with his new babe.
For Schlereth's liking, that gap's just too wide for comfort.
