‘Great friend’ Charles Barkley is starting to get worried about Bill Belichick after CBS interview debacle with Jordon Hudson

It appears those in Bill Belichick’s orbit are growing worried about the Super Bowl-winning coach in the aftermath of his awkward CBS interview and his 24-year-old girlfriend Jordon Hudson’s role in it.

Charles Barkley, the Basketball Hall of Famer and “Inside the NBA” star, said on “The Dan Patrick Show” on Wednesday that he’s “concerned” about the 73-year-old Belichick, whom Barkley says he’s been friends with since Belichick coached the Browns in the early ’90s.

“Well, this is a very slippery subject for me because Bill’s one of my really good friends. I’m not sure what’s going on. He’s been a great friend for me for a long time,” Barkley said. “I think he’s gotta be very careful right now. This is starting to be on a very slippery slope. He’s the greatest football coach ever, him and Nick Saban — for college, Nick Saban; for Bill, the NFL. Yeah, from what I’m hearing, it’s starting to be a very slippery slope.”

Barkley, 62, says he doesn’t like to discuss people’s personal relationships, though the normally private Belichick’s relationship with Hudson has been very out in the open with public appearances and social media updates.

“I will admit I’m a little concerned with some of the stuff that’s going on, and I might actually reach out to him to make sure everything’s good,” Barkley said. “But I am concerned from what I’m hearing. It’s not a good look right now, I’ll admit that.”

Hudson interrupted Belichick’s interview with “CBS Sunday Mornings” this past weekend when the UNC football coach was asked how the couple met.

“We’re not talking about this,” said Hudson, who reportedly interrupted the interview multiple times.

Belichick lashed out at CBS in a statement released Wednesday, claiming the network “selectively edited” the interview and did not live up to agreement to focus only on what’s in his new book.

CBS fired back later Wednesday, saying there was no such agreement.
