Pablo Torre threatens UNC with lawsuit amid his Bill Belichick-Jordon Hudson investigation
Podcaster Pablo Torre has quickly become one of the foremost experts on Bill Belichick's relationship with Jordon Hudson, breaking a number of stories related to it, and the ex-ESPNer said he's willing to take the University of North Carolina to court if they fail to comply with public record requests related to the football program. Torre, who has dedicated two episodes of his show 'Pablo Torre Finds Out' to uncovering details around the relationship, said during an appearance with Mike Florio on 'PFT PM' that UNC owed him a response to multiple public records requests by Friday. And he hinted that he would be willing to sue the university to 'hold them to account.' Advertisement 3 Bill Belichick and Girlfriend Jordon Hudson at the Nantucket Christmas Stroll. Instagram/@jordon_isabella 'These are public records requests,' he said. 'I don't know why this should be vague or ambiguous. If you're listening, like, it's not like, 'Show me your emails,' as if there is no expectation of it. It's, 'You get as part of the pact between a public university and the federal government, you get things in exchange for what feels like a reasonable level of transparency.' So we can tell what is this public money going towards? It's standard operating procedure, and if we don't — if we feel like they are not obliging their legal obligations, we will certainly pursue avenues to make it so.' Belichick, 73, is headed into his first season at the helm of the UNC football program, marking the first time he's coached at the collegiate level.

Pablo Torre Finds Out Others have also questioned the reporting and interest in the relationship, which Torre himself pushed back on during the interview with Florio on Tuesday. 'I've seen enough reporters who love to suck up to coaches who are like, 'Look, the Jordon Hudson story was wildly exaggerated from the start,' and all I can tell them is that, 'You guys got to do some reporting if you think that that's plausible that we are overestimating the impact here,'' Torre said, 'because it's verified, documented, now increasingly public. 'They're missing the story, and that's what's also darkly humorous about this.'
