And of course, the noblest profession of all, teachers.
The Year of Our Lord 2024 should always be remembered as the time when he was denied that opportunity.
And by extension, we are all poorer for it.
But now you see that once again, he’s a Man in Full.
Doing exactly what he was born to do.
Yes, he makes great plans and devises bold strategies.
He’s a master motivator, to be sure.
But at the core of his being, he is that teacher we just mentioned.
So being able to witness him working directly with football players once again is a pure good.
That said, even a mentor as sage and scholarly as Belichick cannot do it alone.
Even the best educators need a teaching assistant.
He just happens to have one.
A woman who has his back and stands by his side at all times.
Even in the middle of practice, Jordon Hudson is with him.
And need her to help tuck them away.
I mean, just check out how perfectly styled her outfit is, with the white boots.
Matching coat and skirt.
So it’s good he has her.
Otherwise the film crew would never get the footage they need.
She strikes me as the kind of assistant he’s always surrounded himself with.
People whose judgment he trusts.
Whom he’ll listen to when it comes to all aspects of his football operation.
She’s like Ernie Adams with stiletto heels.
Mike Lombardi with perfectly coiffed hair.
Like Matt Patricia and Joe Judge, except she understands Belichick’s offense.
Regardless, it’s beautiful to see.
As I’ve said before and will continue to say, I’m in love with their love story.
UNC is lucky to have them.
And we’re all fortunate to see their collaboration first hand.
