It\u2019s hard to believe that ESPN would dedicate an entire SportsCenter special to the ACC spring meetings if Bill Belichick weren\u2019t being interviewed. In fact, it\u2019s valid to question whether ESPN would air these interviews on its main network at all, rather than ACC Network, if Belichick didn\u2019t find himself the center of a complete media circus.<\/p>\n<p>But given the circumstances, ESPN has decided to do it. That\u2019s probably the right move from a viewership perspective. The question now becomes, will the network ask Belichick the questions that everybody wants to hear?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to envision an interview where ESPN sticks strictly to sports. After all, that\u2019s the core of the network\u2019s mission statement. But Belichick\u2019s current controversies have direct football implications, to the point where some are even <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/college-football\/pablo-torre-real-chance-bill-belichick-never-coaches-north-carolina.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">questioning whether he\u2019ll be the Tar Heels head coach<\/a> in Week 1 against TCU.<\/p>\n<p>To not ask Belichick directly about his relationship would be a journalistic dereliction of duty. We\u2019ll see if ESPN will go there. If not, the world will have to wait until Michael Strahan <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/abc\/bill-belichick-michael-strahan-good-morning-america.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">interviews Belichick<\/a> on Good Morning America later this week.<\/p>\n<p>\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The next chapter of the Bill Belichick saga may be written on Tuesday.
