Steve Belichick, the defensive coordinator at the University of North Carolinaand the son of head coach Bill Belichickhas resigned from his position, while the university simultaneously concluded its investigation into the school's football program.

北卡罗来纳大学防守协调员史蒂夫·贝利奇克——主教练比尔·贝利奇克之子——已辞去其职务,校方亦同时终结了对该校橄榄球项目的调查。

In a statement released on Thursday morning, the university announced that Steve Belichick's resignation would formally take effect at the end of October, at which point the medical leave he had previously announced at the outset of preseason training camp would also come to an end.

校方于周四上午发布声明称,史蒂夫·贝利奇克的辞呈将于10月底正式生效届时其此前在季前训练营伊始宣布的医疗休假亦将告终

This move made him the second high-profile key figure to step down amid the investigation, the other being general manager Michael Lombardi, who departed earlier this month.

此举令他成为调查期间第二位高调请辞的关键人物另一位则是本月初离职的总经理迈克尔·隆巴迪

According to the statement, prior to the University of North Carolina's release of the aforementioned statement, the investigation it had conducted "determined that certain conduct demonstrated a disregard for Carolina's values and standards of conduct."

据该声明所述在北卡罗来纳大学发布上述声明之前,该校所开展的调查“认定某些行为彰显出对卡罗来纳价值观及行为准则的漠视”。

As for what exactly these behaviors identified during the review were, the university disclosed no specific details whatsoever, nor did it provide any explanation regarding the particulars of the investigation that was launched at the end of July.

至于审查过程中所查明的这些行为究竟为何,校方并未披露任何具体细节亦未就7月底启动的该项调查的详尽情况作出说明

"The investigation also revealed that the aforementioned conduct was isolated in scope rather than indicative of systemic negligence," the university stated.

“调查亦揭示,上述行为在范畴上呈孤立态势,而非系统性失职,”校方表示。

In interviews conducted on Thursday with reporters from The Assembly and Raleigh's WRAL, Nate Huff, the lead investigator and attorney, along with Paul Newton, the University of North Carolina's general counsel, both declined to comment on the detailed findings of the investigation or on the conduct of specific individuals.

在周四接受《The Assembly》罗利市WRAL记者的采访时首席调查员兼律师内特·赫夫北卡大学总法律顾问保罗·牛顿均拒绝详细调查结果具体个人的行为置评

However, Huff confirmed that his team, across approximately 60 interviews, conducted an investigation into allegations involving potential drug use, inappropriate relationships, and violations of NCAA rules.

然而赫夫证实其团队在约60次访谈中与潜在吸毒不当关系NCAA规则违规相关的指控展开了调查

"I never felt constrained or steered by the university's Office of Legal Counsel, the university leadership, or the athletic department leadership," Huff stated.

我从未感到大学法律顾问办公室大学领导层体育部门领导层对我施加限制或予以引导,”赫夫表示

"In my view, they were precisely the parties to whom I could turn for assistance in obtaining the requisite authority to investigate all of this to the very end.

在我看来他们恰恰是我可以诉诸求助的对象以便获取所需的权限将这一切彻查到底

That is my own personal experience.

这便是我的亲身经历

For this reason, my team and I were able to gain deep insight into Carolina football itself, along with the various circumstances at the compliance and cultural levels, as well as the aforementioned allegations.

职是之故,我与我的团队方得以深入洞悉卡罗来纳橄榄球运动本身,及其合规与文化层面的种种情状,连同上述各项指控。

Conspicuously listed among the interviewees is Bill Belichicka man who, in December 2024, completed his transition from the NFL to college football after six Super Bowl triumphs with the New England Patriots.

受访者名录中赫然列有比尔·贝利奇克——此人于2024年12月在新英格兰爱国者队六度问鼎超级碗之后完成了从NFL至大学橄榄球的转型

The investigation spanned the entire preseason training camp and then pressed on as the Tar Heels, having defeated TCU and East Tennessee State in succession, raised the curtain on Belichick's second season.

调查贯穿整个季前训练营继而焦油踵队接连击败TCU东田纳西州立大学揭开贝利奇克第二个赛季序幕之际持续推进

"During the football season, he granted me access to his entire coaching staff as well as to himself," Huff said.

橄榄球赛季期间他让我得以接触其麾下全体教练组成员及其本人,”赫夫说道

"And every coach I spoke with, every person in that building who struck up a conversation with me, the only questions they ever asked me were: 'When do you need me?' and 'Where do you need me to be?'"

而凡与我交谈过的那些教练那些在那栋楼里与我攀谈过的人他们唯一向我提出的问题便是:‘你何时需要我?’以及你需要我前往何处?’

Consequently, I was able to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the football program in the middle of the football season, and I was able to gain access to certain individuals, including even figures of the caliber of Coach Bill Belichick.

因此我得以在橄榄球赛季中期对橄榄球项目展开全面调查并且能够接触到一些人甚至包括比尔·贝利奇克教练这样的人物

When Bill Belichick held his first press conference following Lombardi's resignation on September 3rd, the questions he faced were for the most part entirely unrelated to football.

在隆巴迪于9月3日辞任之后,比尔·贝利奇克首次召开新闻发布会之际,他所面对的提问大多与橄榄球并无关联

Belichick asserted that he firmly believed the program he presided over possessed a "thoroughly" rule-abiding culture, and candidly acknowledged: "It is patently obvious that ensuring everything is in proper order is the responsibility of every single individual, myself included.

贝利奇克声称他笃信自己所主导的项目完全具备遵规守纪的氛围并坦言:“显而易见确保一切井然有序,乃是包括我在内每一个人的职责所在

That is precisely what we intend to do."

我们正打算如此行事。”

On the same day, Dean Stoyer, the University of North Carolina's vice chancellor for communicationsand the issuer of Thursday's statementdeclared that the university "continues to support Bill Belichick and the Carolina football program."

同日,北卡罗来纳大学主管传播事务的副校长迪恩·斯托耶——周四那份声明的发布者——宣称,校方“继续支持比尔·贝利奇克以及卡罗来纳橄榄球项目”。

The university announced the launch of an investigation at the end of July, several days after Lombardi had already been placed on paid administrative leave.

校方于7月底宣布启动调查而此前数日隆巴迪已被安排带薪行政休假

On the very day of Lombardi's resignation, Raleigh's WRAL, citing anonymous sources, disclosed the types of questions posed to some of those interviewed, several of which trained their focus on Steve Belichick.

就在隆巴迪辞职当日罗利市WRAL援引匿名消息源披露了针对部分受访者所提问题的类型其中若干问题将焦点对准史蒂夫·贝利奇克

Furthermore, Lombardi's attorney, Tom Mars, disclosed to The Athletic that the scope of the university's investigation now encompasses inquiries into potential "improper" relationships, though such relationships do not involve his client.

此外隆巴迪的代理律师汤姆·马尔斯向The Athletic透露校方此番调查的范畴现已涵盖有关潜在“不当”关系的问询惟此类关系与他的委托人并无牵涉

At that time, reporters attempted to reach Mars by phone or email regarding those remarks, but received no response.

彼时记者曾就该言论致电或电邮马尔斯均未获其回应

On Thursday, citing university personnel policy, the institution declined to comment on the individuals implicated in the investigation.

校方于周四援引大学人事事务政策拒绝就调查所涉个人予以置评

UNC stated that "all necessary corrective measures are now being implemented" and deemed the investigation "concluded."

北卡大学,“所有必要的纠正措施现正推行中”,并认定该调查已“了结”。
