The fanbase and former players wanted Petrino in 2012 and Matt had the opportunity to sit down with the man and hear his side of the story. Instead he chose to be Mitch Barnharts puppet and go on the radio and constantly bad mouth Petrino in hopes of turning the fanbase against him - and now look at what we are stuck with.
Matt, who describes himself as a bleeding heart liberal, already feels sorry for people like Ryan Lochte who caused an international incident, but chose to sit up in his ivory tower and cast judgements on Petrino. Matt has said several times that bad football = good radio, he wants no part of a successful football program because he doesnt have the ability to talk about the sport in an intelligent manner. Saying the football team sucks and calling for coaches to be fired is really the only thing he knows how to do, all he is interested in is ratings and website hits and he knows a coaching search is great for both.
