So many in the media are hollering about it now. Even Finebaum earlier today. Danny/Trey at HS... Irwin, and Enos is doing something our Oline can't... He is Blocking everyone on twitter...

God knows I'm no white knight for the media, but Sam can't have it both ways. You can't yuck it up with absolute fools like Bob fricking Holt asking the tough ones like "talk about how great a kid Rocket is" but then get pissy and standoffish the minute someone actually asks a legitimate question pertaining to depth, scheme, approach, preparation, etc.

I'm not a huge Biddy fan but he's by far the best of the bunch who regularly cover the football program and attend press conferences. He asked a legitimate question about why we were rotating offensive linemen after the Kent State game and whether we knew who our starters were and Pittman got unnecessarily shitty with him. Biddy was right, it's uncharacteristic of a P5 team to be rotating linemen as much as we were 2 games into the season, as you'd have ironed out your starting 5 by then. So I can understand a guy like him being out on Pittman after those types of pissy exchanges and ultimately being proven right.

I don't remember what Petrino's pressers were like (save for the one with a neck brace), but I can't imagine he suffered fools like Bob Holt lightly. Pittman sure seems to do it gladly in lieu of getting asked actual football questions.
