Was Greg McElroy too harsh on Matt Elam?
SEC Network analyst Greg McElroy made headlines in Kentucky last week after criticizing the play of Kentucky’s defensive line and singling out Matt Elam.Some people thought his comments were uncalled for and some people thought Elam needed the criticism to use a motivation.
“This was an embarrassing effort last year, particularly the former 5-star, Matt Elam, who’s lazy and as underachieving a player as I’ve seen in this league in a long time,” McElroy said.
WKYT’s Steve Moss spoke with McElroy just after his initial comment, and the former Alabama quarterback still continued his harsh criticism of Elam.
