Matt gave an interview to CBS, saying, “That kid, his dad, went through hoops to f**k my life up. Eventually, it’s going to have come out.”
Tension was brewing with Wayne Gretzky’s son
In their college days, Matt and Tristan engaged in a fistfight during a basketball game and a lot of people were witnesses to it.
Things led into another and they ended up bitting each other. There was an uncomfortable situation going on between 16-year-old Triston and Matt, which consequently worked as fuel to their rivalry.
The former ice-hockey player, Wayne, was one of the major trustees at Oaks Christian School, so the result was obvious. Matt had to change and was devastated, as at that time she couldn’t get through any school.
In the interview, he recalled how he cried on the couch and told CBS that OC was the school for rich people where students would “flash money” and “never going to have to work a day in their lives”.
Although, after a bit of here and there, he took admission to Long Beach and followed his dream to be a star quarterback.
Matt grew to be a successful footballer
Sometime after the incident, in 2019, Matt started to play as a starting QB at Ole Miss and made records of higher attempts, passing yards, and completion. His list became bigger, making him one of the most demanding players among the recruiters.
