Charlie Mattos is putting away the mic
I can't remember before he did the games. i am going to miss him, especially "fiddling and fiddlling."
Re: Charlie Mattos is putting away the mic
Final regular season game tomorrow (Sunday); after that, I guess it'll be like it usually is for seniors with little hope for post-season; i.e., every SECT game could be the final final game.
Re: Charlie Mattos is putting away the mic
It turns out to be a little more complicated than that. According to Charlie on the broadcast today, his day job with WSM will prevent him from covering the Wednesday morning game; Kevin Ingram will do it instead. If Vanderbilt wins, then Charlie will be there for the Thursday game and for any further games. So if Vanderbilt loses on Wednesday, today's game at Alabama will be Charlie's last. But if Vanderbilt wins on Wednesday, then his last game will come later in the week. (All this is assuming that we don't shock the world by winning the SECT, of course).

Re: Charlie Mattos is putting away the mic
I don't live in Nashville any more. Don't know what Charlie does for WSM (radio? tv? both?).
But I would think after 30 years his bosses could give him one personal day off. Maybe on the proviso that he mention the generosity of his employer, yada, yada, yada.
Unless Charlie is covering the invasion of Ukraine, his potential final game at Vanderbilt should take precedence. Can we start a phone campaign to WSM?
