Matt Painter was all smiles after Purdue beat Tennessee 72-66 to reach the Final Four. Here is what he had to say to Boiler Upload.

You can see the relief from Matt. He finally made it!

Love seeing Coach's joy and laughter and lightness in this interview...he can say all day that this win and final four didn't do anything for his own validation but we can see it in him. So happy for him, he deserves this and the nation giving him his flowers. Not done yet!!

When Painter was a player at Purdue, nobody worked harder or played harder than Matt Painter. I watched all his games as a player. This has transferred to his coaching.

Yep, won Mr Hustle a few times. He def has a strong work ethic.

[@yeldesi9449]

it's about Purdue! I'm a Boiler! It's nice to win some games, even important games, but I'm always a Boiler! Hammer Down Boilers! OK, so Go Fight Win in Phoenix!

Chuck Barris! Not sure he was involved with Mafia, but did claim he was part of CIA; book & movie - Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. Gotta love Paint’s down to earth personality and keeping it real.

He wrote Palisades Park. You never know how good a kiss can feel until you're stopped at the top of the Ferris wheel...

Hey! Is that gal behind you at 0:53 trying to abscond with the trophy?

[@Patrick-uh8xj]

I'll admit it I gave up on Matt Painter, I'm glad Purdue didn't.

[@BobMonteith-cl6fz]

Who is the random blond at the 50 seconds mark holding the trophy?

[@tkamel18]

The final 4 made his hair black again and made him lose wrinkles immediately 🤣😂🤣🚂⬆️

[@hacc220able]

You played the Hulk and the refs played the Vols.

[@BridgestoneRB1]

Wahhhhhh!

[@vincentsutter1071]

Purdue is kryptonite for you volunTEARS! Whaaaah

[@DannyNoonan74]

The transfer portal & bribes are no way to field a championship team.

The game is rigged and Edey and Caitlin Clark are members of the protected class ... Those Zebras just refuse to call traveling on either of them ... WHAT A JOKE!
