re: Shea Patterson details scope of Ole Miss deception in lengthy letter to Michigan

He's looking more and more like a cry baby. Write your letter Shea. It's not like our national perception will be damaged any more by it or the NCAA will investigate us again. So what exactly does he think this will do?

IMO, here's the problem for OM. He's a huge crybaby who certainly knew and benefited from the 'situation' at the time he signed - but the average sports fan in doesn't know those facts. All they see is "that hooker-lovin', cheating OM trying to keep a kid from playing."

For OM moving forward, the faster the whole Freeze saga disappears in the rear view mirror, the better but things like this deal keep bringing it to the forefront again. He went to Michigan, so whether he plays this year or not will have no impact on OM's season. Smart move for OM would have been to simply not comment at all and let the NCAA do whatever they wished.
