Report: Ole Miss Objects To Shea Patterson’s Immediate Eligibility

CBS’ Dennis Dobbs is reporting that Ole Miss has disagreed with the assessment that they knowingly lied to recruits about NCAA violations and that Shea Patterson should not have immediate eligibility with the Wolverines:

“Whoever wrote that response for Ole Miss either wasn’t paying attention last year or had a case of selective amnesia,” Thomas Mars (Patterson’s laywer) said.

Another person working closely with Patterson’s appeal said misleading statements made by Freeze about the scope of the NCAA investigation were “a flat-out, deliberate lie.”

Wolverine fans will get a chance to watch Patterson, whether eligible in 2018 or not, this Saturday for the Spring Game.
