Ole Miss QB Shea Patterson Explains Why He Transferred To Michigan

Ole Miss QB Shea Patterson Explains Why He Transferred To Michigan.....

Ole Miss QB Shea Patterson recently announced he's transferring to Michigan. He explained why he made his decision to the Toledo Blade...

quote:
“I’m really not one to jump ship on anything,” the Toledo native said. “But I’m really big on setting goals and achieving them. I did that throughout high school. One of the main goals was to win a national championship. At Ole Miss, I didn't have an opportunity to do that. Things didn't shake out the way I planned — coach [Hugh Freeze] got fired, the two-year bowl ban. I couldn’t look back on it after college and say I never got an opportunity to play for something like that.”

“I had a really good feeling around the players,” Patterson said. “How professional and business-like they were in practice really attracted me. It was just awesome meeting with coach Harbaugh. I could definitely see myself playing for someone like him.”

"One of the goals was to win a National Championship" but went to Ole Miss? Mentally ill much?

“Due to NCAA sanctions Ole Miss is unable to continue the payments to me and my brother”

They'll get a raise at Michigan.

“I’m really not one to jump ship on anything,”

Uh yeah you are. You went to 3 high schools and now 2 colleges in the last 6 years.

V2_Jigsaw•101 months

LOL, doesn’t jump ship? How many high schools did this kid play for again?

Lsu101205•101 months

"One of those goals was to win a national championship" "Also dont tell anyone but it helped that they gave my brother a job."

Y’all are forgetting how he jumped ship at Calvary first to attend IMG.

Appears to me that “jumping ship” is all this kid does. And obviously only thinks of himself.

He and Harbough will get along great.

Godfather1•101 months

This kid is Jeff George redux.

TigerOnThe Hill•101 months

And before Calvary, he played football his freshman year at Hidalgo, TX!

Champs•101 months

he jumped ship from LSU to Ole Miss during the recruiting period....he wants us to believe his statement?

Fightin Okra•101 months

He saw Ta’amu play and started looking around.

UFMatt•101 months

And he thinks that he will win a Natty at Michigan? LOL! Oh, and by the way, he jumped ship but may have been a good move considering the way the kid that took is place played.

Gumbo1•101 months

Yea. The backup QB is better!

oneg8rh8r•101 months

He didn't want to play LSU again.

"One of the main goals was to win a national championship. At Ole Miss, I didn't have an opportunity to do that."

Could be said by any other high school football player in the last half century

Translation...”I’m not a quitter but the situation got tough, so I quit.”

Don’t give me this, “didn’t turn out as I planned.” He knew full well (or should have known) that this outcome was a probability before he signed the LOI.

Hell, most people think Ole Miss escaped with what should have been a more sever punishment.

This excuse is a joke. Own up to the selfishness that is this move.

TigerSpray•101 months

Michigan outbid for his services.

BigPerm30•101 months

“Once the whores dried up and stopped answering coach’s phone, it was time for me to move on.”

lsutigermall•101 months

Ole Miss National Championship? Yeah, that's where I'd hedge my bet... glad we didn't get this dude.

TutHillTiger•101 months

He got paid now he wants to play for championship. Talk about wanting your cake and eating it too. What a guy !

LSUvet72•101 months
