Official: Shea Patterson eligible for 2018
https://mgoblue.com/news/2018/4/27/football-joint-statement-from-michig…
Following notification of this change, the University of Mississippi promptly reached out to the University of Michigan to discuss how these new standards could impact the University of Mississippi's support of a transfer student-athlete's desire to compete immediately at the University of Michigan. The University of Mississippi and the University of Michigan have worked together over the last several days in conjunction with the NCAA national office staff, and with a focus on the best interest of the student-athlete, to put forward a new waiver application. That new application was submitted this week by the University of Michigan and supported by both schools. The University of Michigan has withdrawn its previous waiver application and all associated materials in favor of this new, cooperative approach based on facts which all parties agree to. The waiver has now been approved by the NCAA and thus football student-athlete Shea Patterson will be eligible to compete in the 2018-19 academic year.
My Nigga!
Go Blue!
Great week?
Go Blue?
literally the most innocuous pro michigan in this thread gets 2 down votes?
because his username is Trump Train
I guess they don't like his politics.
Intolerance of intolerance means you're taking a stand for tolerance.
Anyone who names themselves Trump Train knows the purpose behind said name (troll) regardless of politics. Considering your join date I'm guessing you may be associated with the other troll account.
Odd, I thought no politics also included usernames?
Maybe the dude really likes euchre.
might not agree with that.
Sounds like Michigan was willing to let Ole Miss save some face if it meant getting Shea eligible.
Which is the way it should be, it's about the kid and not being bitter with the jaded ex-university.
LT only glaring hole. Which sucks because its not something that can be covered up.
Damn you calvin anderson.
do not pass go; do not collect $200
I'll bet U Miss admitted no wrongdoing, like when big companies pay a giant fine
Shea and his attorney had to remove language that Ole Miss objected to.
if this will work for pizza .....
Great way to kick off the weekend!
Both schools are ready to move forward and appreciate the assistance of the NCAA staff in bringing this matter to a resolution. While the process has been complex at times, the solution was simple -- two flagship universities and the NCAA staff working together with a focus on student-athlete well-being.
I assume the writer handed in their resignation after being forced to publish this paragraph of raw horseshit.
I don't think it was the lawyers...didn't Mars say it was Pinocchio?
