Updating the report that there may have been some violations in the recruiting of Patrick Peterson involving Texas A&M, Peterson immediately claimed he had no relationship with Lyles (the man at the center of the allegations) and that he never visited Texas A&M.
Apparently, neither are true.
Why do you lie about visiting a school which is a pretty easy fact to verify? Not really very smart. Peterson would probably be better off just keeping his mouth shut. Why he is even worried about it? He’s going to the NFL where nobody cares about recruiting violations of college schools.

Hmmm, so Patrick Peterson was allegedly shopped to Texas A&M for $80,000. Cue the screams of probation and death penalty for LSU. After all, using this past season’s logic, if Texas A&M was supposedly illegally recruiting him, then LSU is the one in hot water, not the actual school that might have illegally recruited him.
