Baker Mayfield, Gary Patterson Trade Barbs Over TCU Recruitment
In 2014, when Mayfield was sitting out due to NCAA transfer rules, Patterson and Horned Frogs quarterback Trevone Boykin claimed Mayfield was stealing the Horned Frogs’ signals when TCU and Oklahoma met. This past season, TCU linebacker Ty Summers was ejected for targeting after a helmet-to-helmet hit against Mayfield that knocked him out for the second half of the contest.

Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield is a former walk-on at two different schools.
“Mayfield knowingly threw away a year of eligibility by the path he chose”, Williams wrote.
Mayfield said Monday that TCU “kind of hung me out to dry” when Patterson didn’t offer him a scholarship. “They disappointed me and kind of hung me out to dry right before signing day”.
“That’s made me who I am today, all the stuff I had to overcome, just going out and grinding it out and working for it, ” Mayfield told ESPN.com.
“He’s taught me that I can be aggressive but take care of the ball still – just keep it in our hands and eliminate negative plays”, Mayfield said. But ask Kliff Kingsbury why he didn’t offer him a scholarship at Texas Tech.

“For as many times as he touches the ball and is a factor in the play in as many plays as we’ve played this year, to only have five turnovers is pretty impressive”, Riley said. Ask about Baker’s dad [James]. “Remember what was going on then”, Patterson continued. “When did we tell Baker Mayfield he wasn’t getting a scholarship?” “If people knew the whole story, they might not have a great opinion of Baker or his father”. Mayfield led the Red Raiders to a 20-10 victory over Gary Patterson and the Horned Frogs in 2013 before defeating them again last November, 30-29, with the Sooners. Mayfield had played with TCU’s offensive coordinator Sonny Cumbie at Texas Tech the previous season. And should Oklahoma beat Clemson on Thursday afternoon, expect to hear more about both his big numbers and his sizable mouth.
