Meachem leaning on Patten
Nice article at wwltv.com. Good to see that Meachem is reaching out for help. Sound like a good kid who has found a good mentor in Patten.
http://www.wwltv.com/sports/stories/...n.2c6cfc1.html “From a humility standpoint, that takes a lot for a kid of that stature,” Patten said. “When you’re a first-round draft pick a lot of times this day in time, let’s be real, they come out cocky, ‘I’m the man, I know it all, I’ve already got it down pat.’ For him to humble himself and come to a guy and be like, ‘Hey, I need you to help me make it to the next level, help me do what’s expected of me.’ “First and foremost, he feels like he let everyone down last year, let alone his family and his team,” Patten said. “But more importantly, he feels so badly because most of all, he let himself down. “He’s such a high character guy, he has great work ethic. He would never make the excuse it’s his knee. He just says, ‘Hey, I’m not getting it done.’ He never blamed it on his knee. The reality of it is that’s what it was.” |
