Good point I was distracted by the part where his coach signed a statement saying he hadn't heard cheating allegations and cheating had nothing to do with him being turfed from the team.

That's the coach of Georgia, not Augusta State.

Was that not the "affidavit" you were referring to?
What did the Augusta State coach say?

Patrick Reed - miss understood or a dirty cheat???
This is hardly definitive. Plus check out this other Steph Wie article.

It is already known that Reed was booted from Georgia for other reasons, lying was one of them. It is also mentioned in multiple sources that Chris Haack didn't find out about the cheating until AFTER he went to Augusta State.

Reed was suspended for two matches at the start of the season at Augusta State for cheating in a qualifying event. This after being caught more than once while at Georgia. Let me clarify though that I believe he is an EXCEPTIONAL player and a hell of a competitor. Just that he's been caught cheating and he should just admit that he f****d up instead of hiring lawyers and claiming everyone else is lying. So no, I don't think he's "misunderstood",

I understand your point. You know Reed's a cheat because you read an article that reported stories from people not willing to put their name to anything and you choose to believe he's a scumbag.
By that reasoning:
Somebody told me you're fond of a leather wedge when nobody's watching.
Is that evidence enough for anyone who reads it to believe you're a cheat?

I know what you're saying and if it was one person claiming a one off I'd agree with you.
It's not just the one article though. Would you not believe the former teammates speaking out publicly?

Have his former team mates spoken out publicly?
I've been looking for the interviews but can't find them.

A few guys responded on Twitter and promptly deleted their posts. Wie had a couple of the less accusatory posts before they were deleted.

I'm waiting for Stephanie Wei to claim she heard that he flew a plane into the pentagon.

Great thread.
I think money talks, and bull**** walks. If Reed manipulated his team mates in college, that's disappointing for his reputation. But, if he really was a 'cheat' he wouldn't have made the PGA tour, let alone have four PGA wins and over eight and a half million $USD in his bank account - all by the age of 25.
My guess is he may even be a major winner as soon as Augusta.
Wei seems to think she has Reed on the ropes because the supporting evidence was not in the form of an affidavit. Haack would have been advised that he could be compelled to read out his sworn statement in court, and that the oral statement would be constituted as evidence, not the written testimony.
