Big Boi was on hand to see the big announcement. Cross offered a brief monologue before revealing his choice, while standing in front of his football team. “I just want to thank my family: mom and my dad, coach Davis, my football team. With that being said, I want to announce that I committed to the University of Oregon.”
Big Boi post the whole moment on his Instagram with the caption “Congrats Son ! We are so proud of u ! #18 @crosspatton Keep Pushing , The world is yours ! Thanks to All the Coaches and @realcoachttmp #TmpMafia #GoDucks.”
Cross is 5′ 6″, 170 pounds, is not rated by recruiting services. He reportedly fielded offers from FCS programs including Columbia and Butler and had interest from larger universities including Georgia Tech and Florida State University.
Congrats to the Patton Family.
