Pat McAfee appeared to make his first public comments about the controversy he’s found himself in after an Ole Miss freshman pointed the finger at him for helping to spread an untrue internet rumor about her.   Mary Kate Cornett, the 19-year-old college student, has taken aim at McAfee and other sports talk personalities that she said have amplified the bizarre rumor that she had been sleeping with her boyfriend’s father. The salacious rumor captured the imagination of the internet and eventually led to the ex-NFL punter bringing it up on “The Pat McAfee Show,” which airs on ESPN, though he did not name Cornett while discussing the unfounded gossip.
