Can you tell us what the deal with Patterson is? He's barely on our radar until you make one short post in some thread, and now I don't think any of us has any idea what to think. Could you explain a bit?

Well, what I have been told is that Patterson played in a very small school that wasn't very good and thus was overlooked by the recruiting services. Then when he got to the US AA game he blew up and people realized how good he was. Tahj Boyd has rumored to be talking with him about going to school together. It shouldnt be a surprise to see where Boyd is going by this news. I believe Kelly was down in Patterson's area last week to make a visit and see what they can do.

Honestly, without Boyd we have no shot and with Boyd we have a slim shot. Word is he is a big momma's boy and doesn't really want to play that far from home. I dont think we have a good shot but you never know with Kelly recruiting him.

Mops, Speaking of Patterson, how do you think we will end up on signing day for wide outs?

Mops, thought I'd see Saladin on your evolution. Nice sig.

Scout.com doesn't have him as having an offer... have we offered him or not?

Not mops but my guess from all C4Q and other info is...

Diante Jackson
Tyrece Gaines
Markus Wheaton
Adam Hall (50/50 I'm feeling pretty good this guy though)
Rolando Jefferson (if he could but JUCO)

GO DUCKS!!

Well if this is true it sure doesnt make any sense. I really wonder if we have backed off because we we have someone else on board(Gaines maybe? hmmmm...)

Hey Mops! where is Herman Ho-Ching on your sig pic?? Nice Group of backs, I forgot how many great backs we've had in last few years. Next in line...Bryce Brown...
