Talk about Bray all you want, but I don tunderstand why you guys are going after Patterson. He is by far the most talented player on the team if not the entire conference (maybe one of the most talented in the nation). He reminds me of Devin Hester except with better lateral cutting ability. Yes, he got a penalty or two for celebrating, but every Miami player used to get that and nobody cared...and Patterson is a genuinely nice kid, so he will grow out of that. He has never had the attitude problems that Bray had, and he has given his all for us. If you ask me, he has been one of the rare bright spots for us this season, and if he stays for next year, I am predicting Heisman talk for Patterson. We are lucky to have him.

I do not know Patterson as personally as you do, Dragon, so I must concede to your knowledge as to him being a good kid. Further, I think his taunting penalties were B.S. calls. I blame the officials for wanting air time more than I do him. The problem that I have with him is his inability to learn. Evidently, he has significant issues with learning patterns and his classes. The latter might not cost him money, but the former sure as heck will.
