when i watched his film i could tell he wasnt 6'3. Looks to be the prerequisite size though...sort of reminds me of Balom's jr film.
I can see the comparisons but I think he’s a much better athlete/talent than Balom!

When I was in HS I was a very tall, dark handsome young man. I played sports, had the gift of gab like nobody's business. The girl's want to be with me (all the fine ones), because, as I said, I played football, basketball, baseball and excelled in all 3, not to mention I was gorgeous. Bo Nix' grandfather was my HS football coach. So one day my buddy says, "Bro, which one of the cheerleaders are you going to take to the prom? Well, I wasn't so great in the classroom but the teachers passed me (barely) so I could play sports. I ain't the greatest with the books but I made out OK. Thank you Lord. Long story short, I was about to fail this geometry class and I would not have been able to play, but this rather (uh hum) large girl said "I'll make sure you pass if you take me to prom." So I said to her, Nah, I won't take you to prom but I'll date you all the way up until prom". So I did. The school was in bewilderment but I kept up with my part of the deal. When it came prom time, I took the finest chick in the school. Sound familiar. That's what you call insanity.
I’ve read this fifteen times and it’s only been on the site 45 minutes.
 
Gotcha. I see what you’re saying. Hopefully that’s correct.
Yeah I totally see what you mean

You just gotta add in the fact that Mario doesn’t like to take commitments before all the conditions are right

And it doesn’t seem like that’s the case here so it’s awkward for Patterson and our coaches…at least that’s the vibe I get

I think it gets figured out… but man, the optics if he picks someone else? Watch out lol
 
I just wanna know how the large woman helped him pass his class? Was she taking his tests?

Did they not have tutors back in the day? 🤣

i think Balom injury may have zapped some of that. That wasnt a diss ive always been pretty high on Balom. Was happy he stayed to provide some safety depth.

I think we will see his athleticism at Heritage...he plays Chaminades group (good luck)...ST Johns out of dc first game, Gibbons that has good offense and Colton Heinrigh(te), Western, and tough Naples.... i didnt even add Glades Central who they also play.

Hes gonna face athletic groups every week of the szn except Hallandale in the last game.
Last year he may have face 3 teams that could challenge.

From Gaby's update today, Miami is not feeling very confident about landing Patterson. But part of this may be because his HS is basically forcing him to commit to a program prior to the season starting when in all reality, he's just not ready to make that decision.

Sounds like regardless of what school Patterson commits to over the next week, it'll be a soft commit at best and he'll be a flip candidate leading up to signing day.
Yikes. He was the one dude I felt super confident about despite whiffing on so many other big names...You'd think if he was feeling rushed he'd commit to Miami based on what all the insiders had been saying about his feelings towards UM?

Mom wants him in Miami but insists on taking visits = collecting mini bags & driving up the NIL price. He's following the 2023 Reuben Bain recruiting model.
If you had a kid in a similar situation, following this Mom's advice seems pretty smart to me.

I don’t worry about this stuff until it’s time to worry about this stuff

If Patterson signs with someone else in December I’ll be unhappy but he won’t
