I think Patterson will likely break records at Ole Miss. He has a Todd Marinovich nature to his up-bringing. He dad has basically raised him to be a QB...to the point of uprooting his entire family for greener football pastures. He is built to succeed. Moreover, if you are accurate on short throws in Freeze's offense, you are going to put up big numbers. That is Patterson. Bo Wallace will be managing a Wendy's in Pulaski this time next year and he owns the OM record book in passing over the #1 overall pick in 2004 and a future hall of famer in Eli Manning.

It is the system that makes many college QBs when the system meets the strengths of that particular young man. Freeze's system is perfect for Patterson.

At this juncture, he will start as a redshirt freshman, after sitting a year behind Kelly. He will be a four year starter IMO because there is not much a market in the NFL for spread offense QBs that are under 6'2". The numbers he will put up will be insane...especially with the WR talent around him.

all the fan talk about stars not mattering and trying to imply its fools gold it just stupid...looks at the perennial top 10 college football teams and then look at the perennial top rated recruiting classes...proof is in the pudding so to speak...

YES, lower rated players turn into stars and highly rated players don't pan out...SOMETIMES...by in large high ranked HS players are impact players players at the next level and make quality teams. Also, a couple underrated and a couple overrated players get you a team in the SEC with not enough depth to win consistantly.

Shea Patterson might not be much, he might be an all-american...but I'd rather sign a 6'2" 5 star than a 6'4" 3 star and see what happens every single year, arguing that point is just hoping for the best

Both sides of this are correct. Shea Patterson may or may not be a great QB at Ole Miss. But the thing he does bring is recruits. Several players have said they want to play with Patterson and with Ole Miss already having the #2 WR in the nation it is likely the Rebels with have a top 5 (if not #1) class in 2016.

You can argue that Patterson may be great or may flop but you cant argue what a huge impact he will have on the Rebels program even if he never plays a down.

I'm a State fan, but I really hope that, even if it is Ole Miss, one of them can prove that Ms college football can do something other than disappoint............until then................I say combine them and let's have a real team! U of M Bulldogs, and that will take care of the mascot debacle. When we win our first NC nobody will care what our colors are!! :D

The real question is who will be trying to hire his brother after this season to get his services. No secret that he wants to play where his brother is coaching that is why he is committed to ole miss.
