	The latest on Mississippi wide receiver Pat Patterson is that he has dropped both Alabama and LSU from consideration, or more precisely, they dropped him. Patterson said he hasn't really heard from either one in a while, and now Tennessee is in the mix, though it still seems like he is Ole Miss bound. Either way, though, I think it's interesting that we've pretty much stopped recruiting him. Now that it seems like Chad Bumphis will probably end up at Mississippi State, that really narrows down our wide receiver board to a handful of guys: Rueben Randle, Kendall Kelly, and Marsalis Teague. I really don't think we'll get Teague, so that really leaves only Randle and Kelly still on the board. Many were thinking that we would take two more wide receivers, and if so then that must mean we feel great about our chances with Randle, or we're perhaps going to be content with taking only one more wide receiver in this class. Either way, the wide receiver board is shaping up. Norwood has committed to Alabama, Patterson is out of the picture, and Bumphis will probably end up at Mississippi State. Things are starting to at least make a bit of sense now.

Rodney Orr thinks we are the leader for Bumphis. From what I gathered I thought he was MSU bound as well. But he has mentioned he thinks even after the hire it is 60/40 Bama. Supposedly Bumphis' mom loved Sly so she that will play into the decision. We shall she. Though I would black out from excitement if we finshed with Randle, Kelly, Norwood, and Bowman as our WR class.
