Here is the latest update on Patrick Patterson. Bama is staying in close contact with him and he said that he is probably going to visit Alabama on Nov. 15th for the MSU game.

Gearing up for visits

	Quote:
	There have been a couple of coaching staffs who have witnessed Patterson's success the last few weeks. "Ole Miss came to see me play Louisville, and Alabama came and saw me play West Point." What about Alabama? "They are talking good to me. They are talking about lining me opposite of Julio Jones so we can create some mismatches. They will not be able to double team either one of us because the other one would always be open."

A fortunate team might have one "shut down" corner. With the guys we're offering, plus Julio, there's no way a team will have enough top-notch corners to shut our receiving corps down.

	Patterson will be attending the Alabama/Mississippi State game unofficially on Nov. 15. "Alabama has a great overall team," he said. "Coach Nick Saban has done a lot to turn them around. They are undefeated and they play in the SEC and that says something. "I think they'll be playing in the national championship," he said. "Coach Saban has guys that really believe in him and the team. Plus, they recruit really well so they'll be on top for a while. They told me that I could definitely compete early and give them another threat on offense."

Can y'all imagine if we could somehow pull the #1 WR from GA, AL, MS, and LA. Wow that would be crazy.

I've never even heard of something like that happening before. That would be amazing.

That would be simply incredible.

I know Patterson is the #1 WR in MS, Kelly is #1 in AL, and Randle is #1 in LA. But is Bowman really the #1 WR in GA?

the missing piece in the national championship bid is another big time receiver opposite julio. we just dont have one now, and it does allow teams to double team julio the whole game.

Most people I talk to here say yes. I hate to quote from the fish wrapper but here is what the AJC says:

Worth Noting

"Bowman committed to Alabama over LSU and Oregon. Bowman is considered by many to be the best receiver in Georgia. He is the younger brother of former Oklahoma State standout receiver Adarius Bowman who... is now a star receiver in the Canadian Football League".

RTR!
