I agree with you. Hell, I want both of them to suit up for UT next year. It would be good to get Howard because he will be here longer since he is out of HS. Patterson would only be here for a year, two max. But if he's as good as they say, NFL might persuade him to leave.
If he is only here for one year then it is a definite win for us. If he shows out next year enough to go pro, then I am all about that! It would be great for him to be a first round talent and stay both years though...
