'19 TN LB Kane Patterson (Clemson commit)

[AstonRoyal]

I haven't seen him play but he looks slow in his picture.

lmao I don't know if that's what he meant unless I have a completely different (and inappropriate) interpretation

We did not notice Patterson much during day one of East team practices, but with 7-on-7 being a staple of day two’s events some of the deficiencies in Patterson’s game were highlighted. While even the biggest of linebackers on both squads showed the ability to play in space, Patterson struggled to stay with running backs and slot receivers through their routes. He was noticeably a step slower and left the middle of the field open for plays to be made by the opposition in 7-on-7.

Guess that Woody Wommack midstate bump doesn't help down here. Almost like Pruitt has an eye for these things.

Saw it at the HS games

To be fair, Tyler Byrd and Dillon Bates looked like all world performers. These events don’t carry much weight.

Sounds like he may have a lot in common with bates

And Byrd absolutely should be a All SEC corner/nickel

Had Botch not recruited Bates, and he'd gone...well anywhere else he would have been a first round draft choice at another position. Hell if he'd waited for Pruitt he'd have been better.

Hammy ... Botch ... Currie. The trifecta of TN athletic dumbassery.

Butch sucked. That said, that is not Bates' issue. He wouldn't go first round in any football draft.

I am no fan of Butch Jones but I hardly blame him that Bates stayed injured for 3 years.

Butch sure had a lot of players that stayed injured and I don't believe in coincidences.

Patterson and Bates are NOT the same type of LB.
Dillon could absolutely cover RBs and TEs. He was just soft.

This Patterson kid would not play over Crouch, Peterson or Banks! Jmo....

 

[The Dog]

I think Banks has mad potential as a LB, but don't u think u are jumping the gun a little. He's never played a snap at LB in college. Hell, he probably hasn't played a hundred snaps at RB in college. Now compared to Patterson, u may be right, but imo, there is no way to really know right now.

Since niether has played a snap in college at LB. And we're basing it off potential, then no...it is not jumping the gun imo...

We'll find out this spring

Could it be his lack of a decent S&C program?

So...Kane is not able?

 

[Sleegro]

So...Kane is not able?

Well no. They were obviously 2 different people. Don't think anyone ever said they weren't.

 

[therickbol]

So...Kane is not able?

But is he violent? Might even call him a killer?

 

[Russdaddy2027]

LOL , I gave you a like for the comedic value, but this nerd might surprise you if you take a swing!
