I would not get too excited. Patterson was ranked 266th overall in the state of GA (coming out of HS) and didn’t appear in a single game last season with the Hilltoppers. The coaches said that while it is always sad to see a player go ... WKU’s secondary is deep talented up-and-comers, most of which figure to play significantly more than Patterson would have.

So he may not have any issues. Let's just look at him as a solid recruit at our level.

Zaire Jones, a 6-1, 190 pound Safety transfer from Vanderbilt has come in. 2 years of eligibility left. Was suspended twice while at Vandy. Talented kid but obviously some baggage. Should be an instant starter.

Kid can play, but assault on a police officer is nothing to sneeze at!  Yes it was downgraded, but not a good start.

UPDATE: Vanderbilt safety Zaire Jones’ assault charge was downgraded to a misdemeanor reckless endangerment on Sept. 10, ending his suspension at two games.

From what I heard he was driving around a blockade of some sort maybe construction and hit an off duty police officers knee on accident. Not a huge issue. Nice addition to the program.

Wow!  You know who he looks like to me as far as his build?


Someone guess to at least make this interesting.  I will give you a clue.
