	It really chaps me when they make a list of the top undergrads expected to stay (or that they already know are staying), and they leave Patrick Patterson off the list. He's obviously as good or better than many on that list. The media doesn't pay him any attention. I think they may have to after next year, provided he gets healthy.

	Ignorant. Top 25 recruit coming out of high school, SEC co-freshman of the year, about 16 ppg and 8 rpg. I don't think he's on the list because there was no doubt after that year as to what his plans for next season are.

	agree. esp from a pro prospect standpoint. liggins (originally from chicago) and pat will be tough next year. i was really high on another team of cats last year (arizona) and they let me down big time, don't make it two years in a row.

	I believe that that list is guys who declared and I think Patrick did not declare so that's why he's off the list

	No doubt!~!~!~! i seen him play in high school with O.J. Mayo as a teammate and Patterson in my opinion was the best player on the floor. He was literally a man among boys. He played awesome last year for UK, and was their best player in my opinion and that was against solid SEC competition. He will be at the top of the draft list next year and will leave UK to cash in on his lottery status. I don't blame the kid, he will have plenty of money to go finish college and will make more than his degree will ever earn him. Wouldn't you cash in if given the oportunity??? Heck yes I would!~!~!~!

	I agree that he will be near the top of the board next year, but the scouts have probably not ignored him like the media. NBA scouts have a lot less bias than morons like Billy Packer and Dick Vitale. Many UK fans believe Pat Pat will stay 3-4 years because he has said several times that's part of his plan. Plus, his family seems to want him to stay, and he seems very patient. Also, his family isn't in financial trouble so there isn't that motivation either. On the other hand he would definitely come out towards the top if he improves at all next year, and I doub
