..... in 1989, Buster and Tywanna Patterson of Huntsville, West Virginia, gave birth to (I'm guessing) an enormous kid and named him Patrick. Their son would grow exponentially and become quite the basketball player. In 2007, Pat would named to the exclusive McDonald's All-American team. Luckily for everyone in Lexington, he chose a school over a coach, and committed to your University of Kentucky. Patterson is single-handedly responsible for exploding the blogosphere around Kentucky basketball, as his college choice was followed closely by two big time programs, Kentucky and Florida. From the moment he stepped foot on campus, Pat has carried himself as a man that any mother in Kentucky would be proud to have. He was the perfect rock for a basketball program that had lost its way behind an iffy ending to the Tubby Smith Era and the Billy Gillispie debacle. Thankfully, Pat stayed long enough (3 seasons) to earn his degree and see our program make a turn for the good. Happy 22nd big guy, something tells me you'll never pay for a drink in this city.
