2 DAYS TO KICKOFF: Darreyl Patterson

Projection: Redshirt

Darreyl Patterson (b. Aug. 6, 1995) is a promising young cornerback who almost certainly will redshirt after apparently nearly leaving the team early in August (if a certain tweet at that time can be believed).

Patterson played for Lawton High School under head coach Randy Breeze. He was regarded as the top cornerback prospect in the state of Oklahoma by Scout.com and the seventh-best player overall in the state by Rivals.com.

He led the Wolverines to an 11-2 record and a Class 6A-II runner-up finish as he made 21 tackles and two interceptions in limited time on defense, leading to his being ranked No.
