After starting all 12 games at right guard for Ole Miss football during the 2017 season, Ole Miss senior Javon Patterson has been selected to represent the university at the Southeastern Conference Football Student-Athlete Leadership Council.
Amid a chaotic season, Patterson was the foundation for offensive coordinator Phil Longo’s offensive line that protected quarterbacks Shea Patterson and Jordan Ta’amu en route to the SEC’s top passing offense, averaging 328 yards per game in the air.
The council consists of one representative from each SEC institution, and Patterson is among the 14 student-athletes who will attend the annual meeting at SEC headquarters in Birmingham, Alabama, on Friday and Saturday.
