Baylor Football picked up an absolutely massive commitment from Tenaha, TX linebacker Jeremy Patton today. HEavily pursued by the likes of Texas, LSU, and Michigan, Patton profiles as a pefect modern inside backer. Enough speed to go sideline to sideline with great size to play at ~230, Patton will be a playmaker who can be a plus athlete both defending the run and the pass.
Patton was the district MVP from the small Tenaha, and his film demonstrates that he was a do it all guy. He clearly profiles as an inside backer, but has played everything from linebacker, safety, WR, and RB for his high school.
