Yes. Yes he is. And he’s expected to play this week despite suffering an ankle injury early in the game against Texas Tech.
“Yeah, he’s our best player,” Patterson said Tuesday at his weekly press conference, asked if the lack of Hicks hurt the offense against Texas Tech. “I said that last week before we played. I think he’s our best player. Again, you have a guy that can be a wide receiver, he can motion out, he understands everything, he’s a great jump-cut guy, he’s got natural speed.”
Patterson suggested on Tuesday that we could see both Hill and Sawyer during Saturday’s game against Baylor.
