Caleb Patterson Signs with MO State

[Garland 22]

6'11 Center transfers from Colorado to Missouri State.

Former Rivals 3 star recruit.

Nice pick up for the Valley.

WOW....thats a pretty good pick up!

Patterson really struggled in limited minutes for a mediocre Colorado team... lifting weights and working on his game for a year while he awaits eligibility at Missouri State can only help him. 7-footers with some skills aren't easy to come by.

Here are a couple links with info about Patterson

He was a 2-star recruit out of a small school in Oklahoma (Ringwood HS- 100 students) and signed with Colorado over Lehigh, Navy, Rice, and Wichita State.--
