Had a dramatic impact in his first and only year as a Cowboy ... A three-year starter at Kansas who graduated with a year of eligibility remaining ... Played in 35 career games with the Jayhawks and earned first-team Academic All-Big 12 honors in 2010 and 2012.

2013 (Senior): Played in every game in his only year in Stillwater and started five times ... Became a crucial part of the OSU secondary, finishing tied for the team lead with nine pass breakups and 13th with 30 tackles and 28 solo stops ... Led all corners with four tackles for loss ... Made one of Oklahoma State's most memorable plays of the season when he picked up a fumble in the Baylor game and scored on a 78-yard return to put the Cowboys up 42-10 and seal the win over the No. 3 Bears ... Had an interception against West Virginia ... Credited with one forced fumble.

At Kansas: Started 32 games in three years for the Jayhawks, amassing 142 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss, 22 passes broken up and six interceptions ... Led the team with three interceptions and ranked second with eight passes broken up in 2012 ... His 58 tackles in 2012 were good for fourth on the team ... Returned an interception 54 yards for a touchdown against Northern Illinois in 2012 ... Ranked third on the team with 5.5 tackles for loss in 2010.

High School: A two-year letterwinner at Vista Ridge HS... Played cornerback and wide receiver... Earned all-district first team honors as a junior and a senior... As a senior he recorded 37 tackles, two pass breakups and two interceptions... On offense he had seven receptions for 113 yards and two scores... Blocked one punt and two field goals... As a junior he had 45 tackles, one interception, 11 passes broken up and forced one fumble... Also ran track and was a state qualifier... Earned academic all-district honors.

Personal: Son of Shaun and Todd Patmon... Has one brother and two sisters... Father played football at Central Oklahoma, while both grandfathers played college football (one at Oklahoma and one at Oklahoma State)... Two uncles also played football at Oklahoma... Would like to play in the NFL or run the family insurance business.

I kept hearing that Patmon was looking very good and they had better lock him up.

Broaddus on Patmon last week:

"Patmon is on the field this week as a tryout player and he is making a strong case to be signed to the training camp roster as soon as this camp is over. Whether it was the 7-on-7 or the team period, Patmon was outstanding. He didn’t give an inch in any of his opportunities and it started in the 7-on-7 when Chris Boyd tried to run a curl on him where Patmon arrived the exact same time as the ball and ripped it away from Boyd. Later in the drill, he comes off his coverage to drive on the ball thrown underneath to the tight end, knocking it away. Patmon had such a good afternoon that Monte Kiffin told a group of reports after practice, that he needed to learn his name because he was making plays like a “young Ronde Barber out there.” High praise for a guy just trying to get someone to notice him."

Seems a tad early for Monte Kiffin to be comparing Patmon to Ronde Barber -- guess the old fella just got carried away some.

What's it going to be then, eh?

The Dave Campo connection pays off in spades yet again.

his memory likely goes in and out, and he probably doesn't remember anyone in-between current players and when Barber played..."it's 2000 and what?"
