Sleeper of the Class?

The picture of the puppy is really just in the interest of increasing our female readership.

If you listened to Patterson's Signing Day press conference on KTCU, you were treated to a lot of vague coach-speak. But if there was one player who GP was outwardly excited about joining his team, it was the least-hyped member of the class- 6'4" 315lb Farmersville offensive lineman Michael Thompson. While Thompson's profile on rivals says that TCU was his only scholarship offer, Patterson said he was very sought-after by a number of schools, but they didn't want to admit it since Thompson committed to the Frogs early and was firm in his choice from the get-go. Thompson, who was a stand-out center and defensive tackle for the Farmers as well as handling field-goal kicking duties, already benches over 400 and squats over 600 while running a 4.9 forty.

"I wouldn't trade him for any center signing with any other school in the country today." -GP
