It's Patterson. If the kid wants to live there after his playing years are over and actually have a good job, there's a good chance it would be in the oil biz somehow.
Not that I think this is likely to be the deciding factor for any kid, but it isn't a horrible point. This tends to be the way that parents think, not the way that kids think.
Yeah, that was my point about the post. Everyone seems to forget the term "Student Athlete" because most don't get their degrees. For those who complete school there are opportunities outside of working for a used car dealership.

I don't this is the case. Les is graduating around 70% of our players - 2nd only to Vandy in the SEC (IIRC). No idea of how much a factor this would be in a recruit's thinking but it's certainly not a negative. Great work Les in this regard.
