NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Maybe now his teammates will recognize him and the feed the ball to him in the post.

Is Patterson’s haircut related to the discovery of this? I’d say it’s at least worth investigating.

Rumor has it that piece of lint present at the UNC game is still there.
November 20th, 2008 at 4:41 pm
He needs to glue it to Porter’s bean bag…then maybe he’ll start playing ball like a man.
November 20th, 2008 at 4:43 pm
2–Brilliant. That’s better than my “Say it ain’t so, ‘fro!”
5–I am simultaneously laughing and trying desperately to get that image out of my head.
November 20th, 2008 at 4:44 pm
5) The visual of Porter’s coinpurse with a huge black fro will forever be etched into my mind. And thank you for that. I shall now schedule my lobotomy.
November 20th, 2008 at 4:46 pm
5,7–Imagine how much bigger his pantaloons would have to be.
November 20th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
7) That is a pretty haunting image, my apologies.
November 20th, 2008 at 4:48 pm
GAWD DAMNIT!
November 20th, 2008 at 4:49 pm
Hopefully, thats the reason he almost missed the stuff in the UNC game. Restricts air-flow!
November 20th, 2008 at 4:49 pm
Great, now Tipton and the Herald Leader staff can write 13 more stories on his hair.
Don’t forget he is old School.

3) Check out the dirt under those fingernails. I bet there are potatoes growin
under them nails.
November 20th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
now maybe the whole team will be inspired to cut those damn long ass retarded shorts. seriously they look like crap and it cant be easy to run in them.
November 20th, 2008 at 4:59 pm
I don’t care what he does with his hair. I’m just glad he’s a cat. When this team gets it together this year(and they will), the North Carolina’s, and the Louisville’s won’t be so anxious to get on the floor with them as I’m sure they are now.
November 20th, 2008 at 5:01 pm
Great he will look more respectful when he eats his boogers on National TV.
November 20th, 2008 at 5:10 pm
I used to love it when Junior Braddy would shave everyone’s head in solidarity before the SEC tourney. It always signalled it was time for winning to start.
November 20th, 2008 at 5:12 pm
14- You just made me realize why Porter is having trouble running the point, his shorts are so long and baggy that he can’t dribble the ball between his legs without the ball getting caught in the insanely baggy shorts. Yet another reason for them to go.
November 20th, 2008 at 5:13 pm
So much for fearing the fro.
November 20th, 2008 at 5:19 pm
i knew he would. i said during the game he is going to blame the fro and make the change.

What the heck? Espn despises us…How in the world does Kentucky not have a top 25 recruiting class next year? Orton alone should give us a spot….

I just spoke to a source that will go unnamed who said Patterson never intended to grow the afro to begin with. The afro grew due to a condition called hypertrichosis which is a medical term referring to a condition of excessive body hair. Hypertrichosis can affect most of the torso and limbs, or can be localized to a specific area. In this case it was localized and only affected the scalp.
Hypertrichosis primarily results from genetic factors and only occurs for 1 out of 10 billion people. Only 19 people alive today have hypertrichosis including Patrick Patterson, Mark Coury, Alex Legiion and Derrick Jasper. Although it’s generally caused by genetic factors there is speculation mounting that other causes could be excessive running, early Midnight Madness, being near someone who sends a large amount of text messages and/or being near someone who recruits players before their sophomore year in high school. While there isn’t yet definitive proof factors outside of genetics causes this, one has to wonder how 4 of the 19 people who have the disease have all played for Billy Gillispie(who likes women and beer according to some) in the last year.
Sincerely,
Jerry Tipton

I also knew this was coming. He couldn’t grow it out forever anyway but I was guessing there would be a superstition factor with the two losses and two subpar games for patty cakes. Plus, he just doesn’t fit the thug baller profile that comes with the fro (no offense Ben Wallace).
November 20th, 2008 at 6:29 pm
A clean cut fro doesn’t look thug. A buckwild Ben Wallace fro looks thug.
November 20th, 2008 at 7:21 pm
like i said cut the fro and the game will flow!
November 20th, 2008 at 7:35 pm
Is UK going to auction off the curly locks? haha
November 20th, 2008 at 8:20 pm
It sounds like to me that Mr. Patterson is about to open up a can of whoopass. It’s personal now.
November 20th, 2008 at 8:49 pm
Okay…we can start winning now.
November 20th, 2008 at 9:05 pm
14, I agree…the shorts are way too long in my opinion. I’d figure they would get on your nerves.
November 20th, 2008 at 9:20 pm
# 21 I agree ESPN doesn’t like us, but seriously Orton and Hood are good players but that’s just two ball players seriously. I don’t care what you say about GJ we need a 5 or 4 star TRUE point guard, not an unheard of 3, i guarantee if he was going to U of Smell we would say he sucks. i mean its UK we’re talking here I’m tired of getting a few good guys every class i want what UNC gets every year or at least close to it.They are going to pass us on wins and it all starts with recruiting.
get to work billy…
November 20th, 2008 at 9:21 pm
30. Get a f’n clue.
November 20th, 2008 at 9:41 pm
Probably a good change
November 20th, 2008 at 10:47 pm
P-Pat grew a fro’
and we were worse than b fo
but the fro is no mo
and now we won’t blow
Look for the Cats and P-Pat to have a breakout game against the almighty Delaware State.
November 20th, 2008 at 11:13 pm
#33) word. Liggins, Miller, P-Pat and Stevenson dominate the game. Even Porter will make the fans think he’s got a chance in the SEC after he drops in his breakout game against Delaware State.

fuzzyzeller what would you know.
November 21st, 2008 at 9:29 am
My brother say Harrelson picks for porter will work…hmm, maybe so.
