Patterson, long a 2021 target for Nova who is ranked 29th in the class, will issue his top 10 schools on Saturday, he announced via Twitter.
It would be shocking if Nova isn't included in the list, but the announcement is particularly noteworthy because it had appeared Patterson would be taking his time with his decision. Granted, a top 10 doesn't put him on the cusp of a decision, but it does indicate that he has been working through the decision and is ready to take a step closer to making a choice. In addition, each list put out by a recruit adds a little bit of clarity to the landscape, giving us more clues into how things may play out.
