Anyone remember him? I just watched the Miami-Houston 1990 game and he was big and fast. Did he just got lost in the shuffle at the RB position did he even play at Miami all 4 years?

I was just a little kid back then and didn't even know who he was till now?

BTW the OB was really loud that night and I miss have 8 DL rotations. Our second string DL back then is better then our first team DL now. When was the last time we had a really good DL 2006??

I think you mean Martin Patton, he got booted off the team with a guy by the name of Solomon Moore(IIRC) for a credit card scam late in that 91 season. Transferred to like Texas A-I, drafted late in the NFL( Pats, I think)
 
Patton and Froggy Shipman are two players that could have had great careers at UM is they kept out of trouble and went to class.
 
Man, that credit card scam and the grant scandal really fried out 'taters.

Ripped the guts out of our team.

Patton was a shifty guy, really elusive with good speed. Could really catch the ball out of the backfield, too.
