Hi, I'll be reviewing this GAN as part of the ongoing GAN backlog drive. --Vacant0 (talk) 08:51, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

Initial comments

 * There is unlikely any copyright violation in the article. Earwig's Copyvio Detector has reported only 29.6% in similarity.
 * There are no cleanup banners, such as those listed at WP:QF, in the article.
 * The article is stable. There has not been any edit warring since the article was created.
 * No previous GA reviews.

The rest of the review will be focused on the six GA criteria.

General comments

 * Prose, spelling, and grammar checking.
 * No problems were found in the lede.
 * No problems were found in the rest of the article.
 * Checking whether the article complies with MOS.
 * Infobox: Per MOS:NOBR, change the break tags to an unbulleted list using the first item

second item template.
 * Lede: The article currently stands at 27k bytes, per MOS:LEADLENGTH there should be at least one more paragraph to summarise the article. Citations are also not needed if the content is already present in the body of an article.
 * The article complies with the MOS:LAYOUT and MOS:WTW guidelines. There is no fiction and embedded lists within the article, so I am skipping MOS:WAF and MOS:EMBED.
 * Checking refs, verifiability, and whether there is original research.
 * References section (note and references split) with and  templates is present in the article.
 * No referencing issues.
 * Listed references are reliable, they are mostly news websites.
 * Ref 10 and 32 (The Roanoke Times) are subscription-locked. Change the URL access level to "subscription".
 * Add access date to Ref 42.
 * Birth date is not present in the body and is missing a reference.
 * Florida: "Patterson competed for the Florida Gators in the Southeastern Conference (SEC) as a senior in 2022." is unsourced.
 * Spotchecked Ref 1, 3, 4, 9, 10, 14, 20, 22, 26, 33, 35, 39, Ref 42–all verify the cited content except Ref 1 noted down below. AGF on other citations.
 * Ref 1 backs up the claim about his parents but there is no mention that he is "A native of Columbia, South Carolina".
 * Copyvio already checked.
 * Checking whether the article is broad in its coverage.
 * The article addresses the main aspects and stays focused on the topic.
 * Checking whether the article is presented from an NPOV standpoint.
 * The article meets the criteria and is written in encyclopedic language.
 * Checking whether the article is stable.
 * As noted in the initial comments, there has not been any edit warring or content dispute since the article was created.
 * Checking images.
 * There are no images in the article but it would be good to add one in the future.

Final comments
The issues that I've listed above can be fixed in only a few minutes so I'll leave it on hold for a week. Cheers, --Vacant0 (talk) 11:53, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
