One of the more gifted collegiate players in the country ... at times demonstrates a great deal of technical ability for a player of his size ... is able to create space for himself with his dribbling ... has the ability to make opposing defenders look silly ... strong enough to hold off most defenders ... very good passer who demonstrates touch and accuracy … one of the best in the country at swinging in crosses from the left side ... has a very strong left foot, and can overpower opposing goalies from distance … can be an absolute enigma at times ... runs hot and cold, and there's almost no way to tell when you're going to get the good Pat Noonan, or the bad one ... does not appear to have have a great deal of athleticism, and may find it hard to separate himself from defenders on the next level … finishing comes and goes … looked like a potential star as a left-sided midfielder, but the Hoosiers opted to play him up top the last two years where he doesn't appear to be quite as effective … may lack the pure foot speed to play wide left in MLS ... we've heard him called everything from "a poor man's Brian Kamler" to "college soccer's Wolde Harris" to "a potential left-footed Ben Olsen" ... Noonan is thought to be considering a move to Europe, and may be a tough player for MLS to sign ... five years from now, it wouldn't surprise us to see Pat Noonan challenging for a spot on the National Team.  It also wouldn't surprise us to see Pat Noonan bouncing around the A-League.
