I guess. I can't think of anyone he hasn't explicitly pissed off. Usually one kisses at least one ass. Hat tip to him for that.

Who else is out there? Lynn Hickey might be a decent hire.
Progress has been pretty slow outside of football. Facilities for bball especially a huge problem that seems to be in permanent limbo. Still Southland level in a lot of ways, but the move up was faster than expected.

Lynn Hickey would be a huge step up... Seriously.
She has done a great job, but she simply doesn't have the financial resources generated by alumni that even Texas State has. That's why you don't see much upgrades to facilities (except soccer/track which was paid for mostly by city/county).

Re: 2016 Texas Longhorns Recruiting Thread
Guys at Inside Texas have been discussing Patterson's ouster for a while, and they noted the qualities targeted in the next AD. Their booster source noted the following before this announcement even took place: "Instead of bringing in a guy that’s all bottom line oriented, the guy being talked about will be someone who can win the facility arms race, introduce a better game day atmosphere, and do things with uniforms and the like to improve recruiting."

Re: 2016 Texas Longhorns Recruiting Thread
The latest update from Scout says Fenves has given Patterson three options:
-reassignment
-take a one-year buyout of roughly $1.4 million
-possibly be fired with cause which would result in no buyout

How could you really reassign him at this point?

Lol they don't want to pay buyout and don't want to get sued by Patterson

I guess he and Mack could travel to Syria together to scout possible game locations

What would the cause be?
Losing to Notre Dame?

My guess is that's a nice way of saying "you're no longer welcome here."
They're not reassigning Patterson.

Lying about funding? He did that with the tennis facilities. It's probably not cause though.
It would be hilarious if they went to court over the buyout seeing as how that motherfucker has hung Wickline out to dry for two years.

Insubordination. Fenves has had multiple meetings with Patternson (I believe I read they had three recent meetings about) and corrective orders were apparently given which were not followed.

Re: 2016 Texas Longhorns Recruiting Thread
Patterson is a joke. He was the worst team president we've ever had.

Re: 2016 Texas Longhorns Recruiting Thread
Can someone explain the Mike Perrin hire? Was here involved with the AD in some way?
