We wouldn't have beaten Baylor this year (or last year with him at the helm for that matter). A Patterson team never would have pulled off that last second kick against BU this year. Did you notice the change in our short yardage dive play today? Patterson team would have still run those stupid goal line dives like those that failed against K State. I could go on and on. Yeah, yeah. He's great. But as of this very minute we're playing in the national championship game. Was never going to happen under Patterson. I am appreciative of what he did, but not sad one bit he's gone. There's a reason he's had no real interest in any available coaching jobs that came open this year. He can say he wasn't interested, but no one ever said they were going to money whip him to be their head coach or that they'd like to talk to him. UNLV is the only school he was even mentioned as possibly being a candidate for. Good luck with whatever it is you do from here on out gp, but I can't be more happy about where we are now.
