Patterson Needs an Invite to the Championship game (on TCU dime)

[Wexahu]

In order for TCU and GP to eventually ‘make peace’, someone has to be the bigger man. Maybe it doesn’t mean TCU buying him tickets to the game, but GP should be there. It is worth inviting him at the very least.

I couldn’t care less whether they make peace or not.

 

[Wexahu]

I already said this but I’d like to see him on the sideline with the team for the last 2 minutes as we win the Natty. That will bring the Patterson era full circle and honor our former teams and players and bring us into the new era.

Good grief. The guy works for UT.

I know you must be very upset since Ohio st lost.

It is irreparable. He pissed off the wrong ppl and (on top of that) many boosters that had his back but wanted an amicable split—thus “to hell with him” comments on this board. He was holier than thou.

I was shocked he was allowed on the field for Senior Day.

Devastated.

@Moose Stuff and @Pharm Frog are both spot on and both cracking me up. To quote Moose, I 100% agree with both of them them.

Also, I love you Gary, I really do, but stay the hell away from this game.

But to be fair, Gary has said nothing in the last 5 weeks about the playoff. Or the championship game.

 

[Don Sanders]

How would anyone think that TCU owes him anything? They gave him the chance to be a Head Coach,
paid him Multitudes of Money and he ended up going to Texas! He can pay his own way, or the original
poster, can drive him to LA!

He literally congratulated us on our win the day of the game.

I am not on the inside but seems very obvious it got personal for some of those involved.

He was close to hitching a ride on a certain boosters wheels for the Fiesta in the Desert but reversed course.

We have some dumb scheissing boosters.

 

[Moose Stuff]

So you think Dykes and his new staff could have gone to most P5 schools and put that team in this national championship game in his first year; that what he inherited at TCU had nothing to do with this success? Dykes could pick up and leave with this staff and repeat this again next year at most schools? Saban would be impressed.

Dykes and his staff did an incredible job and he deservedly won Coach of the Year, but I think he gives Patterson some credit for what was in place.

Nope. scheiss Gary.

 

[Tommy Ladainian]

Gary walked out on these same young men, mid-season. Hard to forget that.

He deserves lots of respect & credit for what he did for our program.
We don't owe him anything.
Both of these things can be true at the same time.

 

[82 Frog Fever]

Wonderful idea, cause TCU needs every possible distraction.

 

[goldenfrog]

Surely you are trolling. I really hope so.

 

[goldenfrog]

No. No. A thousand times. No. What a ridiculous comment.

 

[frogfever]

It is foolish to get sentimental about an ex-employee. Particularly one that isn’t here because his ego wouldn’t allow him to step away from the pspotlight. Time heals all wounds. I don’t think too many people are still angry with Fran or Wacker. This season belongs to the current players and the current coaching staff. They are the ones that put in the work. We wouldn’t be where we are if Patterson was still the head coach. Save the sentimental distractions for the 10 year reunion.

 

[PurplFrawg]

Oh, I have the greatest respect for Wacker. Fran, on the other hand, can KMA.
