What are your thoughts on this piece?

The author, Skip Hollandsworth, is a TCU alum, which I wouldn't have guessed by reading the article. He admits to not recognizing Patterson when he showed up to a spring practice. He faults TCU for its lack of ESPN coverage without mentioning the MWC TV contracts. He says that Wisconsin should have won the Rose Bowl ... in a "blowout."
I'm glad the Texas Monthly finally allowed a big write-up on TCU's program but disappointed that the writer stuck with the TCU=stepchild script. Maybe five years ago, this tone would have been more appropriate, but now we're talking about one of the country's elite programs.
Anyone else agree?
