Question on UT's Patterson

[Toad Jones]

The way I understood it, Gary was to help with the defense as an associate to the DC and the head coach. (pay $150,000.) I've always heard that title enables youn a seat in the teams press box. Also heard no help with recruiting etc. But yet on the side line w/ Texas their is Gary pracing up and down the side line with a clip board. Doing you know, the old coach walk and so forth.

If the towel girl was with him, what in the world...

A tough position for their true defensive co. What happened to my job, he asks. Do I even hv a JOB??

I suspect he is more than just a "consultant" at this point in terms of his value to them. I must say, I was a bit surprised to see him running up and down the sidelines as if he were in charge. Maybe old habits die hard, but the optics on this makes one wonder.

Poor ole Gary, he just can't seem to let the water run off his back. He needs to be "seen." TCU's rejection wasn't what ANYBODY wanted - I know it was hard to take, but making a fool of oneself deserves pity.

Did anyone else see Patterson's tweet after OU victory, saying something about "his D"s " performance?

I think you’re way off.
Right now, Texas is darn glad they have him. His stock may not be high in Ft.W., but it is increasing in Austin every week.

Yep..if Sark continues to stumble, they have a good interm'e ready to step in tomorrow. I cannot tell you how much Gary would jump at that!!!

You can tell me...I'm a doctor.

It appears that these so-called analysts are really additional assistant coaches on staff. Not sure if UT really knows how to gel all of them productively like Saban does though.

Who knows with GP. He did after all show up at TCU to help with the game plan after he was fired.

That was a parody acct. Decent material.

the analyst job is the perfect one for gary because when things go well the media showers praise on him like the bama game and wvu last week though most of that was dropped passes by the neer's receivers and when things go bad like in lubbock the fanbase turns on sark and pete

Right now, GP lives in a rubber room, he can’t get hurt.
They‘ll be ready to make him DC when UT (aka: Gary’s Defense) nearly shuts out an offense-less OU without Gabriel.

My UT friends have coveted the chance to have CGP has their head coach. They all seemed to think UT would money whip to get him. Nothing has changed - they’d take him as head coach in a heart beat. I still think he has a Natl Championship in him somewhere else.

Some UTx fans coveted CGP after the TCU Rose Bowl victory.

UTx ain't hiring a fired coach from anywhere except after a Saban School retread. And the coach they hired last time may close that door just like Fran closed the door at Alabama for winning TCU coaches.

Wow, I’m not there.
I agree with Eight on that. If GP is elevated at UT things are going south in a hurry.
GP as a HC or even DC is a disaster waiting to happen.

We’ll see about that. Del Conti is the boss and they’re buds.
