September 16, 201511 yr So what is the reason behind the AD's firing? I would think his two hires for their two major sports had something to do with it. Apparently he has managed to pretty much tick off every booster they have and has no allies within the university.
September 16, 201511 yr Author No he shouldn't. I'd bet as a percentage of revenue brought in Tom's salary is near the top. The game is money. Yes, winning helps bring in money. UL's women's soccer program or LAX program being really good is nice but it isn't bringing in money. Texas lost one of their biggest boosters who didn't renew their luxury suite. That caught someone's attention. But Patterson is relatively new to the position, I'm sure he wasn't maxed out when he was just hired.

September 16, 201511 yr Patterson was given an offer of one year of pay or risk being fired for cause. He chose the one year salary. School president interviewed Charlie and Chaka a few weeks ago about Patterson and did not like what he heard. Oliver Luck is being mentioned as a candidate.

September 16, 201511 yr Who is Oliver Luck and what is @gametime happy about it? :lol2: Andrew Luck's dad....
September 16, 201511 yr Andrew Luck's dad.... Ok, thanks, but what are his qualifications to be an AD? And still wondering why GT seems to be happy about the possibility of Texas hiring him.

September 16, 201511 yr Someone said on the radio this morning that if Jurich did leave, it would at least be funny if he went to Texas and fired Charlie. :lol2:
September 16, 201511 yr No mention of Mack Brown? He's been mentioned as one of the first candidates.
September 16, 201511 yr Google is your friend....Oliver Luck Thanks again. Couldn't find anything on Google about GT liking the possibility though. :lol2:
