Steve Patterson AD Arizona State...
Thought it would be Luck
He worked up in Oregon while Chip Kelly was there... just saying... :evilgrin:
I read the reason they didnt hire luck was because he wanted to fire mack and Patterson agreed to keep mack
I hope the first thing he does as the AD is fire Rick Barnes. That guy is awful.
I hope you are not seriousQuote:

I wonder what Mack's boyout would be, didn't he sign the equivalent of a life time contract after 2005? It has to be astronomical.Quote:

No one from the AD dept or related to Texas was in on the interview process. The consultation firm hired made the decision.Quote:

Thye should have fire Augie when he pulled that crap in the College World Series
Anybody hear that Patterson has turned down the AD job? Just read it on another message board and was just curious?
