Patterson Accepts The AD Position

McPhaul, do you have time to give us your thoughts on the hire? From a high level perspective, as well as on the details about the coaching situation?

 
I'm shocked.

Can tell you as soon as last night, folks at WVU was saying goodbye to Ollie.

Something had to happen.

 
How does the affect things moving forward? Is Mack still out?
According to the mods on OB and Cujo, the Patterson hire all but ends the Mack Brown era at the end of the year if the reports are true.

 
Im sure Crossfire will be even more interesting. Can start by explaining what went wrong with Luck.

Credible? (Not calling you out, I really dont know enough about who the hell is a mod over there)

 
Yes, something happened. very similar to the Gary Barnett & Mack Brown deal.

Patterson is closer to Saban than Oliver was.

Saban is irrelevant to this process.

It's an inverse relationship anyway. The more it's talked about, the less likely it's a realistic outcome.

 
Have read that Dodds preferred Patterson vs Luck. I worry that this allows Mack one more year as several sites indicated Luck wanted assurances Mack would be out after this season. Hopefully Patterson didn't cave on this, but have read Patterson would allow Mack a farewell tour in 2014. Have also read when Patterson was the Rockets GM he tried to trade Olajuwon just prior to the Rockets Championship run in the mid 90's.
