Patterson made an interesting comment when asked when he would like a coach in place, his response was - I'd like to have one by Tuesday at noon... After listening to him he seems very calculated and I just found this as an interesting throw away line. Am I reading to much into this?

 
I think the point he was making... He wants to hire a new coach as soon as possible

 
Probably reading too much into it but everyone knows that Tuesday is always the big day.

 
You're reading far too much into it. This will play out over the next 7-10 days.

 
He was making a joke. And all these names already being tossed around are very doubtful since they are just now out lining the criteria for the new coach...jmo.

Remember the continuation of that comment? He just wants one soon.

 
seemed kinda obvious (to me, anyway) that he was making a joke about how it would just be ideal. But there was no indication that will be the case. Considering he went on about not even having figured out the criteria and that no one has really even thought about it beyond Mack's retirement, it would be awfully reckless looking to actually have a hire that quickly (even if we all know this process has been discussed at a much deeper level)

 
Thanks guy's form confirming what my wife tells me from time to time - I sometimes overthink things.

 
I thought it was in jest as well, but apparently others noticed Powers' reaction to the comment was unusual. Going to be an interesting next couple of days..

 
"I'm not a sports guy. That's not my background. He [Patterson] is the sports guy and will be making this hire." - Bill Powers

A bit of a paraphrase, but that quote is pretty damn close to what he said today.
