Rumors around FW are that he has connections with 3 or 4 TCU alum that haven given him shares of their claim to the Barnett Shale as long as he is the hc at TCU. These claims are worth in the 20-30 million dollar range for Patterson. It's all rumor but it make sense why he hes stayed so long.

Again...Rumors




I've heard rumors that some Wal-Mart and Tyson Executives are going to buy The Barnett Shale and give Patterson half of all it produces as long as he is at Arkansas. Estimated to be a couple of billion.

IMO Gary Patterson is Jim Grobe v2.0

He will be forgotten in mediocrity for the next few seasons and this is a fact. He may be a hot commodity right now but Arkansas>>>>> TCU always has been always will be so his statements obviously say I am interested.

I like their chances better than aTm getting there in the SEC.


A&M is SOOOO much closer than TCU has been since...well 1938. He made 3.7 mill last year based on almost a cool mill in bonuses. His base is around 2.7 mill. Most any SEC school could EASILY put him over 4.

Thought I would just leave this here.

Arkansas

John L. Smith status: Done

Likely candidates: Gary Patterson. We wrote last month that we were hearing AD Jeff Long was strong on Patterson and now that story is only growing louder. Check the web and you’ll quickly find that Patterson is building a house in the Fort Worth area, but if he sees Arkansas as a better and better-paying situation than the one he’s got at TCU, you can forget the house thing. He can afford to build a bigger house in Fayetteville if need be. We’ve been told “this one is all but done.” Negotiations can always blow up and deals can always fall through. We know that. But if there’s no fire with the Patterson-to-Arkansas talk, then Long has put out one of the best smokescreens ever. Patterson said today of the Arkansas rumors: “I don’t think there’s anything to that.” How’s that for a non-denial denial? Tommy Tuberville — an Arkansas native — is also interested in the Razorback job. Very interested.

I agree. He single handedly got TCU relevant. They pay him plenty. Arkansas isn't a big enough jump. Unless a blue blood comes calling, and TCU is crumbling, he ain't going anywhere.
