If an AD has to put together a committee to hire a coach, what does that say about him as a leader?

It's a cya on pattersons part. He has only been around a few weeks and this hire will define his success or failure for years to come. If he hires somebody and they shite the bed he is done. The committee would give him a little bit of leeway to say all these people agreed with him.

As far as waiting to announce a coach until January it might have to do with giving Mack Brown his swan song go out game against Oregon with no other distractions.

One other thing I heard on Austin radio that made me laugh my arse off today.

The host were saying win or lose against Oregon the team may carry Mack off on their shoulders. How embarrassing would it be if they carry Mack out of the alamo dome on there shoulders as he got his butt kicked by Oregon.

This. An AD needs to be able to hire a coach on his own. I get having a committee to hire an AD, but one of the biggest jobs of an AD is hiring coaches.
