Patterson’s TCU success is rooted in hard work

Patterson said he’s never ruled out leaving TCU but the more BCS conference jobs he turns down, you get the feeling he isn’t going anywhere. Sure, coaching Texas or Oklahoma would be one thing. Everyone else? Probably not.

He may have been the only one who viewed TCU as a sleeping giant; but now that it’s awake, the potential here is clear. Nothing portends success in college athletics like proximity to talent. It can be overcome (see Nebraska), but if you have it, you’re always dangerous.
