[QUOTE="3xWVUenginEER, post: 129351412, member: 1476506"] There is like $5.6 Million left on his contract. He looks pretty darn good for being in the crapper. If Steve Pederson can continue to gain employment, Steve Patterson has nothing to worry about. There will always be a dumb school like Pitt that will hire him and give him 7 figure$ annually. This is totally like he went Costanza off of Seinfeld and got fired with STYLE, but they still have to pay him for the remainder of his contract. There were a lot in BAMA who did not like Saban's change in the culture in year one and insult to the program in terms of facilities and way of doing things. Had Nick Saban not won big his 2nd season and beyond, they'd probably have shown him the door. Winning and success allows people to be jerks. Winning big allows people to be total A$$HOLES (look at Bill Belicheck with the Media). Texas just hadn't won enough for this Patterson's harsh treatment of the "legacy folks" & big boosters in Austin to fly. Keep in mind the big money people tried to hire Saban at least two times in two seasons. It may be like a head coach getting fired or let go from the Washington Redskins. Yeah in other words, who hasn't been and no real big deal. Again they owe him $5.6 MILLION. Why should he feel bad? BTW I wonder if they'll see about hiring Oliver Luck away from being the next NCAA President. He'd do well there. [/QUOTE]
