Said it's real hush huh on his end, if he knew he would have told me.. This comes from the Alford family...
Who is the Alford family?
This is from a 2010 article from Texas Monthly
More than anything else,<span style="font-weight: bold;"> Patterson’s success at TCU has been defined by his ability to recruit talent</span> and coach defense.</p>
As a recruiter, he employs a unique method to mine for players in
Texas, a state that represents perhaps the richest quarry of high school
talent in the country. To compete against recruiting gurus like Mack
Brown and Bob Stoops, he has developed a penchant for taking fast
offensive players and transforming them into fast but muscular defensive
players. Jerry Hughes serves as the most prominent example. A quick
running back at Fort Bend High School, he muscled up and developed into
an All-America defensive lineman at TCU and the Indianapolis Colts’
first round draft pick.</p>
“It’s not rocket science what we’ve done on recruiting,” Patterson
says. “In Texas, high school coaches play their best athletes at two
positions: quarterback and running back. So we look there first. If we
see some talent, we look for ways to get the kid on the field, and that
often means defense.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: bold;">College football experts have taken notice. “You can’t say enough
about the job Gary’s done at TCU,” says CBS Sports college football
analyst Archie Manning. “To have to recruit against Texas and OU and yet
your school isn’t even in a BCS conference? That’s a huge disadvantage.
Yet great players still come to TCU.”</p>

From a big money booster. It just seems like way too much money for OM to pay right off the bat.
for the new coach....1.2 for Nutt over the next five.....that's 4.7 mil per year minimum for the next five years.<div>
</div><div>Mack Brown makes 5.2; Saban 4.7; Stoops 4.6</div><div>
</div><div>No other coach in America makes over 4.0</div><div>
</div><div>So you're telling me OM is going to pay the equivalent of what the second highest paid coach in America makes.</div><div>
</div><div>One of two things happened here...or both. Sexton is the coaches agent and Boone brokered the deal. </div><div>
</div><div>I ain't buyin.....or maybe OM is just that stupid. </div><div>
</div><div>Edited to add....Patterson is making 3.0 now and just got accepted to the Big 12. That should boost his recruiting even more....plus he's currently a hero where he is. Yeah, let's leave that and jump into a division that currently has the top 3 teams in America in it to coach the worst team in the conference without an A.D. and who is going to have it's 4th coach in the last 8 or so years.</div>

3.5 mil for ANY coach new to a university is just damn stupid. Not just damn stupid, but Jerrell Powe stupid. Ole Miss has one huge *** crayon to pull that off.
U of Houston, and Baylor. Baylor is up a little right now, but he is not a big time, proven coach to demand that money. Also, Briles' personality comes across as a TX country boy, I'm not sure how it would play in the Grove.
Yeah I just dont see it happening. I heard it 2 days ago and just laughed it off. But, I do think it's weird that these same numbers are floating around from different people.
is the same thing I've been hearing. Have to use the extra ~ $10mil/yr from the Texas A&M/Mizzou expansion somehow.
That said, I'll be very unhappy if we don't take care of our best assistants this year. Do NOT let Wilson leave over money. Am I the only one that thinks all of our assistants got the shaft last year when Mullen was getting his big payday?

Rumors get around, especially in small towns of Mississippi. I am sure there is one source and then all the different people heard it from a person "in the know." It is always like this with any coaching search, remember Peterson to State during our search.
Planes don't leave Starkville, MS and Boise, ID and land in Denver within 30 minutes of each other and leave and return at the same time every day. They just don't.
You know, I never thought of that. You must be some kind of 17ng genius. He is usually right but I don't think he is with this one.
...when a coaching searching is afoot, you people post every ignorant lie that pops into your head.
Why is that?
Why is that?
Maybe about 75% or so. I think he's at about $2.1 at GT. Plus, he'd have a chance to move up to the SEC.<div>
</div><div>Not sure I'd want him though ... not too impressed with him at GT.</div>

This is the info I got from my Bear Buddy.. He is in the know... I have meet Alford, Boone and the Dickie and Zach in his box before... If he had a name, he wasn't giving it out yesterday.
to hurt your 17ing feelings. When you say stupid stuff, you get obvious responses. A rumor wouldn't be a rumor if several people haven't heard it, leading to "different people" with knowledge of it.
