a poster on a TCU site made the following arguments why Patterson should not make the jump to Auburn. How would you rebut these arguments?
OK here is my case for Gary Patterson to stay at TCU
  • TCU is Gary Patterson's Program
    • Legacy
    • Legacy
    • Legacy
    • Bobby Bowden
  • New Facilities
    • Stadium Refurb Coming
    • New athletic facilities
  • Top 10 Program without BCS Pressure
    • He gets 2 years to turn Auburn around
    • TCU is a legit top 10 program
  • Auburn?
    • He didnt jump on Tennessee
    • Not even close to a top 10 program
    • Gary already has to recruit against Texas
      • Why laterally transfer?
      • Auburn is TAMU to Alabamas UT
      • SEC is a great conf, but...
      • TCU is much closer to being a legitimate BCS Team every year
    • Auburn will never be Alabama
    • LSU, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee
    • 4th or 5th every year?
    • A decade to do what he has done at TCU
  • Bowl Win brings first solid top 10 finish in decades
So, why does Gary Patterson jump ship for a mid level SEC school? I dont see it, he is on the cusp of greatness at TCU.

BSU, with or without Fresno St makes MWC a BCS conference in a few years, that is if we dont already have a playoff system before 2014.

With the fall of the PAC-10 and Big-10, MWC slots in behind the Big 12 and SEC as on of the top 3 conferences.

Unless a Notre Dame or USC comes calling I cant see a real step up for Gary.

Why leave a school that YOU built the program? Coach Fran got it rolling, but Patterson is the Coach that will have things names after him.

...is that this poster, and anyone like him, who believes that going from TCU to Auburn is a lateral move is truly a retard, and everything else he brings up for an argument is automatically dismissed due to stupidity.

  • TCU is Gary Patterson's Program <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);">- can't argue that point</span>

was that the TCU program was something that he built up himself. Saying that Auburn will never be an Alabama... makes me wonder how much of Auburn does he really know. Especially in the past what...8 years? Also...when was the last time that TCU had a bowl bid? Hmm....never? Yea...that sounds about right. But other than that, his reasoning is flawless... I can't see any other reason why Patterson would go to a "middle of the pack" SEC team....

That dude is moron. I would love to be a top 10 non bcs program, come on. Hell you might as well be D-1AA because theres no chance in hell you are going to play for a national title. That is what gets me about all these Mtn. West and Wac schools. Their fans are so stupid to face the fact that only one school may get a chance to play in BCS bowl if they go undefeated and yet they can not realize why their coach may want to leave for more money and a bigger program.</p>
