Football:
A new pipeline state?
Gary Patterson has long been one of my favorite coaches in college football with the defensive mastermind carrying the TCU program through three conference changes and landing in the Big XII in 2012. Patterson has guided the Horned Frogs to six top-10 finishes and 11 double-digit win seasons as he heads into his 20th season as head football coach in Fort Worth. He’s a visor wearing football coach with some nerdy swagger.
Patterson is often at a recruiting disadvantage when it comes to attracting Texas high school talent thanks to the history, tradition and resources found at both Texas and Texas A&M.
