That has already been addressed...he is making JJ type money.


No he is not.

yeah it'll be becasue of the ridiculous travel schedule in the MWC


Once you get on a plane, does it really matter if you fly for 1:20 or 2:20? And who doesn't enjoy Laramie in late October??? :D

Yeah, Patterson is so old that those FIVE airplane trips a year just wear him down. Can't imagine how he's borne up under that strain this long. If he were only in ConfUSA he would only have to go to West Virginia, East Carolina, Central Florida, Alabama, Memphis, etc, etc. Oh, the humanity!

If only you could actually fly to Laramie without having to hire the services of a crop duster or a skydiving unit

Except for a trip to Orlando (and Annapolis for a non-CUSA game), the furthest we traveled was to New Orleans.
GO MUSTANGS!

Trust me...he is.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

El Paso is actually a bit farther than New Orleans.
