Wronghorns might do well to just replace Sark with Patterson. Or bring him in as Defensive Coordinator. Maybe he didn’t want a full-time job and Sans-a-belt didn’t want him as a spokesmodel.
Incidentally, I work for a large University and I wish I could just bring my friends in as special assistants; instead they keep taking away our admin staff positions and make it difficult to hire research staff even when we have grant income to fund them. -end rant-
