Thirteen and a half months after former TCU Horned Frogs head coach Gary Patterson was seen with his former boss, Texas Longhorns athletics director Chris Del Conte, in a suit at a basketball game, all but confirming his hire as special assistant to head coach Steve Sarkisian, Patterson told Horns247 on Thursday that he’s stepping down from the role.
The Dallas Morning News confirmed the news with Patterson.
“I’m so appreciative of Steve Sarkisian, the players and fans for my time at Texas this past year,” Patterson said.
