Former TCU coach Gary Patterson made another appearance on campus this week.

Patterson attended the Frogs’ practice on Wednesday afternoon, posing with the team for a photo afterward. TCU posted the photo to the football team’s Twitter account.

Patterson’s presence was welcomed by the players as left tackle Obinna Eze tweeted: “Love you @TCUCoachP.”

Patterson and TCU agreed to mutually part ways on Sunday afternoon. He showed up to work on Monday, though, to help his assistants with the game plan he prepared for Saturday’s game against Baylor.

Patterson is the school’s all-time winningest coach with a 181-79 career record.
