"Strong also struggled to get support from Patterson. After his first season at UT, Strong asked for increased salaries for his eight analysts, who were among the lowest-paid in the Big 12. Strong wanted to increase their salaries from $24,000 to $50,000, which is $5,000 more than what Kansas is paying its analysts, who are support staff members whose duties include scouting opponents and breaking down film of practices and games. Patterson turned down Strong's request. Six of the eight analysts left for other jobs.

Before last season's game against UCLA, Strong requested a van to transport coaches' wives and children to AT&T Stadium in Arlington. Patterson turned down his request. In another controversial decision, Patterson ended the policy of offering coaches and other athletic department employees free meals at the team's dining hall. Coaches liked to eat at the training table to socialize with their players, but Patterson instituted a new policy that offered coaches 30 free meals per year and charged them $10 for each additional meal."
