Like I said the UT job is going to crush Strong

First off his name is "Red." That in and of itself should say it all. Second, he is a 70+ year old Texan. What do you guys expect him to think about Strong's hire.
 
Lmao @Freek. We sweat some has been rapper and ex high school coach. This cat is a billionaire and has his name on buildings at UT. Cat has his jimmies rustled over the black guy. Winning cures all. He'll be all smiles when they wax Oklahoma.
 
I agree with the booster. I would have wanted a more accomplished coach.
 
Maybe we can get Nick Saban to come in and coach our DBs. If he proves himself, maybe we can promote him to DC in a few years. But, let's not get ahead of ourselves.

I think Red is what's called a "relic of the past". It doesn't sound like he fits well in 2014.

Can some of you stop with the adulation of Strong. We get it you like him because he's black. He's been average, based on his record, until TB stepped foot on campus and L'ville never finished higher than 22nd in recruiting rankings. The best team L'ville had beaten during his tenure was UF.
Texas got swindle and the booster has a point.

Just out of curiosity, why are people so confident in Strong? He had a great QB with an average supporting cast playing in one of the worst conferences while at Louisville. What gives?

Probably has something to do with that 36-9 drubbing we took at the hands of his team.

Big thrill, he beat the crap out of us. We beat the gator and thought we were back -- turned out the just suked worse than us. Strong will probably do well at UT. Bar is not that high-- one NC in like 30 or 40 years. This booster was Brown's buddy and did not want him fired. Would have complained about anybody other than Saban.
 
Strong out coached us in every area and then he poured on ,old school cane style. He is going to win big in Texas. He is a great defensive coach,just like Saban! They played with emotion and swagger,kinda like we used to(Pre-Shala)!!! We got raped!!!
 
He got lucky Bridgewater turned down Miami and LSU and decided to just walk on their team. Strong didn't even recruit him or develop him at all. Pure luck. He gets no credit for that. Or for fielding great defenses.

He's gonna have Texas with a top 10 defense a year or two after being there, and they'll all be lining up to kiss his Mandingo

Don't forget Strong's resume:

3 Bowl wins in 4 years at Louisville as HC... (including Florida, and us).
2009 Assistant head coach and DC on UF's title team (and his 2nd title with UF) that was one of best D's in country
Developed 7 first round picks and 18 picks in first 3 rounds while with Gators
Multiple nominee for top assistant coach award

Coached at Florida, Notre Dame, South Carolina

I'll trade

Yea his weak *** AAC defense pushed our **** in...and so did his Gators defense in 2008.
 
He is a beast recruiter. He should be locking down the state of Texas and hand picking whomever he wants for the next few years imo. It'll be interesting to see the Texas vs Texas A&M, Strong vs Sumlin recruiting battles

I could recruit Texas if I was head coach of UT. If he wins all is good ala Saban but if he doesn't fast this will go downhill fast.

Well he cherry picked some guys from down here coaching at Louisville... now he's going to be showing up in S FL high schools in texas orange...
