It boggles the mind how inept the Longhorns offense is......and always has been since he started there. The only Coach who might compete in offensive futility is Franklin from Penn State. Hard to watch.

[gummo]

Did you see that coksukker from Stanford today?

[teaserpleaser]

Strong = defense which is kind of funny right since they just flashed a highlight of Texas looking horrible in defense

[teaserpleaser]

Did you see that coksukker from Stanford today?

Yeah they looked slow as fukk ...going to be a long year I think can't wait until they play oregon,ucla,or usc

he just got there last year and the program was in horrible shape when he arrived. i'm not saying that Strong will the savior for Texas and i've questioned his "fit" with the UT program since the beginning, but he deserves at least 3 full seasons before an honest judgment can be made. he is known as a good recruiter (at least within SEC country), so we'll just have to see a couple more of his classes.

i think stanford as a team and jim harbaugh as a coach have been slowly coming down to earth since andrew luck left them both. could even argue harbaugh was winning with singletarys players and that went to shit after a couple years.

[jayfly]

you could argue that harbaugh won with singletarys players but you would be so incredibly wrong, team went to shit because the twin silver spoon ass ranger losers balke and york undermined him all year so they could fire him

[jjgold]

Texas is it embarrassment how did this program sink so low

[teaserpleaser]

Mack brown stopped getting the best kids in Texas...A&M,Baylor,tcu,smu all started to get good around that time and everybody else that dips in and takes kids from the state of Texas....but yeah I remember that shit Mack let the slippage start.

[tony_come]

Texas hired a black coach

they made all the players hate him too? he isnt missed one bit by one person in the entire organization. he is probably the overrated and overpaid coach going.

a good coach is usually hated by most of his players, they love the new guy though lol, they are going to love him all the way to a 6-10 record

yes, that's a fair assessment. in addition, due to increased television exposure for even mid-majors, other schools even outside of Texas are having better luck plucking talent from the state.

Strong will sink or swim at UT based on his ability to develop his recruiting dept. i know he has good connections in the South East, but to be a great recruiter within the state of Texas, it's very much a grass roots thing where you need to have super close relationships with all the top-level state high school programs. it's really quite tricky from everything i've read over time.

[jayfly]

Belichick, Knight, Lombardi. 3 of the greatest coaches of all time. How's that for a start?

For sure you hit it networking to be honest if I had to fix that mess I'd try and "blank check" coach Patterson @ Tcu he knows how to build a program, he did more with less he doesn't need top recruits and he has his texas recruiting pipelines "sorry charlie but we would like to keep you on as our defensive coordinator" same pay texas is good for it would have been fun to watch if they could land Saban...if Patterson turns it down coach briles from Baylor? Well respected in texas right the high school coach who made it big time... Both of those guys can fix Texas.

[BigDofBA]

Texas is getting worse.

I find it funny that the following QBs wanted to goto Texas and Texas didn't offer them

Andrew Luck
Johnny Manziel
RGIII
Jameis Winston
TJ Barrett

they already tried to poach both Briles and Patterson on numerous occasions over the last couple years when they were dragging their feet on firing Brown and after they finally did.

Todd Graham (ASU) is a native Texan and very close to UT's AD Steve Patterson (who came from ASU), but apparently there was a handshake agreement with ASU that he wouldn't bring Graham with him to UT. i'm not saying that Graham would be the right guy for UT, but there was some talk that the UT regents preferred him over Strong.

the concern from the beginning about Strong in Texas is that he would be viewed as an "outsider" to the old boy high school network there. guess only time will tell..

[texhooper]

Christ, high school.

Only in Texas

[gs]

Their o line and qb recruits have been busts for years now.

[CWD]

Belichick, Knight, Lombardi. 3 of the greatest coaches of all time. How's that for a start?

youre really scraping there, 2 not even modern era and one is a complete toss off any list

[shopbar picks]

As just a college football fan. By far Lane kiffiin is the worst. He gets out coached plain and simple bama wins on talent. Don't know why Saban stands for it. But as a life long husker fan Saban looked alot like Bo tonight. Glad he's home.

[tony_come]

Is strong black?

There's your answer

Have they asked Sumlin? He probably wouldn't leave A&M for that mess ....I don't know about graham he's good your offense will be good you'll need somebody for a defense though his defenses at Tulsa sucked and and I never thought he had a special unit at arizona st ...not sure he's right for a job like Texas he feels like a arizona school type of guy not to high profile if he fails you have another 2-3 wasted years after the time strong has wasted. It's the Texas job you'll be a God if you turn that around because we all know Texas shouldn't be behind Baylor,Texas Am,tcu. Does strong survive the red river rivalry game if they get their doors blown off by the sooners? Which is a Strong possibility ...sorry couldn't help myself. Gruden? Lame Kiffan? Anybody?

[gs]

Strong is still coaching Mack Brown qb recruits. Until he recruits his qb expect the same result. He may have set back the program even further back by losing the new mexico recruit to Michigan this pass summer. Texas going to suck for a couple years.

[teaserpleaser]

Then when they fire him or he steps down you'll have a few more classes until his replacement gets his kids for his system and he'll be using strongs's recruits....it's a mess that's why I say they can't whiff on this next coach.

[RavensFan2k3]

Texas hired a black coach

and?

[RavensFan2k3]

Is strong black?

There's your answer

Fuk you

[gs]

Who is the best black college coach in football now?

[gs]

NFL Steelers Tomlin

[gs]

College? Smulin, Strong, E. Carolina Coach?

[gs]

Franklin?

[jtoler]

Too many insecure people on this board.

[seaborneq]

Strong is not an offensive genius. Should not be the one ushering in the spread at Texas. He is a dead man walking
