Strong to Texas

[BUBear]

So apparently he told his coaches today no decision has been made. Sounds like deja vu.

Some of them might not be making the move.

AAS reports that Strong had a 4-hour interview, after which he began calling select members of Mack's staff to see if they would stay.

@eViLGator: None of this makes sense. Will Muschamp is coach-in-waiting at Texas. He's still alive...it's his turn.

Wishful thinking for gators?:whistling:

Wrong forum for this discussion but that is ridiculous. I think somebody listens to Rush Limbaugh/Fox News too much.

You should get out in the world

Racism is alive in all races

Its just not confined to Anglo-Saxon Caucasians

We offered Strong $4 million per year. It had nothing to do with money. He didn't want to coach in the SEC and had understandable concerns over the disconnect between our academic administration and our athletic dept.

true on the $4mil. plus a chance to coach in the strongest conference in the country, with the largest recruiting budget in the country, and great facilities that are undergoing additional upgrades. there had to be a strong (no pun intended) disincentive and i suspect that the bolded part and its ramifications are what chased CS away. the party line is that the racism in knoxville was the deciding factor, but i'm not buying that.

charlie may sound dumb but if he in fact lands the texas gig he must actually be pretty sharp. or lucky. or both.

I see what you're doing LW, hoping Muskrat will get the hell out of Gainesville.

:lolabove: This gets a top 5 vote from me. This one is too good.

Yeah I've read that too but I will have to see it to believe it. The only way Golden would make a Lateral Move like that is if they break the bank for him.

Golden did play at PSU so that might factor into his choice.

 

[VOLnMiami]

OMG that has to be one of his absolute best!! lol: Man thats hilarious!

What a world we live in that a coach with one BSC bowl game appearance is offered $5 million/year.

Our last three got paid over 3 million without any

We're enablers. But Dooley "only" got paid $2 million.

I would argue that we do not have a disconnect between athletics and academics. Quite the contrary, as in the academic side has too much involvement in athletcs.

Louisville is moving to the ACC next season.

That's why he wants to leave, doesn't want to get exposed too badly, Texas is a way better program and easier to recruit than Louisville.

Oh my fuq, that is funny.

Yes that is a much better way to put it
