Offense dominates the college game today. High-flying passing attacks win games, but good defenses can be the great equalizer. Partner Strong with a quality offensive coordinator and you would have a dynamic one-two strategic punch in Austin.
Sometimes in life you need to jump on the bandwagon when something is on the way up, and Strong is a coach on the way up. His hire would be the kind of move that would create the kind of buzz a program like Texas is always looking for.
Before Strong took over the Louisville program they were docked three scholarships due to poor academics. Since then, Strong has graduated 93 of his 98 players, making the Cardinals one of the best programs at actually educating their athletes.
Motivating young college players can be a tough job. Strong’s players play hard for him, mostly because he’s known for his ability to connect to them.
Let’s face it, recruiting is about 90 percent of the game in college football. The team with the best players wins most of the time, and the coach that can recruit gets the best players. Strong has recruited exceptionally well at Louisville; just imagine how much talent he could get at a school like Texas.
