Think Strong can talk a FL kid from going to chilly OR and he has Dungy's kid as an example for his discussion with the players Mom.

Even if they fired said coach? Seems pretty ****** to me. A lot of kids go to a program for the coach and not the university. 

Yeah but we are talking U. of TX.  It's a dream school for TX kids.

Yes, but it ain't Tampa.

Have lived 30 miles north of Austin for 9.5 yrs.  I would trade Austin for Tampa in a blink of an eye. Mostly for Bulls games, Publix deli and Brocado's cuban sammies and devil crabs.

Austin is a good place to live though. Has great breakfast tacos, TXMex and BBQ but prop taxes are outrageous and traffic is some of the worst in the country. I miss the the Gulf waters and beach.  TX beaches are not nice. 

While Charlie's time at TX is suspect he did have major QB issues every yr. Some of the Ds problems were the lack O and quick scoring instead of sustained drives.

If we hire a FCS Coach we should fire Harlan immediately.

Hopefully CS will come.  I think he'll be expensive but he will stablize recruiting immediately.  I think it will cost over $2M a year to get him. 

However looking outside of the box should never NOT be an option.  One of those guys (Keeler) has big time FCS playoff experience and recruits the JUCOs very very well.  Remove Q from the USF squad and Sam Houston State would take USF to the wire in a straight up game.  The other guy is young and turned a perrenial whipping dog into a consistent FCS playoff contender. And better these guys than Schiano.

Both of them will keep USF bowl eligible for the terms of thier first 3 yr contract.  By the way the cupboards are not that full at USF especially on the D.  After Q and Mack are history bowl eligibility will be a struggle unless USF gets some 3-4 star football recruits that play like 3-4 star football players.

Real world adulting...has its down side. 

These two FCS HCs should get a look...

KC Keeler at Sam Houston State

and

Jamey Chadwell at Charleston Southern

C. Strong would stablize recruits immediately.

so with oregon's buyout of thier prior coach and willies salary, they're paying 27.6 million to have him as a coach

That's crazy!  Willie musta "stuck the landing" in the interview.

$3.2MM...Isn't that about a 75-90% raise?  He was probably getting a $750K-$1.0M annual raise from USF after he won the bowl game.  The attendance thingie is playing a minor part of this decision.  I hope Leavitt's CO D destroys his OR O.

Yup. We are now officially a stepping-stone school.

How do you think Houston fans feel?  Thier last two coaches are at UT and TAMU.  Navy should really appreciate thier HC.

While outside the box, this plan has my full endorsement.

But CJL's time has passed.  He can no longer "relate" to our players. 

First line yes  Second line why not?  CO players seem to be relating.

My vote is for Strong.

Would be a good hire but he'did be gone in 2-3 yrs.

fug...it's just kinda surreal.  I didn't really believe CWT was qualified for a top 20 job.  I'm thinking most OR fans will be a bit pessimistic about the hire.  

Here's another coach to consider is the WY HC.  He came from NDSU and has WY bowl eligible.

Just to see reaction...How about giving Major Applewhite a shot at HC?  

Poor showing vs FSU and no conference title, no vic vs a true top 25 teams vs 10-2.  Not enuff for the Ducks?

Another thing...VR seating is coming. Just you wait and see.

Hate this all you want but this is the bottom line.

Play big boy football vs big time opponents and attendance will jump by 10k even if we are bad and double if we are good. 

Only if the Bulls win those games vs rankd P5 schools and stay in the top 25...

Well he did just move it a brand new custom built home. You do that when you are expecting to be around for a few years like at least 4-5. Just sayin'.

Urban Meyer did go from BGSU to Utah then FL and the his dream job. So maybe Cinnci is a good choice for the WMU HC.

Possibly. But if he's dancing around with Oregon, he might decide to wait it out a year and see who else comes calling from the P5.

That wood be a mistake.  He hasta get his payday now.  Undefeated seasons are just to rare.  Big Ten job would be perfect  for a WMU HC.

Responsible for 56 plays of 20 yards or more. That's a heck of a stat for the offense as a whole.

Daaaaammmmnnn!
