True. Willie has no patience for his career goals.

I 100% agree with this. 

 

But I mean he did go to Oregon after all those bowl wins, conference championships, and power 5 wins.

So we dont know who is coming over and even if they do, they could leave and Strong could be stuck with a tiny assistant pool in years 2 and 3? seems unwise...

Those guys might be back on contract here

Year 2 will absolutely be a step back...hopefully the fan base realizes this.  Even hoping that we have good backups to help fill in, you just don't lose talent like Flowers, Mack, and the Junkyard Dog (not to mention Adams who is gone after this year), and expect to stay at the same level.  I guess the only hope is that he helps make huge strides on the defensive side by then that might mitigate some of the offensive drop off.  I think year 3 is where we start to see how his recruits and "his" team truly starts looking.  

If Strong brings Gilbert and let's him do his thing we are going to be running some manifestation of the air raid offense...hopefully a more balanced version utilizing a mobile QB.  those offenses have proven to be effective fairly independent of personnel.

 

I'm really not concerned with the offenses future. of course I would expect some regression but like you say we have so much potential improvement on defense to offset that.

When do we expect to hear the movement among the assistants to and from USF?

I'm assuming that he is keeping a lot of his Texas staff.  Reason is, they said his Staff budget will go up after the buyout ends.

On a typical staff, the only assistants with multiple year contracts are the DC and OC, if any. They might have some guranteed money from Texas.

Our current offense is far from air raid... much more like a land siege. So to go to a heavy passing offense will take a lot of changes.

AUSTIN – When Charlie Strong hired his initial staff at Texas in 2014 all nine of his on-field assistant coaches had multi-year guaranteed contracts.

 

The Longhorns are also going to have to cover the guaranteed money owed to Strong’s assistant coaches, which is expected to approach nearly $7 million total.

Yikes. That's a cush deal for a lot of assistants.

Posting and working at the same time is a bad idea...

Seems our current assistants will all be out of a job.
