For those who also went yesterday, What was up with that ladies first question??? That was bizarre. Coach Strong was off kilt after that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned to my wife that they need to get questions written down before hand and let Jim Lighthall, or someone, pick some out. No filters on live mikes.

Don't think we will see that format again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With lots of ranting about integrity of our players... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCS really doesn't seem to like, or isn't comfortable with, these type of events. Watched him while CBG took the stage first and his body language just made it appear that he really would rather be somewhere else - like on the practice field. Have to assume most coaches are like that .... but you really couldn't tell after he got up there he was that uncomfortable, though .... although he probably did wish to be somewhere else, somewhere with air conditioning.

Lighthall had a handful of questions on forms you could have filled out when you checked in. There was obviously a communication breakdown with CCS regarding that, even a couple of chairs set up on stage for them to sit while answering them. Would like to have seen CBG have a chance to answer any if there were some for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember back in 2011, I went to the USF vs. Louisville game in Louisville, and my buddy and I went to the Card Walk (or whatever the hell they call it) before the game, and Strong passed right by us. He looked so uncomfortable. He may be one of those guys who is just at his best when he's in a football atmosphere around young people. Nothing wrong with that. However, every job has elements that people don't like too much. Public events with fans may be that for CCS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think CCS is just one of those guys who looks a lot more uncomfortable than he really is. I remember It was hard finding a pic of him smiling back during his hiring process ....
