They have deep pockets, too. Well, deeper than most P5 schools. It's going to absolutely come down to how loyal CCS feels about USF. With just a one-year stint where he didn't build anything and it will be a rebuild year next season, I don't know the answer. If it were me, I'd never leave USF. Absolute ZERO would be my guess 3 hours ago, Blackice12 said: I believe due to his contract CCS will stay atleast one more year. Remember Texas is still paying the majority of his salary around $4.5M. (This is no different than Skip Holtz going to LA Tech after USF) I highly doubt he cares where is $5mil comes from.

If he leave's after this season, I don't think it would be for money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are no fun, but I'd rather have the latter than the former. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCS and everyone else has it to one group, your family. Go Bulls! Sure, but it depends on how you define family. I kid people that I've been adopted not hired, and it's only half a joke. Money wouldn't be enough to make me leave someone in the lurch, it'd have to be something more than money (challenge, uniqueness, diversity, etc) But then, I hardly represent the average under the normal curve, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We dont really know what we have next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not the most important thing in the lives of some. No, it's not but $5M goes a lot further in MS than it does in FL. Quality of life? Well, Houston and Atlanta are short hops by air (and New Orleans isn't too far by car), and I'm sure an SEC school will make a private jet available for his family's personal use if that's what they want. I suspect if Strong stays it will be his wife not wanting to leave Tampa-and again, that argument can be pushed away if a private jet or free flights are available. I just hope that if CCS gets hired away we don't go after another retread like Butch Jones. With an IPF (and more to come) in place there will be some good options from CUSA and the Sun Belt. Butch Davis has done the difficult and turned FIU around (and this guy was gunning for the USF job-perhaps people will listen now?). I also like the job Neil Brown has done at Troy. It's possible he's in the running for a mid-tier SEC job, but if he's not he would be ready to go here at USF. They're on track for another 10 win season after going 10-3 last year (with a 6 point loss to national champion Clemson), and beat a top 25 LSU team this year. His QB regressed this year, however, which is cause for concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
