Okay, I did some research and found this.  Maybe the memory isn't as bad as I remember.   https://www.thedailystampede.com/2016/12/15/13975574/charlie-strong-introductory-press-conference-tweetcap-usf-bulls-texas-mark-harlan-willie-taggart

 

Harlan told media today that Strong will be at the bowl game in his suite. He also said that there’s a $2.5 million retention bonus for Strong if he stays at USF for year three. That part of the deal wasn’t in the contract released on Wednesday.

 

The $2.5 million Strong retention bonus in Year 3 comes from athletic department-generated funds, not student fees, per @MarkHarlanUSF

Was so pumped about this hire at the time now I am ambivalent just like he appears to be.

Still glad to have him, glad he helped get us to a bowl game. Now that he's losing a significant talent core, I'm both eager and reluctant (if that's possible) to see what he can do with the team next

CCS is the USF version of the Bucs Tony Dungy.  The D and drafting/recruiting will always be above average but the O will be bland as Dollar Tree vanilla ice cream unless he has an NFL potential QB.

Glad to see that in the contract. That may become an important factor going into year three.

So if he stays through year 3 he still makes 5M. Haircut is in year 4 then.

He was to make 5M from Texas.  Texas gets 50% off his current USF salary (50% of 1M is 500k or 0.5M) so 5M-0.5M (Texas discoount) + 1M (USF Salary) = 5.5M .  Either way after this season that is a hefty pay cut.

I just don't know how he will ever survive year 4.

I submit he will leave on his own before year four (due to success) before he would ever get sacked by USF.

I don't know, in year 4 we play Texas. I think he would like to avenge the only team to ever fire him.

Beat Texas.

Get their coach fired.

Replace him.


Revenge is a dish best served cold. CCS is playing the long game!

The only schools i was worried about taking Charlie away was UF, UM or Arkansas and all three have new head coaches. I don't see any P5 school worthy of taking CCS away. So hopefully we have a stable coach at least until that year.

I want to be optimistic about CCS, but the way our special teams and offense regressed this year has left a bad taste in my mouth. The fact that he couldn’t adjust his gameplan to match the talent on this roster is a poor coaching quality IMO. We had most of our team coming back, weak schedule, and he blew it. My hope is next year he has the players to play his system more but we aren’t going to have the talent for sure. Maybe the D is better and becomes the 02 Ravens or something.....
