Emphasis should be on winning rather than losing.

Coach speak or not the best quote in the article "What people need to realize is that I'm not here to run out," Strong said. "People think I'm going to run out. Once people see I'm here to run th

We've had coaches beat around the bush and say things similar, but not as explicit as this, to cover themselves until the next best thing comes calling .  It sounds like he really does want to stay an

I'm not sure people in NJ and NY understand there is life outside the Hudson River.  I don't hold them to a very high standard.  Except you of course.

I'm from Long Island.  LI people typically recognize Long Island and NYC.  Everything else is likely farm land!

I work for J&J in Titusville, NJ, so I now relate to the Philly folks!

Are you in Long Valley as in Washington Twp?  Pretty part of the state.

Yes!  I moved here about seven years ago.  Very nice town, but a little slower than NY.

Don't you just hope that CSS is the real deal? He's on the fast track to 60. He's enjoyed his greatest success as an asst. coach besides Louisville/Bridgewater U. Maybe he looks around after his Texas chainsaw massacre episode and thinks...you know this is a pretty great place to live. I (CSS) could take this university to the next level make them a champion build myself a legacy here at South Florida. Hey, CSS are you reading this??       Tampa Bay Area/ Florida has the talent that's been proven. USF needs coaching continuity, marketing, " big thinkers", no scandals. It can't be done half-ass, partway. The administration, alumni, students, community, business need to be all in. CSS, I for one am glad your at U of South Florida. Now go kick some ass.....Go Bull's! 

So it's a knock on him that his two best years in his nine years as head coach came with a first round pick under center and his other best year came with the greatest player in USF history as his QB?

Most coaches have success with a "good" or "great" QB. So why is that a knock om him? When have you ever seen a coach win with a bad QB? lol And even if the qb is avg, they probably had a great defense or running back.

I know Jim Leavitt thought the same, he always preferred South Florida over USF.

Do they still have the canoe rental place along the river.  We've been gone since 2002 so have no clue if that business lasted.

Stay calm, No knock intended at all. I thought Teddy Bridgewater was great. I'm glad we have Charlie Strong as our coach.

Disclaimer: My posts should be analyzed with fun and frivolity in mind. I doubt you will ever see me get on here and be all negative what's the point? I'm not a negative blogger. This is the only blog I even get near only because I'm proud of being a USF grad TBP keeps me connected and some folks are a hoot to read... 

As for CCS success with QF? Just wonderful. We all got to be warm, fuzzy and proud with Mr. Flowers around. Hoping we just keep continuing an upward trend year after year.

But that is different when trying to nationally market an athletic program.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
