Coaches pool is set to jump dramatically. We should be able to assemble a decent staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strong has not shown any indication that he can turn around the mess he created. At this point 2019 and the near future is 100% on Kelly. Unfortunately that near future is likely going to be a distaste that’s will equal the tenure of COA and men’s basketball. USF football, which was already struggling for relevance, will be lapped by the school 90 miles to our east. I have a gut feeling that I hope is wrong. CCS wants Burke. Burke can't be sold to Kelly. But he can passive-aggressively insist on a thorough search and interviewing several candidates over a couple weeks ensuring that the best candidates are hired elsewhere before his exhaustive search ends thus making Burke the only guy left.

Anyone can see that CCS has failed miserably and is likely on his way out, so, who is going to take a job that is likely a 1-year deal? I know who... Someone nobody else wants and doesnt already have a more solid position. Bell is likely better off staying at his current job and making a move up next year than taking this job, getting hamstrung by CCS and fired at the end of the year. Just because the hire isn't done doesn't mean we haven't offered, it's just not that attractive of a job. Best case is a position coach looking to make a move to OC.

CCS promotes Burke and gets to suppress the offense in 2019. I hope I'm wrong, but if this plays out I see us at 4-8 in 2019 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’d rather lose doing it his way than have success where changes are forced upon him. For Strong, being comfortable is the number one factor he believes he needs to be successful. I get that. I'm like that. But I try to follow the advice of David Bowie and other really great creative types who say you can't do your best work until you're out of your comfort zone. 40 minutes ago, Justin C said: CCS is holding all the cards, he knows we can't afford to fire him or afford a decent OC.

CCS is loyal to his people who follow him and doesn't like change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
