The guy has a history of success. I find it hard to believe that he's coming into our program to cash a paycheck and ruin that legacy. I'm willing to bet he is re-energized and has us competing very quickly. If it's completed, it's a GREAT hire and Michael Kelly deserves credit.

Yup, top 100 all time in NCAA winningest coaches. Over 27 years of coaching he averages 21+ wins a season. Best resume of anyone we've ever hired besides Lee Rose

And the worries that he's retiring and won't work hard is complete nonsense. The guy's only 63. He can't even retire in France these days.  🙂

I'm telling you, this isn't the same guy as Charlie. Nothing points to that at all about Mike Brey.

Charlie Strong had no sustained success when we hired him. Just 2 good seasons with a 1st round NFL QB.

Brey turned Delware into a tourney team. Then took a Notre Dame team that hadn't made the tourney in 10 years and made it more often than he missed it over 20+ years

I am choosing to believe that moving to Florida has just been on Mike Brey’s retirement/coaching checklist for the last 30 years

I am happy with this hire. I feel he can take us to multiple NCAA tournaments.

I agree, you cant compare the two.  Strong's record at Texas was atrocious. He was lucky at Louisville when he hit the jackpot with QB Bridgewater

Brey took Notre Dame to the round of 32 as recently as last year. Besides that he brings decades of success at every level.

Kelly I believe made the right hire this time around.

Oops sorry about that. Then if he is hired he would be good hire. Lets hope it happens.
