From an ESPN radio show yesterday morning. 

"I think he's looking at it exactly right. He looked at it and realized, 'They're not gonna fire me in the first year. They've invested too much in it, so I may as well just rip it down, that way rebuilding it will be easier because everybody that's left will be people who agree with my mindset, who are invested in it the same way I am and that'll make moving ahead a lot easier.' That's what he's doing."

"Will it work? Yeah, it's gonna work? Charlie Strong wins wherever he goes. I don't care what everybody else in the league does; his defenses, when he gets the players he wants in there, are gonna stop those offenses. It's not gonna be a problem. The guy knows what he's doing. He knows how to get players to believe. He just needed to root out all the issues. The best way to do that is just wipe the slate clean. Don't worry about how many you're gonna win this year, worry about how many you're gonna win next year and the year after that, because they're not firing him this year."

"There are not many coaches in the country that I believe in as fervently as Charlie Strong. I've seen it in action too many times to think it won't work."
