Fox Sports: Why is Texas waiting to fire Charlie Strong?

[83Dee]

^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^

I posted on another site yesterday that the K-State game today was going to either be the beginning of something special, or the end of this. I truly believe this. The opening drive by K-State was all I needed to see that once again Strong and his staff -- THE ENTIRE STAFF -- did not have the team prepared.

A The offense, for all the success they've had this year, still has issues. How does Duvernay not get a MINIMUM of 10 targets per game and needs to be utilized in the run game. Collin Johnson needs to be more involved. These two guys are not being utilized as much as they should be.  

B What has happened to No. 46?

C Is Bonney the best DB we have on that side? He could not cover Bill Snyder.

It's not about one game, it's about 14-18, plain and simple. It's not the loss today, but the absolute lack of preparation and discipline. 

D And I have no idea who Texas has a legitimate shot at hiring because I'm not convinced that Tom Herman is the guy.

NWA Horn, Good post. 

A  I am beginning to tire of the steady diet of sideways passes.  Perhaps because our line doesn't allow enough time for much else? 

B  Is there an injury we don't know about?  Looking at that game, I think Freeman is beginning to beat him out?!

C  He had a decent game against Iowa St.  No doubt played really, really badly against KState.  One of our positions of great success in recruiting recently has become arguably our biggest weakness.... DB.  Could any of them cover Bill Snyder?  Elliott could probably knock Snyder out of the game after he made the catch.   

D  Herman has coached himself out of being the obvious choice for every big time team with a job opening.  He is now getting spanked by teams with much less talent.  I would side toward coaches who have had success for several years at a "tier two power five school."  Here are a few names:

Dabo Swinney

Chip Kelly

Mark Dantonio

And whatever you do always remember:  LISTEN TO RED MCCOMBS!!!!

I love this!!! But the fact that a DB is delivering our biggest hits speaks volumes about this program.
