[Alouha27]

Strong does look a little uncomfortable.

Prob the biggest press conference in his career! lol

 

[HornEsch]

Definately not as comfortable with the media as ole Mack was. I don't necessarily a bad thing. Seems to be more "real" as opposed to simple political speech.

 

[Lukus Alderman]

Speaking kindly about Mack Brown. Spoke to him last night.

 

[Alouha27]

Strong had very nice things to say about Mack. Very classy guy!

 

[Davharjac]

You can hear the intensity in his voice, love it.

 

[HornEsch]

Now he is starting to get rolling

 

[Lukus Alderman]

He's speaking with passion about closing the borders of the state in regards to recruiting.

 

[Juan]

"We will recruit with fire and we will recruit with passion."

Boom

 

[Alouha27]

Speaking kindly about Mack Brown. Spoke to him last night.

Yeah classy guy for sure!

 

[HornEsch]

Ok, now I want to put a helmet on.

Do you think a 38 year old, way out of shape running back could work?

 

[Alouha27]

He's speaking with passion about closing the borders of the state in regards to recruiting.

Would have loved to been in on that call! Would like to know what Mack said to him!

Edit-Sorry thought I was replying to him talking to Mack last night.

 

[Lukus Alderman]

Now taking questions.
