Link Inside for Strong Intro Press Conference - 11AM Start

[Juan]

UT job: "This is the best of the best."

"I know it's a larger stage, but at the end of the day, it's all about winning."

 

[Lukus Alderman]

Called Texas the "Best of the Best" in regards to coaching jobs.

 

[Alouha27]

Ok, now I want to put a helmet on.
Do you think a 38 year old, way out of shape running back could work?

Hope so! I'm 39. lol

 

[Lukus Alderman]

Said he will meet with the althletes individually.

 

[Lukus Alderman]

"It's all about winning."

 

[HornEsch]

"Have to build your program on toughness"

 

[Juan]

@espn cuts away from the Strong press conference and @FOXSports1 sticks with it.

FS1 for the win.

 

[Lukus Alderman]

Wants recruits to know that he will build the program on toughness.

 

[HornEsch]

 

[longhorndon]

I was okay with the hire at first, but now I'm completely sold! Great hire! Hook'em Coach!

 

[HornEsch]

It is apparent he has already reached out to potential staff.

Doors will always be open to high school coaches. Texas will represent high school coaches.

 

[HornEsch]

Maybe he can get his friend to come coach basketball here

 

[RoyalCrowns]

gecko,

I thought the very same thing. But that soon went away when he took the microphone. He acquitted himself quite well. I believe he'll be a tremendous recruiter.

 

[Juan]

Heh

He has been speaking a lot about developing talent. Good for recruits to hear.

 

[Juan]

Pretty impressive on a cold as shit day

 

[Lukus Alderman]

Strong says his ego will "never be larger than the university."
