The more I'm reading today i think he's gonna kill it at Texas in that dept and will go into areas UT hasn't been. Some coaching sources think he's big time

The culture is also fixing to take a 180 and pretty interested to see how the current roster handles that

 
I agree that he is a great recruiter and great on the D side of the ball. what Strong needs is a very good/great spread OC that will come in and recruit lights out on that side of the ball. need to go against Briles, Ou, Lsu, Ok St and get the spread guys to come to Texas. Strong also needs a couple of great recruiters on either side of the ball with connections to Texas. Ex: major applewhite as the RB coach bc he knows the state of Texas, or Tim Brewster. Another great recruiter would be Ed O and DL guy.

 
I'd keep Porter as RB coach. IMO he's a better recruiter than Applewhite. I'd move Applewhite to QB coach.

 
Here is one miss and one keep already

I think a 24/7 poster named Bushnido said it best. Texas better get ready for the 305's, because they don't know anything about being pampered.

 
If I am CS I am going directly to Oregon and buy Scott Frost away from them.

 
First call Strong needs to make is to Jerrod Heard. Lock that up.

Dizz im glad to see we still have some that are willing to give him his due..hes gonna kill it here..thats 100% we can believe in

 
What is clear is that Texas does have talent to run the spread, Heard is a monster in the open field. either Oregon or Ohio's st style offense would work for him. Does any of you think that Daniel Gresham flops back to Texas? Horns could use another RB on the roster. Is Donald Catalon ready to play sooner than later?

One thing I think all can agree on is that the culture definitely needs to be changed big-time. If he brings that, then he's already an improvement
