June 21, 20205 yr So Charlie was cheating and his team still looked like that? Wow. Edited June 21, 20205 yr by 927 E. 41st
June 21, 20205 yr They're just trying to get out of paying the contract. Fuck'em for the way they structured the contract
June 22, 20205 yr I’d counter with fuck him for 16-21.I’m kidding. I honestly don’t give a shit whether they pay him or not.
June 22, 20205 yr He was a good/great defensive coordinator back in the day but every dime he earned as a head coach was found money

June 22, 20205 yr Is this what we’ve come to in college football? Multiple third tier programs trying to prove to themselves that they cheated in order to avoid paying off terrible hires? Edited June 22, 20205 yr by ClubWhatever

June 22, 20205 yr Turns out to be true, but I remember some guy being loudly accused of being a racist for saying something similar back when he was hired here. You couldn’t say anything bad about the guy when he was hired without hearing that.
June 22, 20205 yr He was a good/great defensive coordinator back in the day but every dime he earned as a head coach was found money Maybe he just needs to say thank you to lamar Jackson for getting him an 8 figure payday.

June 22, 20205 yr never had a QB while here... just like any school that isn't Alabama, can't win without a QB.didn't get the initial offensive staff right,and made it worse.gotta score points.

Strong's teams at Texas weren't good. At times they seemed completely unprepared (Notre Dame 2015 comes to mind). The offense his first two years under Watson (whom he hired) was awful, then the defense in '16 (which was Strong's calling card) was terrible. He lost to an awful Kansas team. He did a poor job at Texas. All of those things are true and I doubt anyone will disagree with me about them.
June 22, 20205 yr he nailed the defensive staff though. I'd have preferred we kept some of that staff than the one that just broke some of the old staff's records.
June 22, 20205 yr Didn't recruit a single transfer QB in a market that was ripe with themHeard was supposed to be the guy. but they did (lightly) recruite the juco kid from the valley... eh... i can't recall... but ended up at VT.any D1 xfer would have come after year 1, would have had to sit year 2, then get to learn a new offense in year 3...wouldn't have made a difference... i dont recall any difference maker transfers.

All of those things are true and I doubt anyone will disagree with me about them. all of this is correct.there are reasons, but football is about outcomes (except for retread guys who've done nothing but win 7 games a year and keep doing just enough nothing to not completely fail.)
June 22, 20205 yr Charlie's legacy will be that of a leader who saw his players quit on him. He was one of the worst head coaches college football has seen in the last 30 years. When you're down 12 against Oklahoma State and you punt on their side of the field, that should have been the sign you needed to fire him. At least a loss to Kansas with an interim head coach would have been easier to swallow. Now we have to live with that shame for a long time and Charlie got paid. Good for you Charlie. Congrats on your pay day. You and Kurt can celebrate together

This is so wrong, it’s funny. Texas didn’t seriously recruit either Jerod Evans (VT Juco) or Riley Ferguson (JUCO who went to Memphis and was really good). Both would’ve come to Texas if Texas really tried for them. Both were difference makers and would’ve been massive upgrades over Swoopes/TR FR Beuchele. A D1 transfer who’s a third or fourth year in college, also would’ve been a huge upgrade over those guys. We should all thank our lucky stars Strong couldn’t figure out he had a huge hole at QB, because any of those options in 2016 probably save his job for at least another year, but he absolutely fucked up in this area.
June 22, 20205 yr Dude managed to get canned from two head coaching jobs after three seasons. That's a surprisingly efficient failure rate.

He was one of the worst head coaches college football has seen in the last 30 years. Charlie sucked here, but this kind of hyperbole is what brings unnecessary validity to claims of racism. There’s no way “one of the worst head coach coaches in 30 years” could have an overall winning record at HC. Not by all that slim a margin either or in a tiny sample size, 74-53. You can think he sucked at Texas while recognizing that overall as a head corch he’s been mediocre.

Yes, he should have said "THE worst head coach at Texas in school history," so no one would be confused by what he meant. He was inexcusably bad here. The worst coach in our history. He did less with more than just about any coach in CFB history. Just to be clear.

When you pointed out how awful he was on Shaggy the first two years the "racist" card was always thrown out. A lot threw it out when he got fired. Although I suspect some of that was their desperate attempt to show that Mack Brown was the worst coach ever as they had been claiming for 10 years and not being able to stand being wrong.

June 23, 20205 yr What's amazing is the kansas game seems like ages ago. Yet, the qb who got hung with the L to Kansas still has another year of eligibility.

June 23, 20205 yr So damned incredible to lose to Kansas. I was glad it meant we would be rid of Charlie, but damn. I thought Mackovick was a tool, but he at least fielded some teams.
