From ESPN 1250 radio interview. Red McCombs: "I think they went about it wrong, and I think they made the selection wrong." Red McCombs: "I don't have any doubt Charlie is a fine coach. I think he'd probably make a fine position coach, maybe a coordinator." Red McCombs: "I had been talking to Jon Gruden at length any number of times and we had planned on having our next long conversation today." Red: "If we got Gruden in there for 15-years, that we'd get at least 5-titles and we would set records like we've never set before."

I don't know whether Red is a racist or not, but could you point out the racist portion of that statement?

this. at no point was race ever mentioned, stated or insinuated. Maybe he thinks Gruden has more skins than Strong (which he absolutely does).

Pretty tool-like comment. He will be all over him if he starts winning though.

No racist but.....for all the hype everybody put on this job I have to say to somebody that doesn't have a dog in the hunt Strong does seem like a pretty underwhelming hire.

he's the coach they deserve, but not the one they need right now. He is their dark coach

Red is pissed that he was shut out of the decision process. Finally, UT has an AD that doesn't kowtow to the big money boys. There is no defending this old man. He is apparently confused on several levels and is close to descending into Marge Schott territory. Being rich doesn't mean that you have good football sense, as Jerry Jones and Danny Snyder prove to us daily.

Charlie Strong is a successful head coach. To say Strong would be a nice position coach is, well, I don't know what that is. No he didn't mention race, but still begs the question, with a record such as he has, why is he not a good head coach.
Now some of it is clearly UT arrogance.
