Charly Strong was passed over and over and over for coaching positions while he was a DC at florida before Louisville. Krag had to kick off alot of thugs that Petrino recruited at Louisville so it took him too long( and was subsequently fired for it), but the talent he brought in has kept Strong above water. I beleive Strong will be exposed in a few years.

The real defensive Guru on that Florida staff was Greg Mattison (who I wanted as DC when Sherman was hired). Look what he has done with Michigan's defense in 1 year.

Art Briles. He's from Texas, he knows Texas, he knows Houston, he can recruit the area, he put Houston and Baylor back on the map. And unless he is just in love with Baylor and wouldn't ever leave, I think it might be possible to get him.

People forget Charlie Strong was DC at South Carolina where he had good defenses before he was hired at UF. Furthermore, Kragthorpe was shitty at Louisville and didn't leave Charlie with much of anything. Charlie is starting a true freshman at QB in Bridgewater and is going to a bowl game. And, that true freshman QB was highly recruited. Check out Strong's recruiting at Louisville. He's getting good players to come there. Strong to A&M would be a good hire.

Strong was passed over for HC jobs because of biases not because of coaching ability. His resume has been shining everywhere he has been.
