No way. Strong is one of the best recruiters in the country and a hell of a defensive mind. Get a good offensive coordinator in place and he might actually be able to build off Petrino's success instead of the inevitable decline most are expecting.


Strong = 7-6, 7-6 at Louisville. Petrino = 9-4, 11-1, 9-3, 12-1 at the same school with less experience. Comparatively, we don't want Strong...

This is an extremely deceiving stat.

Petrino took over a Louisville team that was 27-11 in the prior three seasons with two conference championships. Strong took over a Louisville team that was 15-21 the prior three seasons and coming off two straight years of going 1-6 in conference.

You really can't compare the two based off records because their situations that they walked in to were completely different.
