Morris vs Strong

Morris had two months to recruit for a team with the ultimate bare cupboard. And is able to produce a decent offense. UT? Still waiting to produce anything resembling a competitive offense.

Strong made a play for Morris when he took the Texas job but Clemson refused to release him unless Texas paid his contract off. Texas said no.

Not that surprising, Strong didn't have a decent offense at Louisville until his 3rd season (and fans still though it was too conservative given the talent on hand).

Texas may want to get a new offensive coordinator/recruiter...I know of a polynesian tiki offensive guru that is available?

As a Texas Ex, I find it shocking that Strong adopted June Jones' "no blocking " strategy. That OL is a horror show.
Do unto others before they do unto you!!

Texas should have hired Briles when they had the chance. I hope they don't wave 5 million at our coach.

Both sides of the line got destroyed. Anytime your coach says a true frosh OL is the best blocker on the team or the best anything, you are in a lot of trouble.

Strong will be "encouraged" to make some staff changes after the season.

I think we could match any salary offer. But CM wants to win the big one and if we aren't in position to do that he would take a chance at it.

He may not be around to make any changes at the end of the season.
