Did he actually say that? A man named Strong ought not exhibit such insecurity.

Also, he lost to Kansas and never had a winning season at Texas. :laugh:

I think the quote may be out of context. I saw his USF presser and he was talking about his experience at Texas and how much he learned from it and enjoyed it, would do it all over again, etc. Idk, probably not the best analogy to make either way, but I don't feel like he's left a bare cupboard the way some coaches do.

A high school coach in california resigned from his program with a nice note that had a great ending.

quote:

“I was blessed to be a part of this great chapter in the book of Los Altos Football. As the page turns…so do priorities. The responsibilities and demands on a Head Coach continue to increase, at least the only way I know how to do the job, and at the same time, my kids continue to grow and have more and more to do, which has lead to me being absent from their lives at an increasing rate.

“Unfortunately, I’m not intelligent enough to work smarter. I just work harder, which has taken more time from my family, and as I grow older, I find myself desperately wanting to rectify this problem, and be a better family man. That means less attention and energy I can give to Los Altos Football. “

At the present moment, I don’t know how to do the job any different than I already do, and it would be an injustice to the hard working kids of Los Altos to continue on as my focus shifts to more to my family.

“So, it is time for me to step away from the Head Coach role, maybe coach some where in a lesser capacity, that I may be a better father and husband, and learn from others how to be a better coach. Maybe learn how to win the big one, which is what this community wants, and the kids and school so rightfully deserve.

“Thank You Los Altos, admin, conqueror crazies, parents, and especially the student-athletes.

“It’s time to Clark Griswold my house.”

Purdue: Jeff Brohm’s contract has formally been approved by Purdue trustees and it includes a fixed annual compensation of $3.3 million, including a base university salary of $300,000, and a $3.3 million supplemental stipend.

Coaching salaries generally are going up and he'd have been in the running for pretty much every job below the Texas/LSU tier. He has a much better track record going into the job than Hazell did so I would hope they're paying him more.

He ran good offenses at USC and Washington. Somehow turned Jake Locker into a first round pick.

Jake Locker was basically anointed as a first rounder from the beginning even though he was actually bad.

I was gonna say, he didn't do anything to make Jake Locker a better football player. Locker was a first rounder because he was tall and could run fast
