I wonder who he's a fan of.  

[Texastrong]

Hey guys thanks for the welcome. Long time Texas fan here, just checking in to see what is going on with Coach Strong at USF.

This looks like a really good fit. If anyone has any questions about Charlie feel free to ask.

Welcome!

 

What are your thoughts on Austin?

[Texastrong]

Thoughts on Austin as in Strong's tenure there? Or thoughts on Austin in general?

Welcome Texastrong.

Curious of his Defense while in Texas.

Sorry Texastrong, I was going for a cheap laugh from the regulars.

We had a lengthy off topic discussion about the benefits of Austin on our Charlie Strong thread.

It is pretty well documented that his defense took a big step back in year two and three. He did have a good defense his first season, relative to his last two years.

Why?

His base defense is the 3-3-5 and the past two years, he had absolutely terrible LB play. He brought in guys that could run like a deer, but, did not know how to shed blocks, which, we all know if critical in playing the position.

When he demoted Bedford, the defense got better. But, they also slowed down the offense and were not in HUNO as much.

There were players who played better as true freshment than their Soph year, which was puzzling. Was it a soph slump, or, problems within the locker room? I did hear rumors that they did not like the new DB coach and the DB's just were confused and not playing 100% for him.

Texas Strong, what are your thoughts about the three game series between USF and Texas starting in 2020.

USF Future Schedules:

2020 Schedule
Sept. 5 at Texas Austin, Texas
Sept. 12 SAN JOSE STATE TAMPA
Sept. 19 NEVADA TAMPA
Sept. 26 at FAU Boca Raton, Fla.

 

 

2022 Schedule
Sept. 3 TEXAS TAMPA
Sept. 23 at BYU Provo, Utah

 

2024 Schedule
Aug. 31WESTERN KENTUCKY TAMPA
Sept. 7 at Texas Austin, Texas

 

I suspect that USF fans were very excited to be playing Texas, even BEFORE we hired Charlie Strong.

 

Now, those games will carry even more significance for both teams, assuming CCS stays here long enough to play them all.
