A lot of excuses for Strong & implications of "race" factors

The comment section of every sports article as well as ESPN commentators seem to be filled with people blindly backing because of race & implying he wasn't given a long leash because of that.

Sounds very familiar to the crap that was said when Tubby left and he never even had a losing season.

You can't be at Texas and have three straight losing seasons and keep your job.

If race had really been the issue, then he wouldn't have been hired in the first place. He was fired because he sucked. End of story.

Totally agree you can't have a losing record after 3 seasons at a place like Texas.

This. How the hell do you have a losing season at Texas anyway in the weak Big 12?

I know Tubby and he wanted out..He was not forced out he WANTED out..Ron Cooper played the race card at Loserville when fired and brought the Black Coaches Association in and Lil Brudder paid him off plus the taxes on the money..He called everyone in Louisville "trapsetters'

Strong was a likable guy, even when he was beating us. Race being a problem is pure BS.

W's ans L's. That is what keeps the coaching wheels from falling off.

It's just part of our constant refusal to take responsibility.

He is a coach who didn't win. Black, white, yellow, green. He didn't win.
