Im hearing this. Has anyone else? Charlie would bring instant credibility but I think his style is boring. Would like for WKU to stay with an offensive minded coach.

Hearing it where?

As long as they win, I don't care if it's 20-14 style or 28-3. Seeing wild west shoot outs and 4+ hour games have their own set of draw backs IMO.

 

Then again, I'm also from the school that still thinks teams taking the bulk (or half of their snaps) from under center, huddling up, using multiple tight ends and/or two backs etc doesn't mean that you are a clueless-neanderthal that has no clue how to coach offense.

 

Texas was showing flash on offense. They lost as many games scoring 30-40+ points this year as they did scoring 21 or less (well, almost. Lost three scoring 31-43 points and four when scoring 21 or less). They averaged 32/game even w/ their last game of the year scoring 9 after he had already been fired.

This would be an excellent haul for WKU, if true.

This seems like gobbledygook until I see a real source on this.

 

If Jason Michael isn't the next coach at WKU I'll be really surprised.

Doesn't Strong make a couple million not to coach for a few years?

Like $2 million.

Dallas News is reporting the Bearcats are going after Charlie.

Seems like a good candidate. Is he on his way out in Tennessee anyway since the demotion? He has done some really nice things with Mariotti

I put a question mark to the end of this thread title so that it doesn't appear matter-of-fact.

I would think his buy out from Texas may prevent this. Doesn't he stand to make more money not coaching than the 800K Brohm was making in salary at WKU?

I'd assume Strong gets the money whether he's employed next season or not, and Texas would get a credit for the $800K from WKU (in your scenario).

Strong is owed $430,000 per month for the next 26 months from Texas. He is expected to make a reasonable effort to gain employment. If he is hired Texas would be relieved of 50% of his new contract.

What would be the best move for him to get paid by Texas the most then?

 

If I was him id take every possible cent from them.

I would think a minimum wage job for the next two years. ?

Like would he receive more money if he were to take a step back and be a coordinator for a couple years? Because if Greg Schiano leaves he could come work for Urban again for a couple years!
