Thank you to sir.

You think TN should settle for a mid pack coach?

You only listed 4 coaches being ranked lower than Strong

Strong is a great coach. Strong is a great recruiter. Strong knows how to celebrate. Strong is better than any coach in the SEC. I have no way to prove it, but Strong is awesome!!!!

Name the SEC coaches you would rank Strong ahead of.

Strong is not the answer

Was LSU settling for mediocrity when they hired a coach with an above-average record at Michigan State?

Were they settling for average when they hired a coach from Oklahoma State with a similar record to replace him?

Was Auburn going for mediocrity when they hired the Wyoming coach to replace Doug Barfield?

What we have here is a coach who took over a program with two conference wins over two seasons and turned them into conference champions in three years' time.

That isn't mediocre. That defines getting the job done and done quickly.

There is a reason Louisville is willing to put him on an elite-level in terms of pay in order to keep him. He's done an excellent job there and will continue to make progress in the ACC if they are able to retain his services.

666 Kiffin, Dooley, Strong. Another six letter in his last name coach. Hopefully he can do what the other two couldn't or wouldn't.

FTR i'm a Strong fan (not my 1st choice, but he's a good coach), but everyone has a right to their own opinion. Imo he's a good coach, but he does bring question marks, you don't have the right to tell everyone what to think about him like your word is the final verdict.

If were lucky enough to get CCS the worst thing we could do as a fan base is bash the guy before he even has a chance to coach. We need someone who knows X's and O's,is a good recuiter,and has morals. Who meets that criteria better than Strong and is available? I'm not saying he will be announced but give the next coach a fighting chance.

Great post. He would be a beast on the recruiting trail and his players love him and work their asses off for him. Thats the kind of coach want. He is a tough love kind of coach but like i said players love him. Cant say that for our last coach. Dont understand bashing him before he even has a presser. If the Louisville AD is willing to make him the highest paid coach in football that tells me all I need to know. If certain fans arent going to support him then go cheer for someone else. V, B

thank you sir for making my point.

You just ranked Strong as a lower mid pack coach in the SEC.

TN can do better.

Well let's see.
Muschamp has his sec team 3rd in the bcs year 2.
Richt has a been a proven winner even though I think he under achieves.
Spurrier has won a NC.
Bielema has 3 straight rose bowl appearances.
Miles Nc
Saban multiple Nc
7th best is not bad sir considering the company this conference currently has as coaches.

And I hope you're telling all of the people who signed those White House secession petitions don't bother waving American flags getting all patriotic either, right?

I disagree. You will all be welcome aboard the Wagon when you're ready. VFL

Ditto! Strong is NOT the answer and is only going to further divide the fan base.
