Bear Woods is from Macclenny, FL; which is 8 miles from where I grew up in Baldwin, FL

….if you know anything about this area, you would not be surprised in the least that there’s someone named “Bear Woods” from there.

It is too bad athletic directors like failed head coaches more than giving a first shot to respected coordinators. At least at programs worth coaching for.

Tyrone Prothro thinks that Brown will recover nicely.

Prothro doesn’t use that cane because he thinks it looks pimp, btw.

C’mon, James Laurinaitis is a three year starter at Ohio State. You know he’s an expert at supplying the butt after our last four big games.

Bad resume? Nahhh, just the wrong choice of cologne. CS needs to go with “Flame” from Burger king – the body spray with a “hint of flame-broiled meat.”

What AD wouldn’t eat that up? Here’s Charlie’s new photo that’s going into his resume… http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v612/_Duhhh/bkstrong.jpg

I was just about to ask the same thing. Maybe Strong positions himself into a Fisher/Muschamp situation and takes the reigns should Meyer split at some point, not a bad spot to be in i think. Not all head coaching gigs are actually worthwhile. Strong will get his shot, no doubt.

I remember reading a quote from Strong that he was not travelling for interviews. Basically, he said “If they want to interview me, they can come talk to me”. I think this is because he was jerked around some the last few years. Flying in to interviews just so programs could say they interviewed an African-American coach. So now, there may be a backlash against him. UF’s gain.

I am also a terrible person. But I get to see this stuff when it happens (athletic training). Although I haven’t seen any compounds yet.

Did anyone else watch L’ville’s last game against Rutgers? I don’t care if English is black, blue, or orange. I wouldn’t want him coaching my team. How the hell did he get any head coaching job?

Thanks for the video. It wasn’t messed up at all…

…and, I just puked up my morning Red Bull. Now I’ve got no energy in my system and I’m going to pass out. Good times.

Is Charlie even on record stating that he would like to be a head coach? Even if he’s interviewed for the spot a few times, doesn’t mean his heart’s into it.

Or is everyone presuming he wants to be a head coach some day?

I am sure there is a contingent of coaches that prefer to be coordinators “only” and not be in the spotlight like a head coach is, money/fame/ego be damned.

Not saying Charlie is one of them – I’m just asking.

1.) There aren’t even rumors of Charlie Strong being interviewed for these jobs… who did he piss off? Is there a Bobby Lowder over ALL of college football that we don’t know about?

B.) “They didn’t all come from the back…” HA HA HA

The bottom of that ring smashing article says the Poinsettia Bowl is giving 6 complimentary tickets to each player. That’s a lot of 6-packs of High Life.

Hmmm I’m trying to decide which was worse. DeAndre Brown’s break or Patrick Edward’s (Houston Cougars) against Marshall.
