Why Texas still needs Charlie Strong to stay on through the season

Even if Texas’ president tweeted last week his commitment to Charlie Strong through the season, you know how social media is. A lot can get misinterpreted in such a small space. And when you factor in the combustible possibilities if it all goes off the rails at the State Fair, well, all bets are off.

So a 45-40 loss to Oklahoma before 92,100 at the Cotton Bowl would seem to signal Strong’s good for now. A good thing, too, because fixing Texas’ defense is going to take more than a week.

Any encouraging signs in your first game as your own defensive coordinator, Charlie?
