Defense is what got the Texas Longhorns to a bowl game in head coach Charlie Strong's first year in 2014. Offense is what might have to do the job this time around. Considering the Longhorns could barely move the ball at times last season, improving the offense dramatically is Strong's biggest goal for 2015.
His own job security likely depends upon it, as if you needed any more proof that being the head coach at Texas is that demanding.
Let's start at the beginning. On national signing day in early February, Strong promised Longhorn fans a more wide-open offense going forward, noting that it behooved the program to run something similar to what high schools across the state did.
