Sounds like he needs to take them down to Junction.

Re: Strong kicks ANOTHER player from the Whorns
Hahaha, I would like to see how that would go over in today's society. I doubt many players would even attempt anything they were told in those tough conditions. There would be public outrage on social networks and no telling how many lawsuits. We may be considered more "civilized," but many immoral acts are now considered normal and forced down our throats, while many good actions are deemed unacceptable. It's a crazy world we now live in.
Re: Strong kicks ANOTHER player from the Whorns
Strong is doing exactly what he needs to. He is instilling discipline into his team. I applaud him for taking the steps needed to become a better team. I truly believe he is a good coach. He can be dangerous at a school like texas.

The meltdown in Austin when they lose 6 or 7 games this fall is going to be epic.

Strong is having to clean up CMB's mess and getting rid of the bad apples is part of the process.

I have no problem with a coach coming in and getting rid of players who do not work, attend class and cannot follow the rules. Good for Strong! He may lose some games this year but he is going to have players that want to be a part of his program.

Have friends spending the weekend with us from St Louis - they are originally from Texas and huge Horns fans. They are happy to have a head coach who is a disciplinarian. They liked Mack but appreciate that he was a player's coach and the team totally lacked discipline.

Re: Strong kicks ANOTHER player from the Whorns
The problem is that it may take a couple of losing or at least mediocre seasons before he can truly get the culture of the program turned around to where he can begin to really build a quality, disciplined team. The question is, will the big-wigs in Tejas have the patience to let him do what needs to be done without interfering?

Too bad he can't show some of those obnoxious Texas boosters the door.

Re: Strong kicks ANOTHER player from the Whorns
Even Coach Bryant had doubts about his actions regarding the junction and whether it was a good thing to do. I think if he'd thought it was the right way to do things he'd have done it everywhere he went but he didn't. His practices could be brutal if he thought the team was too soft but he often vacillated between working his teams too hard or not hard enough and spoke about it often.

Kudos to Charlie for trying to clean up the mess that Mack made. Some interesting things I've found surfing the internets:

Glad to see any coach lay down the law. A renegade program makes the sport as a whole look bad.

ESPN headlines (and also this board's) look like a police blotter lately. Can only mean one thing: fall camp is about to launch, where hope springs eternal. RTR

Speaks to the point I made the other day that these guys need structure and a routine. The season can't get here fast enough for them
And it only continues. A Southern Miss player is one person named in an armed robbery. That story broke just minutes ago. And as you alluded to, there's a laundry list of these stories over the past 3 weeks or so.

Aubarn will have enough players to field 2 teams at this rate.

Re: Strong kicks ANOTHER player from the Whorns
I actually have nothing but respect for Coach Strong & the fact he's weeding out the players that doesn't need to be there..Mack seemed to allow the players to get away with too much nonsense the last few year he was their HC & it will take Coach Strong a couple years to right the situation..He's not cutting the players any slack & I can respect that, it will cause a couple years of poor football, the more talent he kicks off the team, but, if the ShortHorn Fans are smart, they will understand this if the losses starts to pile up..Coach Strong is giving the ShortHorn Football Program a much needed enema that will eventually produce a solid football program & the wins will come..If they allow Coach Strong to do what he needs to do & recruit his players into the football his system..
