USF Fans Happy About Strong’s Hire
It seems since Willie Taggart announced his departure from South Florida fans have been urging USF to “pick up the phone and call Charlie.” Fans have gotten what they wanted.
News of Charlie Strong’s hire was announced early this afternoon and fans have been praising USF’s athletic department for sealing the deal.

You knew that a good coach like Charlie Strong would not be unemployed long USF was smart to pull that trigger

Charlie Strong would like to take most of his staff from Texas with him to South Florida, including offensive coordinator Sterlin Gilbert.

Known Charlie Strong for nearly 20 years. Timing, fit and circumstances can be everything with head coaching jobs. Bet he cleans up at USF.

Imagine in-state recruiting b/w Jim McElwain, Jimbo Fisher, Mark Richt, Charlie Strong, Butch Davis, Scott Frost & if Lane Kiffin is at FAU?

Overall, fans are extremely happy with USF’s new head coach.
