Longhorn Headlines: Charlie Strong Understands Expectations Beyond Winning

Charlie Strong  understands the expectations that have been set before him as the head coach of the Texas football program, and for him, it goes beyond the X’s and O’s.

“That’s why I stand on tall shoulders, because of the road so many men and women before me paved,” Strong said. “I wouldn’t have this opportunity I have now if someone didn’t fight the fight they fought. I never got bitter because it keeps you from moving forward. But if I have success here, it’s only going to open doors for everyone else.”

Longhorn guard Isaiah Taylor announced over the weekend that he was officially staying in Austin for his junior season instead of entering the NBA Draft.
