The coaching carousel continued to finalize itself more than a full month into the college football offseason. A former head coach of the Texas football program, Charlie Strong, was announced to be taking over as a defensive analyst on Feb. 17 with another blue blood. Head coach Nick Saban and the Alabama Crimson Tide is hiring Strong on as one of their defensive analysts for the 2020 season.
The Texas Longhorns football program saw Strong out of the door in Austin following the disappointing 2016 regular season. In 2016, Texas fell short of bowl eligibility in embarrassing fashion after losing to the Kansas Jayhawks on the road.
