Not sure what this is about but thought I should share.

I'll be following his presser @AnwarRichardson on Twitter. (Beat writer for UT on Yahoo/Rivals)

Charlie Strong getting asked about Miami: "It's all rumors. We're here to build a program."
 
Saban "I will not be the next coach at Alabama." I don't believe anything these coaches say. I certainly hope that's the case, though.

Rumors have swirled regarding the future of Texas head football coach Charlie Strong, but a new report indicates the Longhorns boss isn't in danger of being sent packing.

Continue for updates.

Strong Comments on Miami Rumors, Texas' Struggles
Wednesday, Nov. 18
"It's all a rumor," Strong said when asked about speculation he could fill the University of Miami's head coaching vacancy, per Max Olson of ESPN. "We're here to build a program. That's why I came here."

He also said he realizes Texas fans are frustrated and he has to turn things around, per Anwar Richardson of OrangeBloods.com.

Strong Won't Be Fired if Texas Loses Final 2 Games

Citing two sources, Chip Brown of HornsDigest.com reported, "UT president Greg Fenves and interim athletic director Mike Perrin are unequivocal in their support of Charlie Strong coming back in 2016."

Brown added Strong's job security within the university hierarchy is linked to feelings that the head coach "didn't receive the support he needed during his first 20 months at Texas."

Texas started the season 1-4, but a 24-17 win over Oklahoma in October's Red River Rivalry offered hope the Longhorns were turning a corner. And while the Longhorns have won two contests since over Kansas State and Kansas, they've faltered in winnable Big 12 showdowns against Iowa State and West Virginia.

After posting a 6-7 record during Strong's first season in Austin, it's understandable for the Longhorns faithful to be growing restless. However, the university's patience during trying times is admirable, especially since Strong was tasked with rebuilding the program following Mack Brown's departure.

On the flip side, Strong appears to be reciprocating commitment to Texas. According to OrangeBloods.com's Anwar Richardson, Strong has not been in contact with Miami.

Exactly. I can't believe some still take what coaches say at face value. He's saying all of the right things right now while his agent is doing the negotiations with other schools. I'm not saying he's definitely going to be the coach at Miami, but he's definitely planning on bolting with whomever will bite.

As we've seen with Golden, it doesn't matter what the president and AD say. If those boosters complain enough, they'll foot the bill to get him out of there.
 
Strong is bathing in a dumpster fire at Texas, but I must say -- I like the press for Miami.
 
Fellas, Charlie can say he's committed to Texas all he wants. The real bottom line is if Texas is committed to Charlie after a 5-7/4-8 season. Miami is desperate enough to wait and see if Texas fires him before proceeding.

Hmmm I wonder what fired coach he sounds like. Almost word for word with Al Golden. Strong is a loser just like AG.

My theory is all these rumors are started by Strong's agent/people. The agent has to know Strong's future at UT is poor. Why not create some bullchit hype? Who else is not interested in the job, anyone on the hot seat or near it!
 
Why do we have to settle? Call Patterson, Chip Kelly, Herman etc. Call the ******* home runs & make them say NO! I mean that's if they don't want King Butch of course. He should already be out recruting & try to flip the college football world on its head. But thats another story.

We don't. Some of our fan base just believes we do.
