FWIW:

Charlie Strong's job at Texas safe through season, source says

Geoff Ketchum ‏@gkketch 5m 5 minutes ago
Multiple sources have told Orangebloods tonight that Charlie Strong will take over full control and play-calling duties from Vance Bedford.

It remains to be seen how the situation will be presented, but the expectation moving forward is that Strong will serve as the acting DC.

Edit add: Reports: Charlie Strong will take over defense from Vance Bedford

Official:

Charlie Strong will take over defensive play-calling. Vance Bedford will coach secondary.

Mike Finger ‏@mikefinger 9m 9 minutes ago
Strong: "The way we've played on defense is unacceptable... So I'm gonna run the defense. I'm gonna coach the defense."

Mike Finger ‏@mikefinger 6m6 minutes ago
"It's not desperation," Strong says.
 
Don't think Charlie Strong gonna make it past this season. He wanted the big gig and now he is facing the pressure. Why can't Benedict make similar statement to give us some hope? Why do we accept this medicore performance week after week?

It looks like Herman will be at Texas next season. Sucks for Houston but that's life of a G5. My only wish is someone dumb enough and hire Diaco away this offseason.

An AD telling the press mid season that "I'm evaluating everything" is just empty talk. The question isn't why he said it -- the question is why would you take comfort from Benedict saying the same thing? Why would empty words make you feel better?

At the end of the season, Benefict either will or will not make a coaching change. I can't imagine that he will, but he will have that choice. Why you would take comfort from any words that don't come with the action you seem to want is beyond me.
 
Charlie Strong will be gone after the season. My contact at UT has a pretty good track record. He told me the word was if Strong lost to OK St he'd be on the way out. They'll be making a push for Tom Herman and they will get him. Count on it.

It is clear something needs to change. So far, Diaco has showed that he lacks the fundamental capability to be a head coach. If Benedict made the statement, it would at least let the fans know that he shares our frustrations.

If Diaco does not go bowling this year, he should be fired. Losing record in a league like the AAC in year 3 is just not acceptable.
 
Bobby-Boy D needs to go at the end of the season and take his boring style of play (and those stupid red pants) with him.
 
It took Frank Beamer several seasons to get VT going. 3 years is just not enough time to get your players and system in place, especially with our program history. I would give him 3 more years to get a winning season. If he fails at least the then available coaches will know that they will get a fair chance at UConn.

The only logic I can accept is that you are a BCU fan. What games have you been watching? 3 years of psycho Bob? You really want to destroy UConn football don't you?
 
A coach might have gotten 5 years in 1985 but that is rare today and no coach would worry about getting a fair shake based on the firing of a guy who has put up Diaco's record to date.
