Big 12 hot seats topped by Charlie Strong at Texas

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – Charlie Strong began his weekly news conference Monday by spending a couple of minutes discussing the multitude of self-inflicted wounds that cost Texas in its lost to Kansas State on Saturday.

Turnovers. Penalties. Blown assignments.

It could eventually serve as the epitaph for his tenure leading the Longhorns.

Strong dropped to 14-18 in his third season with the 24-21 defeat in Manhattan . And with eighth-ranked Baylor rolling into town, the chances of turning things around this week appear bleak.

“You look at the job – I know this, we haven’t played well,” Strong said. “But I know this football team can play a lot better, will play a lot better. We just have to continue to develop.”
