Strong has been at the helm of the Cardinals football team for the last three seasons following stints at Florida, South Carolina and Notre Dame.  He is 37-15 during four seasons at Louisville and led the Cardinals to back-to-back bowl wins, including a 33-23 upset victory over Florida in the 2013 Sugar Bowl.

Strong will replace former Texas head coach Mack Brown, who resigned after leading the Longhorns in a blowout loss in the Dec. 30 Valero Alamo Bowl against Oregon.
