Charlie Strong to join Urban Meyer as Jaguars assistant head coach

Jaguars coach Urban Meyer, who has no experience of playing or coaching in the NFL, has hired a right-hand man who has (checking scores) no experience of playing or coaching in the NFL .

Former Louisville, Texas and South Florida coach Charlie Strong will join Meyer as an assistant head coach, according to multiple reports. He should also lead a post on team defense.

Meyer and Strong spent five years together in Florida, where Meyer was the head coach and Strong was the defensive coordinator.

The Jaguars are taking a calculated risk by handing the team over to a head coach with so little NFL experience. If it works (like Jimmy Johnson in Dallas 30 years ago) it will be great. If not, they can move on and try again with a different trainer. As they have been doing for over 20 years or so, since the dismissal of Tom Coughlin, the only coach in the team’s history with a winning record.
