Perrin has made more elaborate comments on Strong Strong before this, but "no comment" can be very telling. If Perrin's support was still there for Strong, why didn't he just give it then and there with the media as a witness?
If Texas does fire Charlie Strong, it's going to cost them. Strong's buyout if $10 million if fired during or at the end of this season.
