Charlie Strong National Signing Day press conference open thread

The wild few weeks since being hired has culminated in the National Signing Day press conference for new Texas Longhorns head coach Charlie Strong, who will fortunately have some defensive tackles to talk about after the additions of Poona Ford and Chris Nelson to the class on Wednesday.

The press conference will air on the Longhorn Network and will be available for streaming here at 2 p.m. CT.

Follow along as Strong discusses a class that managed to fill some major needs at tight end, linebacker, along the offensive line, and at defensive tackle in the last month while combating a number of decommitments. Strong also managed to keep Jermaine Roberts and John Bonney in the fold in the final days, as well as Lorenzo Joe and the Foreman twins.

Some definite wins there for the new head coach.
