AUSTIN, Texas -- The losses keep coming for Charlie Strong, no matter what promises were made in the past.For the third year in a row, Strongs Texas Longhorns have lost at least five games, rekindling questions of whether the program has improved enough for him to earn a fourth year and another $5 million, or if the losing is just too much for one of the nations blue-blood schools to stomach.I look at how were playing. I dont ever make excuses. There are no excuses, Strong said Monday. The losses are mounting. Theres games we should win and we had our opportunity.Rewind to November 2014, when the Longhorns were 6-5 in Strongs first season and he boldly predicted that five losses will never happen in this program again. Texas finished that year 6-7, then went 5-7 and missed the postseason in 2015.The dreaded five-loss threshold was crossed again over the weekend with a 24-20 home loss to No. 10 West Virginia, when the Longhorns never led and couldnt win despite forcing four turnovers. Texas (5-5, 3-4 Big 12) still isnt bowl eligible with two games left at Kansas on Saturday and at home against TCU the Friday after Thanksgiving.Strong was asked how he would sell that his team is making progress if he were in a job evaluation.You still have a football team thats still competing, still playing hard. Thats what you like to see happening, Strong said.There are tangible improvements he could have noted.Texas has two wins over top 10 opponents Notre Dame and Baylor, even though neither program is anywhere near that lofty status any more. The offense under first-year coordinator Sterlin Gilbert and led by powerhouse running back DOnta Foreman, who averages 178 yards per game, is a complete turnaround from the previous two seasons. Other than Foreman, Texas best players have been sophomores and freshmen, including quarterback Shane Buechele, giving whoever coaches Texas in 2017 a bright future.Were a good team, Buechele said. Coach always says our record doesnt define us ... We can beat anybody.Even a defense that was bad early has improved once Strong took over the play-calling. The Longhorns rank among the best in the nation with 36 sacks.And gone are the blowouts of Strongs first two years, when his teams lost nine games by 18 points or more. Texas is 12 points from 8-2. They are also 12 points from 2-8.In other words, Strong is dancing on a razor-thin difference between dominant and disaster, only to find himself balancing on mediocre.Texas President Greg Fenves and athletic director Mike Perrin have publicly supported Strong all season. Fenves will look carefully at Strongs entire resume to decide if he gets a fourth season on a guaranteed five-year contract.The president will take a long look at it, Strong said. We still have two games left.Getting to a bowl game would be a good step forward, even if its still far short of the leap Texas fans -- and college football -- expected after a thrilling double-overtime win over Notre Dame in the season opener.We have to get to a bowl game, Strong said. Our seniors deserve to get to a bowl game.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 Steph Curry Shoes For Sale .

Two days after Harvards mens soccer team was suspended for the rest of its season for creating lewd scouting reports about members of the womens soccer team, the Harvard Crimson student newspaper has reported that another mens athletic program at the university made lewd comments about its female counterparts.According to The Crimson, the mens cross country team created yearly spreadsheets ahead of an annual dance with the womens team. In the spreadsheets, the men guessed which women would invite certain men to the dance, the report said, and some of the spreadsheets included comments, some sexually explicit, about the womens physical appearance.The Crimson report cited a spreadsheet from 2012 that contained specific comments about girls weight or appearance.Brandon E. Price, the mens cross country captain, told The Crimson he emailed members of the team Saturday afternoon asking the team to come clean with anything that we have typed down in the past. In the email, Price said he had shared a document that contains sexually explicit content about the girls team with the teams coach, Jason S.

Scalise said, Harvard Athletics does not tolerate this sort of demeaning and derogatory behavior, and we will address any credible information we receive.Rakesh Khurana, the dean of Harvard, said in a prepared statement that he did not know the details of the cross country spreadsheets.We must strive toward a culture and context of respect, dignity, and compassion -- and all of us have a role to play in that work, Khurana said.The Crimson report comes just days after the Harvard mens soccer team received a season-ending suspension after an investigation found the team created scouting reports in which members of the womens soccer team were rated on their perceived sexual appeal and physical appearance.
