Louisville Divorce Case Seeking Records From Texas' Strong

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A divorce case involving a Louisville donor and trustee is seeking testimony and documentation from Texas football coach Charlie Strong.

The case involves Louisville trustee Jonathan Blue and wife Tracy Blue. Attorneys for Jonathan Blue want text messages and phone bills from Strong's cellphone as well as calendar, travel and other records. Strong was coach at Louisville from 2010-2013 before he was hired at Texas.

In a statement Sunday, Strong said he was recently informed of a marital dispute "between a couple I know."

Strong says he is "not a party to their divorce" and has received no court order. He said he would not comment further on the legal case.

Strong is one of several witnesses that Jonathan Blue wants deposed. Strong promised Texas fans the case would not interfere with team preparations for the 2016 season.
