Of course he felt a certain inclination to stay but if the SEC program wooing him was one that was better set up within the conference for success then I am not so certain Strong would be playing that same PR card that he did this time.

Compare Louisville and Tennessee. Louisville will now be competing in a Major Conference that has a seat at the big boy table yet that conference is perceived as being much much weaker than the SEC. Louisville is primed to be extremely strong in the ACC for football. Tennessee is not in a similar situation in the SEC. It is a renovation project and the way Tennessee is currently set up in the SEC, it is not a favorable situation to be able to renovate. They have a yearly game against Alabama that they likely continue to get crushed in. Not good for recruiting. They continue to play Florida, Georgia and South Carolina every year and likely do not win. Not good for recruiting.

Louisville is actually a great place for Strong to stay and Tennessee is really not a great place to leave Louisville for. The feelings he has for Jurich and the University of Louisville are just the icing on the cake.
I'm not so sure about that. If it were up to SEC schools, Strong would still be an assistant coach at Florida. Louisville gave him a chance, and SEC schools passed him over time and again. Now that he's proven himself, he's not going to forget that, even if certain SEC programs hope otherwise. The only SEC school he might leave Louisville for is Florida...
