Yup.... we talked about that on this thread weeks ago. One thing the gator board was overlooking was Stricklin hand picked Billy and he is coming back as an interim guy after Sasse fleeced them for millions. Last thing he is going to do is admit he screwed up with Billy, commit millions more to a different coach that he knows he wont be here to oversee and it will be the next guy's problem. Most interim presidents try to maintain status quo until a new guy gets there, not make major decisions or enter into years of contractual obligations.It makes sense. They need a new president who will then fire Strickland, whose replacement will then fire SlingBlade

As far as the timing and recruiting, this might be the worst coach retention announcement I’ve ever seenStricklin obviously did this in a belated and fruitless attempt to save the Kick-*** Kruitin' Klass...
