Welp, let's see who them get

The first response is a flame. This board is the best.

YES!

I am surprised but giving him another year would only postpone the obvious.
Posted on 3/21/15 at 12:09 pm to Bryant91092
i'm dead serious.

Best thing they could've done. He inherited a really unfortunate situation but they were going nowhere in a hurry.
ETA: Won't be at all surprised if they reach out to UK's Kenny Payne either.

Yeah you could tell he wasn't going to get it done but 3 years is a quick hook for anyone.

He pocketed 4 mil plus for his troubles

That sucks but at the same time, it might've been worth cutting him loose ASAP to cull another year of damage to a program that could be at least decent.

Stricklin was feeling big heat. This is an important hire.

Deservedly so fire imo. Good move State
Posted on 3/21/15 at 12:14 pm to Bryant91092
Thank goodness we made this move now.

The national media is saying it was a bad decision but who cares what they think. I don't think y'all could make a worse hire than Ray so things should be looking up.

Kentucky is about to win as many games this season as Ray won in 3 years.

Sucks for Alabama that a better job opened up

quote:I think we did in 2012 but passed on him. He might tell us to go hell if we contact him again. He has been gone for close to 30 years. Not sure of his Mississippi ties any longer.
Won't be at all surprised if they reach out to UK's Kenny Payne either

Agreed.
Posted on 3/21/15 at 12:17 pm to Al Bundy Bulldog
Yeah he was a disaster. I wish you guys would have kept him another year
