Any doubt that Stricklin doesn't give a damn about us hiring help for Mullinz?
Old story from years ago, and Stricklin's comment about keeping up with large support staffs was......... wait for it...... baseball.
"The majority of our students on campuses who are student-athletes don't get full scholarships. Why is that never been an issue?" Stricklin asked. "We have baseball players and softball players and soccer players and a lot of track athletes who come on our campuses and they're having to take out student loans to be athletes on our campus, even if they're on scholarship because they're not on a full scholarship, [unlike the majority of football and men's basketball players].
"I don't think that's right."
Stricklin's former school, Mississippi State, has an SEC-low 16 support staff members. But he said he is "comfortable" with what the Gators are doing in football - the cash cow of every SEC athletic department.

That's what we have in our front office, boys. A guy who is only worried about baseball.
