Gators Football Still Haunts Scott Stricklin's Record

Florida athletic director Scott Stricklin faces a challenging task in finding a new football head coach after the firing of Billy Napier.

The hire could be the most important in the history of Florida athletics and may have significant implications for Stricklin's future at the institution.

Since his hiring in November 2016, Stricklin has seen 13 national championships across all UF athletics, including baseball in 2017 and men's basketball in April.

However, Florida football continues to disappoint under Stricklin, with a record of 61-46 in his tenure, a low standard for the university's historic success.

In comparison, the previous athletic director, Jeremy Foley, held a record of 239-82-1 in Florida football during his time from 1992-2016.

Who should be Florida football's next head coach?
