On a very “inside baseball” note, Scott Stricklin, the UK sports media relations director, is leaving the University to take a position in athletic fundraising for Mississippi State University, his alma mater. Scott has done a great job with Media Relations during his time at UK and is one of the best people you will meet in such a position. Over the last few years, he has revolutionized the way UK deals with the newer types of media and he has been very successful in helping market UK sports, particularly basketball, in a more extensive way. Scott has also been very kind to those of us from this site and I can say without a doubt that if it were not for him, this site and my radio show, would not have the support and access that we have had. We wish Scott the best of luck at his new endeavor and he will most definitely be missed around these parts.
