The simplest explanation is usually correct. I think he wants the LSU job badly. Word gets out and UF takes a shot. Big one. But now he's on the cusp of the playoffs and it's not so easy to leave.
We win, he's gone in less than 12 hours. Probably LSU.
Lose? Going to be a tight 24 hours and all bets are off. He may just end up staying after all.
Rebs are better off him leaving; no matter what he says if he stays, they can't believe him. Then again, they may not care as long as he brings them wins before he leaves for the NFL.
Either way, 17 him. We got a golden (pun intended) opportunity here. Let's go bowling, then bowling again, and let the Rebs worry about life in the fast lane.
PS One benefit - If the Sumrall rumors are true, Cohen is sweating. Might see a double whammy to Stricklin and Cohen which would be nice.
BONUS PS - He stays, wins a playoff game or two, then bolts for the NFL when jobs come open on Black Monday, leaving Rebs stranded. Super nice.
