So it looks as if Jeremy Foley has fleeced the entire SEC and picked the pocket of commissioner Greg Sankey. Clever guy, that “Diamond Jim” Foley.
Of course, Florida’s athletic director slow-played everybody, knowing full well Tennessee was going to lose to Texas A&M and that Gators coach Jim McElwain needed more time for his injured defensive line to heal. Foley also knew Hurricane Matthew wasn’t really a threat to north-central Florida and that there would be plenty of emergency personnel available after all.
Maybe Florida-LSU will yet be played, but meanwhile, I’m surprised and a little amused at some of the whining, cheap shots and pure fantasy that I’ve read and heard about how this diabolical plot unfolded.
