It appears that Mississippi State is still searching for Scott Stricklin’s replacement, but they have found someone for at least the short term. Mississippi State’s President Mark Keenum has announced that they’ve named Scott Wetherbee to be the interim athletics director. Wetherbee is a senior associate athletics director and is in charge of external affairs.

Although Wetherbee is not the permanent replacement for Scott Stricklin (at least not yet), it is good that some move has been made while the search continues.
