I'll go on the record as saying Barta will officially fire Lickliter on Tuesday.
I still believe, and we'll probably never know, that Barta's intention was to have Lickliter "resign" citing health reasons, but Lickliter, being the stubborn man he is, made sure to say in his post-game presser that he's "healthy", even though no one asked him about it. That guy made a career at Iowa of making things more difficult than they needed to be. Even during pre & post game Q&A with Dolphin, Dolphin would serve up softballs and Lick would pass. Oh well, he'll get a decent buyout and serve out the remainder of his career as a mid-major assistant.
