Strickland comes to Shorter after seven seasons at his alma matter, NCAA FCS-member Jacksonville State where he was the receiver Graduate Assistant and quarterback Student Assistant. 
He was a student assistant at JSU in 2014, when the Gamecocks rolled to the Ohio Valley Conference title with a perfect 8-0 mark in league play.
He played a large role in helping JSU claim three OVC titles and just six OVC losses in four seasons, extending the Gamecocks’ streak of conference titles to an OVC-record five from 2014-18.
