The last time we saw Ron Zook around these parts he was receiving the business end of one of the great Croomings of the Sylvester Croom era. After his dismissal from Florida, he headed north to fill the vacant head coach position at Illinois, who was in the market for a warm body. Now, he surfaces again, trying to answer a question and set a new record in the Guinness Book of World Records for most words crammed into 17 seconds of speech.
