Coach Nutt is heading for greatness

[dj shanon "Notshavin" smeya]

He will get the credit being the head coach because that is the way it is.  In years to come we will hear what a great coach he was and who he really turned things around with his skill and we will all get sick at our stomachs.  But, it is nonetheless getting reay to be good again!!

Nope.  No credit.  Zero. 

He had nothing to do with turning this around.  He was forced to do it, against his wishes.  He wanted the $ and prestige so he sold out.  So no credit.

In fact, b/c of him, we almost lost MM and DW....not to mention Gus.

There are three reasons Houston Nutt still has a job:

(1) Given the state of our program before he arrived, the modest successes he has achieved are viewed as outstanding accomplishments;

(2) He's from Arkansas; and

(3) He is willing to play politics.

[Fire Numb Nutts!!!]

Just as in the case of Coach Broyles he has the young lion coaching staff that are very talented and this with his letting them coach will put him in the record books.  It happens over and over again in our society in many different ways. Men and women that were great delegators and wind up taking credit for others efforts.  Not right but that is the way it is.

Now comes Coach Nutt who has tried to plow the field by himself for several and he couldn't get it done. He has help now and is being demonstrated that he, rather than being a micro manager he is letting the doers do and that will pay many dividends to him in the future.  He will go down in the books as one of the greatest coaches ever at Arkansas and even perhaps in the nation although that might be a little stretch.

Mark it down by golly.

I like your attitude....  Why not!?!
Listen to your elders kidos....

You poor, deluded old fools.

It is strange to hear so many holding out hope that Kentucky would even consider hiring Houston Nutt as a head FB coach.  In Kentucky they know how bad their football program is, they know better than anyone how pathetic a coach has to be that cannot show a winning record vs Kentucky.  After Houston was at Murrry State with a NFL bound QB and NG from the Hawg roster, (lots of tampering rumors around those), he melted the phone lines trying to bs his way into an interview for the job that eventually went to H. Mumme.  Kentucky had their priorities right, hire anyone, even Mumme, but refuse to even grant Houston an interview.  Kentucky does not covet Houston Nutt and will not interview him in the future.

Nebraska went to the very edge of the abyss, and was rescued only by the misguided egos of JFB and JL.  The only chance Houston had at LSU existed in his own delusional self promoting mind.  His only high D-1 option left is to hang on here by any strategum and continue to vacuum 1.5 + Mill from our pockets for as long as he can play out the string.

Though Charles Darwin spent the last years of his life refining and defending his theory, Houston Nutts tenure at Arkansas has disproved it once and for all.

nure at Arkansas has disproved it once and for all.

I'm not a fan of Houston Nutt.  Let me make that clear.   However, this is a huge load of crap.

Where do I start.   Yes, Kentucky did hire Mumme when Nutt clearly wanted the chance to make the jump.  That part is true, although Nutt was interviewed.   I wonder if Kentucky would like to rethink that choice today?  Mumme gave them a couple of average season behind Tim Couch, and proceeded to cheat Kentucky into sanctions they may not recover from in 15 years.  His replacement, Guy Morriss felt the situation post-Mumme was so bad he left Kentucky for..............Baylor of all places.  Yes, the same team that was the laughing stock of the Big 12.  While I don't think much of Nutt, he certainly could have done as well as Mumme and not crippled the program by cheating.

Now, as the Rich Brooks era seems on it's last leg, you are absolutely foolish if you dont' think Kentucky would seriously consider Nutt if Brooks is dismissed at the end of 2006.   Remember, the previous coach left for Baylor of all places.  Brooks has crashed and burned.  The program, which is FAR from being even average in football prowess, is still realing from the crippling effect of the "great" Mumme choice.

Is Houston Nutt a good choice for LSU?  Absolutely not.

Is Houston Nutt an OUTSTANDING choice for Kentucky?  You better believe it.

Kentucky will know better this time if they have the chance..........

And Arkansas will be the better for it as well.

Where do I start.   Yes, Kentucky did hire Mumme when Nutt clearly wanted the chance to make the jump.  That part is true, although Nutt was interviewed.   I wonder if Kentucky would like to rethink that choice today?  Mumme gave them a couple of average season behind Tim Couch, and proceeded to cheat Kentucky into sanctions they may not recover from in 15 years.  His replacement, Guy Morriss felt the situation post-Mumme was so bad he left Kentucky for..............Baylor of all places.  Yes, the same team that was the laughing stock of the Big 12.  While I don't think much of Nutt, he certainly could have done as well as Mumme and not crippled the program by cheating.

Now, as the Rich Brooks era seems on it's last leg, you are absolutely foolish if you dont' think Kentucky would seriously consider Nutt if Brooks is dismissed at the end of 2006.   Remember, the previous coach left for Baylor of all places.  Brooks has crashed and burned.  The program, which is FAR from being even average in football prowess, is still realing from the crippling effect of the "great" Mumme choice.

Is Houston Nutt a good choice for LSU?  Absolutely not.

Is Houston Nutt an OUTSTANDING choice for Kentucky?  You better believe it.

Kentucky will know better this time if they have the chance..........

And Arkansas will be the better for it as well.

What is a huge load of crap is that any D1 school in their right mind would hire this nincompoop after doing any sort of research other than polling the members of the church he attends.

He will be lucky to ever coach ANYWHERE again, which I hope he does, as long as that means he gets his ass out of Arkansas and frees us from this hellish nightmare.

And btw, if you think after everything we have seen that Dale is D1 coaching material, then you ARE a Nutt fan, whether you like it or not, b/c you are not being objective..

[Landonhog]

It is strange to hear so many holding out hope that Kentucky would even consider hiring Houston Nutt as a head FB coach.  In Kentucky they know how bad their football program is, they know better than anyone how pathetic a coach has to be that cannot show a winning record vs Kentucky.  When Houston was at Murrry State with a NFL bound QB and NG from the Hawg roster, (lots of tampering rumors around those), he melted the phone lines trying to bs his way into an interview for the job that eventually went to H. Mumme.  Kentucky had their priorities right, hire anyone, even Mumme, but refuse to even grant Houston an interview.  Kentucky does not covet Houston Nutt and will not interview him in the future.

Settle down Francis...   

[HONDAHOG]

I thought hiring all these coaches was his last chance at keeping his job. I am not 100% on this, and I know it isn't true in every situation, but it seems to me that when there is a big staff change and it doesn't work out, that the coach gets fired after the next season.

[PigMan]

Looks to me like some of you guys are not really good fans in the first place. You will never be happy unless there is something to bitch about. But then that is the way some are made up.  Pigpusher was just trying to express a positive thought and some are treating him like he is the lowest of life just because he has an opposing view to your own. 

I am sure as hell glad that I don't have to call any of the offenders here my friend that is for sure.  If you are an example of a good Hog fan I would be embarrassed as your not one from this vantage.  Hear hear and go Hogs..

A dozen Karma to you sir Mr. Pigpusher.

Dale has convinced you that you need to do that.  I will not, Mr. Oklahoma.

[HognotinMemphis]

Just as in the case of Coach Broyles he has the young lion coaching staff that are very talented and this with his letting them coach will put him in the record books.  It happens over and over again in our society in many different ways. Men and women that were great delegators and wind up taking credit for others efforts.  Not right but that is the way it is.

Now comes Coach Nutt who has tried to plow the field by himself for several and he couldn't get it done. He has help now and is being demonstrated that he, rather than being a micro manager he is letting the doers do and that will pay many dividends to him in the future.  He will go down in the books as one of the greatest coaches ever at Arkansas and even perhaps in the nation although that might be a little stretch.

Mark it down by golly.

I think you are on (to) something.

[PigMan]

At least he is not insultinig you praise the Lord. But, then again you are not willing to listen with respect to other viewpoints. It is only your viewpoint that matters.  That is what is so sad. He never attacked you one time, but you were all over him. 

Here's some nice lemon yellow Kool Aid that is still warm.  Want some?

Believe me, he has attacked us plenty of times.....

Where would you like me to begin?

With "I called that play" or "he should've scored"?

[GuvHog]

I would dare say that it can be determined that most great coaches have great assistants. If they didn't it would be an impossible situation for the coach with all the things that have to happen in developing a team. We all are quite aware of Coach Nutt's weaknesses and even his strength if we would be honest with ourselves.  The natural thing would have been for the powers to just release him, but they decided not to do that and Coach Nutt will be the lucky one for that decision.

I have been following Hog ball for many many years and never have I seen a time other than the sixties that we have had a setup like we have now .  I am excited and I would bet Coach Nutt is also as he can see good things getting ready to happen to his watch.  I am one that strongly believes at this point he is not going to do anything to mess it up including butting in during games.  Most in the state probably believe he instituted the new hires and perhaps he did. Either way he will get the credit and the main glory to come that I wholeheartedly believe is coming.

Fine, you have your opinion which has been proven wrong but you are still entitled to it.  However, you don't have to keep reminding us all of the hellish nightmare we are living with this egotistical, incompetent and divisive man by calling Dale "Coach Nutt" and therefore reminding us that he still holds the top coaching position at the U of A.

Exactly WHICH statement in his opinion has been proven wrong?

[hogwildinhouston]

Dale has convinced you that you need to do that.  I will not, Mr. Oklahoma.

Your apparent unrivaled hated of Nutt has blinded you so much that you can't even use reason.  I'm not sure about anyone else, but I'm not arguing that Nutt is a good coach.   However, to act as though Nutt is the dumbest human to ever set foot on a football field, as you are doing, is just crazy.  Despite all you say, in 9 seasons as a D1A head coach, Nutt is at 59% in wins.  This includes 2 losing seasons at Ark, and one at Boise.  However, he's had 3 9 wins seasons and 1 8 win season.  As a reference, the great Coach Fran everyone loved a few years ago is at 54%

Has he done as well as he could?   Hell no.   Do I think he's the best Arkansas can do?  Hell no. 

Is he a complete football retard as you seem to think?  Hell no.

Sorry Francis....  I'm just tryin to have a little fun with ya....  I jumped in on this one for the same reason Pigman just did...  PigPusher is an older alum, and myself and others have a great deal of respect for him...  Just hate seeing an "old" hog fan's optimism stomped away...  Sorry. 
I don't consider myself a hugger, but I'll always defend the optimistic...

Well, that "optimism" (blindness that Jesus won't heal) is one reason why we are still stuck with an incompetent head coach that we need to get rid of.

I have posted on this board for months asking people who've made the same statement as you to show me proof that the hires were forced. I have not seen any proof whatsoever. If you'd care to state some, I'm waiting.
