This Just In

[The Broadcaster]

Just heard that Stan Heath WILL BE FIRED the day the team gets back from the SEC Tournament. This is coming from a reliable source who works close to the team. Please don't delete this post because it is not a rumor it is a fact that was told to a reporter for a NW Arkansas paper.

Why wait?

[RhodeHog]

Why wait?

To give Stan a little dignity.  He's a really nice guy, just out of his league in the SEC.  This season is a wash anyway.

Lets see, 10 win FB season VS sub 500 BB season with 1 road win. Not hard to figure out.

[darth sooie]

IF he is gonna get fired, i'd do it after the vandy game but I'd still accept an NIT bid and let him coach the team... why cause the team could use the practice and maybe show some *** dignity + i'd let stan use it for his resume

Quit saying this!!!!  Houston just had a 10-4 season and 7-1 in SEC...Stan is 5-9 in SEC enough said!

[BigArkyintheRock]

The sooner the better as far as I'm concerned. Wish the UofA would pull the trigger today.

[SemperFi]

I've been very quiet about Stan and HDN and although I think that HDN is still the man to coach the football team, Stan Heath on the other hand just stinks as a Coach. He can recruit, but he can't or won't instill any mental toughness or desire to win in his teams. I say goodbye and good riddance!

[trufanofhogs]

Do it this afternoon.

[Bomis Hawg]

Glad this "fact" is reported.

[chiefsfan]

I bet Stan doesnt get fired if they win the SEC tournament


But otherwise, he can borrow Nutt's UHAUL

[BartIV]

Two years before Houston Nutt had a 5-6 and 4-7 season and this year didn't win the Bowl game. Houston accomplished nothing this year, 10-4 thanks to Herring and Gus, thats if Gus was allowed to call the offense completely.

[3kgthog]

What if the other teams forfeit and the Hogs win the SECT? Are they still going to fire him then? Just sayin'. 

[MikeCapshaw]

Both Stan and Houston should be fired, but Stan will get the boot first.

[missippihog]

Then you would have to had fired him then. You can't wait until he has a great season then fire him. That is just idiotic.

[BartIV]

Fire Stan and Nutt at same time, then there is no controversy. If they fire Stan and Not Nutt, say what you want, it will be a nolan Richardson trial all over again, as it should.

Also houston said it would be down years and everybody knew we didn't have the talent.  Do you see Stan telling anybody that we would have a down year?? NO!  He said we should make it to the tourney again and hopefully go farther.  And talent wise these teams are different.  Basketball team has more talent than South car, ole miss, miss st, auburn, georgia and we still lose to them anyways.  Please dont tell me that in football we have more talent than florida and LSU..if you actually believe that then give me some of that koolaid.

All of this is true, but Houston was not fired to two consecutive losing seasons, after being here 7 years.  Double standard.  Good ole boy network.  Those come to mind.

Heath is gonna get fired?  WOW!!!  Ya don't say???  I'm glad you brought this to the table or else I never woulda thunk it.

[3hogs]

they cant win one game in the sect. do it now!

[PigWig]

Heath has ABSOLUTELY no grounds for any sort of lawsuit against the university. I have been calling for Houston's head for a while now but if you look at the record, Houston Nutt is a more successful coach than Stan Heath. End of story. Heath is a better person, but class doesn't win games or fill seats.

Double standard is BS.. Heath has lost alt more than Nutt.  NCAA or bust(fired)

If i was a coach, I would say it is a down year, every year, then I wouldn't worry about loosing my job. Excuses are like @$$holes, they both stink.

If Dickey Nutt was our basketball coach would he get the axe under these same circumstances?  I doubt it.

[WilsonHog]

Fire Stan and Nutt at same time, then there is no controversy. If they fire Stan and Not Nutt, say what you want, it will be a nolan Richardson trial all over again, as it should.

No, it won't. There is a simple equation here.

Lawsuit = End of coaching career.

Your'e right it sucks that Stan will get the shaft and the idiot Nutt is going to get another year.  It is just the politics of it all.  Nutt got in good with the right people and is just now getting dug out.  I think Nutt should have been fired yesterday but there is not very much we can do about it.  Just keep the pressure on him and hope that things play out the way they should.  As far as Heath goes I am just ready for the program to move on.  From the Nolan trial to the past 5 years it has been very hard on everybody.

[TransAmHawg]

10-1 with Gus and MM involved. 0-3, 1-3 if you count the Mistake game, for Dale's offense with Casey Dick as Qb. Dale's record overall stinks! Stan is not the man but Dale is the dork and should go job hunting with Stan, too.
  We deserve to be a top 20 team in both sports year after year. It isn't that hard to see the problems with both if you just look. We've got to do something soon on both counts. 
  FIRE THEM ALL!!!!!!!

Now I know who coined that phrase "Thank God for Mississippi".  It was Houston Nutt.

Houston is gone soon for different reasons. We cannot let him off and ignore him due to Stan.

But Stan's gone and it has nothing to do with race.

I agree completely. All I'm saying is the "lawsuit" claims are complete garbage.

That's strike one and two.

Give me a reason to pull the trigger.

[BartIV]

Stan Heath has accomplished just as much as Houston Nutt - nothing.
10-4 (71% winning percentage) great, where is our trophy for this great season.

[TMc]

Comparing Stan and Houston is ridiculous to me. Stan is not winning "winable" games against inferior competition .  Still can't inbounds the ball against the press or much less break the press half the time. No mental toughness on the road. He has got to go.  There is no comparison.

Heath is not going to sue the university. There is no case.  He has no hardware and there is no specific example that he was racially discriminated.  Besides Heath can't even chew out a ref, how is this guy going to sue a major university?

Houston Nutt can't develope Qb's and has no passing game. there is a comparison.

[bphi11ips]

In all seriousness, in light of Houston Nutt's record in 2004 and 2005, if we fire Stan Heath we damn sure better replace him with an African-American coach.  Otherwise Stan will be able to establish a prima facie case of racial discrimination in employment.

4-7 and 5-6....but I guess that was OK, right?  We'll just forget about that and give Stan the boot when he does bad....I know Nutt can do no wrong in your eyes.
