Last time I checked he took us to 6 straight bowl games.  I realize there were no BCS Bowls, but it is a lot more than we can say about Danny Ford.  I have no problem with Nutt, my only gripe about him was that he couldn't call plays worth crap.  But that has been taken care off since Malzahan got hired.  Yes there are better coaches in the world, but I have never seen someone motivate a team like him.  And besides I don't see any of you guys coaching a college football program.  So if you haters seriously think that you could do better than why aren't you coaching a D1 program?

HDN deserves every bit of flack he takes on this message board and others.

If the Hogs were to go 13-0, he'd get all the accolades.....4-7 last year?

Deserved.

Oh let me count the reasons why we bash him.  Wait... there really isn't enough room in here to go into all the details.

Lord help me, I should stay away from this.  What the heck, we're still in the off-season...

Why bash Nutt?  Let's look at the record...

9-3
8-4
6-6
7-5
9-5
9-4
5-6
4-7

That record, combined with a losing record in the SEC, will get you fired at Tennessee, Georgia, LSU, Florida, Auburn, and Alabama.  If P-Fat finishes 4-7 at Tennessee this season, then he will be thrown out of Neyland. 

That same record at Kentucky, Vanderbilt, Mississippi State, South Carolina, and Ole Miss (more often than not) would keep you fairly comfortable.

Which group do you think Arkansas should belong to?  Are we in the SEC to serve as cannon fodder?  Or are we in it to consistently compete for championships against the best?

Some of us expect better results from a coach entering his 9th year at Arkansas.  Simple as that.

Fans bash Nutt because they are not happy with the results his football teams have produced.

Well, wolfie, I can see you haven't been on this board for long. So I'll tell you, the Nutt-bashing has slowed way down.

You ask why everyone ALWAYS bashes on Nutt? We don't ALWAYS.
If you'll watch, you will notice that a LOT of the Nutt-bashing only comes when some Nutt-hugger starts a thread trying to tell us how great the Nuttcase is. It's all been said, a lot of posters like me are sick of it.

You don't like the Nutt-bashing? Then think about this old saying:

I criticize Nutt simply because I am mean, bitter and have nothing else better to do.

He really doesn't deserve any of it, I just simply hate him as a person.

I have noticed that alot of the Nutt Bashing has slowed with the hiring of GM to call the plays. That seemed to be the big thing.

Some people here just don't like Nutt at all though. We could win the National Championship this year and I am sure some wouldn't give Nutt any credit at all. As a matter of fact, I could actually picture the posters that would be pissed because it would mean he would be here longer. Some people just like to have something to gripe about.

You are so right, man that was such a great idea of his to hire Gus, he was on board with it from the beginning, it wasn't because of HDN that we almost lost Mitch, HDN is such a great coach and man, he has us headed in the right direction.  People that have complaints about him have no basis whatsoever to do so.

Just an example of people that like to complain. I agree with your analysis on almost losing Mitch and Gus, but they are both here now. They probably wouldn't be here if Nutt would have gotten fired and Butch was here.

If indeed there are those fans who wouldn't give Nutt any credit at all, that is because of what they have witnessed over the last eight years.

One fan's definition of success is another fan's definition of failure.  I have no idea why that is such a difficult concept for some people to comprehend.

Dear old "wolfwhatever" it would take less space for you to give all the reasons why Nutt is good, then for us to start with the thing that guys like you hate the most, ....FACTS...!  If you are satisfied with 6 bowl appearances with two losing seasons, and that is your standard for success, then you can rave about HDN, and bask in the glory of "medocre" college athletics, but you'll find little sympathy here.  I'm tired of looking up at the good teams.

Believe it or not, I am not a Nutt supporter. I am a supporter of the program and what makes the program better. I wasn't happy with Nutt calling the plays. However, now that GM is here, I am satisfied. For those that don't like Nutt, you may as well get used to him. He isn't going anywhere anytime soon. I have accepted that and am fine as long as someone else is calling the plays.

Don't you think it's a little premature to be "satisfied," since we haven't played a game yet? 

Seems to me your satisfaction is based on facts not yet in evidence.

It's amazing at the psycic people out there, that are satisfied since the hire of Malzahn, because they know that we are simply going to be champions because of it.  Heck, I'm not even convinced that he will be calling the plays!  They say so, but since when do we have reason to believe the stuff that comes from the Broyles Center?

It's time to put up or shut up!

Hawg_Heaven, I think there would be several kids throughout the country who would be willing to listen to Butch Davis regardless of the program he takes control of in the future.   Building the program that would eventually win a national title and compete for another the next season does nothing but enhance your reputation.

If Nutt could get that Crystal Football to Fayetteville, then I would be as thrilled as the foremost hugger.  It isn't anything personal.  For me, it simply comes down to a matter of wins and losses.  If a head coach can't get it done after 9 years on the job, then it might be time to seek a new line of employment.

And that last sentence leads to another question:

What constitutes getting the job done at Arkansas?

Some will look at a 7-5 record and proclaim the season a success.

Exactly. No doubt that if we go 7-5 some of us will proclaim the season a success and be all excited about ordering tickets to some minor bowl game.

Others of us (including me) will deem a 7-5 season to be a failure.

It's all about the expectations that each of us have for the program; it's all about how we each define success.

Honestly, after the last two seasons. If we don't go atleast 8-4 this year, Nutt should go. In all likelyhood, I am being gracious because 9-3 sounds better. He hired Malzahn. I am happy. I don't know if he will be our savior or a good play caller. All I know is that anything is better than last year. So, until we start losing games that we shouldn't lose, I won't rant about Nutt. I will stand behind him. Apparantly from what everyone is saying, Gus is running the offense in practice.

weevilhogg

A prime example of why we bash Nutt came a few days ago -- right after DMac's injury was discovered.  KATV had short interviews with each coach.  Nutt hem hawed around and threw out idiotic cliches such as "our guys are special" and "we have to take it to another level."    Herring looked like everyone's crazy uncle. . . which is cool because he really is crazy.   Then there was Malzhan ---- cool, calm, collected, and focused.  He explained that the Hogs had a gameplan and were going to execute it with or without Dmac.   I found myself wondering which guy was really the head coach.

Oh my!

I'm conflicted on this myself, Hawg_Heaven.

On the one hand, I've got a mountain of evidence from years past.   We've got a coach who has done it his way for more than a decade.  It doesn't take long for a coach to become set in his ways, especially a coach who believes in his offensive system.

On the other hand, I hear and read about how the new staffers on offense will be left to their own devices to come up with a system incorporating Malzahn/Wood/Nutt plays.  I hear Nutt say over in Hoover that it will essentially be left to Malzahn.  I hear Malzahn say the superior playmakers will be put on the field in various positions to make plays offensively.  I want to believe.  But to be honest, I will not buy it completely until I see it in person in live action.

I guess it all leads to a stance of guarded optimism during this pre-season.  I'm hoping Nutt can show me some change this year.  It'll make him a better coach and improve our prospects dramatically this year.

Last time I checked he took us to 6 straight bowl games.  I realize there were no BCS Bowls, but it is a lot more than we can say about Danny Ford.  I have no problem with Nutt, my only gripe about him was that he couldn't call plays worth crap.  But that has been taken care off since Malzahan got hired.  Yes there are better coaches in the world, but I have never seen someone motivate a team like him.  And besides I don't see any of you guys coaching a college football program.  So if you haters seriously think that you could do better than why aren't you coaching a D1 program?

Nutt is coaching because that's all he can do...it's all he's ever done. Most of us chose more reliable vocational paths for our careers such as  teaching, doctoring, banking, lawyering, etc. Nutt hit the gold mine with the U of A in '98. Fact is, he has a losing conference record for his entire 8 year career at Arkansas and he has a losing conference record at Fayetteville over his 8 years at U of A. That's the bottom line and that's why he's bashed by many. It's simply a lack of meaningful wins and a lack of conference wins. For every win over a Texas, there is a loss to a Vandy AND a getting bent over by a USC or Tenn or Ga. It's just unacceptable to most fans but apparently is okay by Broyles and the other powers that be.

Everyone bashes Nutt, because we are tired of being the middle of the road SEC team. We want to be compared to LSU and the Georgia, not Ole Miss and South Carolina. Although I believe both us and South Carolina are working to get towards the top.

NOOOOOOO.....  Doesn't talking about HDN get old with anyone else but me???  I don't want to hear why he is great and I don't want to hear why he sucks.  Talk to me at the end of this season and we will talk about how good he is at managing hands-off.  If that isn't the case then we can talk about why he needs to be fired.  Anything else that could possibly be said about the man has been said by both side a freakin' billion times.

Responses to this post will go one of two ways, hopefully everyone will just lay off of you, since you havent posted often........whether people are  pro Dale or con Dale everyone  prefers to see posts that are not full of sentences that havent already been used a million times on here ...........and practically word for word.......hate to tell you but posting that is about like wearing a leisure suit, its just wrong..........

What he said.

HDN deserves every bit of flack he takes on this message board and others.

If the Hogs were to go 13-0, he'd get all the accolades.....4-7 last year?

Deserved.

People here won't give Nutt much credit.  They will say it's all because of Malzahn, Wood, and Herring.

And we would be right.

Why would he suddenly be good after 8 years?  Because of the forced hires.

Man, I get sucked into these threads every time!  What can I say...I hate ignoring wrong thinking.


Why would he suddenly be good after 8 years?
Because he's finally doing what he should have done 8 years ago.

Forced Hires? Well, you're half right.
I've just recently been told that Hiring GM as recievers coach was H. Nutt's Idea, but
making him OC was Franks Idea. I think AW was a little of both.

Didn't say it was fact, just what I heard.

Was it the same people that told you that Steve Sullivan was going to be the PBP man this year?

You have a ton of credibility on here so I am glad you told us "just what you heard".
