                           He's Wrong. if we find out that he and his brother were behind sending an email like that to one of his own players. he should be fired on the spot. PERIOD! this guy got it wrong.

First, Mandel doesn't have a clue. 

Second, if mistreating Mustain in the way a majority (not a minority) of informed fans think he did is not a firing offense, then I can't think of a good reason to fire a coach. 

Third, who cares what Nutt did with DB?  I don't, but to those who believe it is a legitimate issue, Mandel didn't think getting a lap dance was a firing offense either.  See this link:
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/inside_game/stewart_mandel/news/2003/05/03/mandel_price/

The Alabama athletic department disagreed.  What's worse - a lap dance or adultery?

[malzhanista]

The writer called the broyles complex, spoke with trainer for a few minutes, and puked up that column.
That writer is uninformed.
You huggers do not enjoy that excuse.

[forrest city joe]

                    The question is,were Nutt and his brother Danny behind the email TP sent to Mitch. if that is found to be the case and nutt is not fired for it. something is very wrong in fayetteville, and in college football.

They are all fireable offenses when your salary, cell phone, computer, etc... are funded with public money.  The taxpayers will hold him accountable.  We are not a minority, Nutt supporters are.....

Of course adultery is a fireable offense.  He is a roll model for 18-22 year old boys in a public institution.  Nutt doesn't get it, but he is a role model and a bad one at that!

What if it found that were not behind the email? where do we go from their? Will they ever listen to us again? gentleman if this back fires, he will be here a long time.

Clearly an attempt to divert Arkansas from the cleansing of their football program through negative press and a dilluting of the truth.

I think that if those things are found true than he should be fired, but i agree with this writer that to the outside world all of this is making our program look bad. regardless of whose fault it is. if we lose nutt we will not get better at this rate. Oh and by the way. this adultery thing just needs to be dropped. first of all it is none of our business, it is a family matter, second we have not even the slightest bit of proof. these rumors of adultery are nothing but people who hate nutt. i am fine with investigating the MM thing because that is something you need to know about a coach and something that is school related. His personal matters no matter how wrong they are, are not our business. we need to just back off there. But i do think we need to keep looking at all the facts keep digging in the mm case but try not to make it so public. We want someone to be able to come after nutt who can win games.

Yes, Mr. 108 posts, and you are steeped in knowledge of all that has "allegedly" gone on? Back up dude...........I have as much right to my opinion as you have to yours, without you getting kinda nasty about it. Limit your comments to what you "think" instead of taking shots at others.......you will find that your opinions will be more respected. As for your allegation that "this would have been settled weeks ago", apparently you are unfamiliar with how the law works. Give it time. I want it all settled, one way, or the other.........I just want to move on to football season.

Just my take.

Use of his state provided cellphone and not upholding NCAA bylaws regarding his athletes are definitely grounds for dismissal.  And face it:  many people lose jobs for personal misconduct while on the clock and untruthfulness.

So this is your case for firing Nutt.    This happens at every major University in the nation except for Joe Pa and Florida State.  The coach's there are not as hip. 
Do you think the new NCAA laws regarding the use of cell phones are just because of HN.  Are you going to be the Cell police and hall monitor for the Razorbacks....please give it a rest.

I was speaking of the bylaws regarding taking care of his players, not cellphones.

Understood.  Then why has there not been more of an outcry from the "players" over the years about Nutt not taking care of the players.  I will judge him over his career not just one "Momma's boy".    The evidence(that the vocal minority) likes to uses supports my opinion.

[charleyhog]

PROVE ANYTHING  you talk about, Not that there was some emails we now that, WHEN did nutt know about them, was he behind them? PROVE IT. Was nutt having an affair? PROVE IT

You do have the right to your opinion, but thats ALL it is

Nutts needs to provide proof of his innocence and this all goes away.  Just hand over the computers, Bozo, and whatever else is asked for and establish the fact that you are right.

Anyone with a working knowledge of football can see that on his best day he is a mediocre coach, and should be released for just that. 

I will leave it to others to fight to prove the email connection.  I want him gone for football reasons.  So, no I haven't.  I just think it is funny when the bah bah group want to say "prove it!" then make HdN out to be a victim when people go out and try to prove it.

I have found no one that has tried to prove hdn involvement with anything other than trying to discredit his character. Give me evidence supporting the allegations, until then telling me he is a liar doesn't sway my opinion, dont tell me to open my eyes and see the truth when no information has any concrete foundation or proof. Thank you for the honest answer.

[Shizzle]

Best team in 30 years? (don't smoke out of this clown's pipe) I believe we have 4-5 of the best players we have had in 30 years but I doubt seriously that we will be the team we had last year. I cannot fathom that our passing game has regressed to this point. I don't remember the exact year Clint Stoerner graduated but I would be willing to bet from that season to now I would say 7-9 years the passing trend in the NCAA as a whole has increased 20-25% while Arkansas passing game has regressed 35-40%. I see nothing in our future that would indicate change in the next couple of years, unless Youngblood can come in and go as a freshman in 2008.

I don't remember asking you to open your eyes.  I do think that someone should get to the bottom of who really sent, forwarded, and knew of the emails.  I think that is very important.  People are trying to prove it legally.  I don't think trying to find out what was said back and forth between HdN and TP is trying to discredit his character.  His answers have been all over the place on that subject.  Most now, cannot just take his word that he didn't know anything.

Give me evidence supporting the allegations, until then telling me he is a liar doesn't sway my opinion, dont tell me to open my eyes and see the truth when no information has any concrete foundation or proof. Thank you for the honest answer.

The evidence is in HDN's possession.  Why doesn't he just put all people involved out of misery?  And, he and his lawyers are choosing to do anything to not have his hard drive released.  HIS HARD DRIVE COULD SAVE HIM AND MAKE HIM A HERO IF HE IS TELLING THE TRUTH.

HE has the POWER to put this all to rest...to prove these accusations are wrong regarding his wife, his friend, his brother, his brother's PT, who knows how many others?  I'm not going to ask you to open your eyes, but I am going to ask you, if these were family and friends, and/or family-friends, why doesn't HE give proof that what is being said is NOT TRUE? 

Why would you put your family and friends through this if you could nip it in the bud?  That is what bothers me.  He can stop this at any moment he wants...the ball is in his field...and he has chosen not to.  And I respect your opinion, but am a very concerned fan.  LHB

CT, What do you mean no proof, go back and read the hundreds of pages that are full of imfo, also wait, you will be suprized, now go back and lay down.

Anyone else see the irony in them asking us to prove HdN had any knowledge of the TP email...then get mad when we try to prove it?

How have you tried to prove it?

While I think HdN did have knowledge...and IF he did, then he should be fired and his office cleaned out for him...not even allowing him back in the building, that is not my reason for wanting him gone.

Anyone with a working knowledge of football can see that on his best day he is a mediocre coach, and should be released for just that. 

I will leave it to others to fight to prove the email connection.  I want him gone for football reasons.  So, no I haven't.  I just think it is funny when the bah bah group want to say "prove it!" then make HdN out to be a victim when people go out and try to prove it.

I don't remember asking you to open your eyes.  I do think that someone should get to the bottom of who really sent, forwarded, and knew of the emails.  I think that is very important.  People are trying to prove it legally.  I don't think trying to find out what was said back and forth between HdN and TP is trying to discredit his character.  His answers have been all over the place on that subject.  Most now, cannot just take his word that he didn't know anything.

I wasn't trying to take shots at you. That was more of an open statement that you were attached to.

I'm sorry.  I didn't mean to make it sound like I thought you were.  I just wanted you to know that I was not attacking you.  Sorry if it came across like that.

Hey hooty, you can only dream of the money that Mommas Boy will make, naw, you cant even dream that high.

I was speaking of the bylaws regarding taking care of his players, not cellphones.

Understood.  Then why has there not been more of an outcry from the "players" over the years about Nutt not taking care of the players.  I will judge him over his career not just one "Momma's boy".    The evidence(that the vocal minority) likes to uses supports my opinion.

[pigs rule]

                           He's Wrong. if we find out that he and his brother were behind sending an email like that to one of his own players. he should be fired on the spot. PERIOD! this guy got it wrong.

I think many things about this whole situation could have been handled better, but there is no evidense that HDN or Danny had anything to do with that. You are the one that got it wrong!
And you are simply ignoring the fact that the rest of the nation looks at Razorback nation as a bunch of crazies. You can deny that(which many people keep doing) but that doesn't change the perception.
And you can not tell me that this garbage is not hurting the program and will in all likelihood adversely affect recruiting.

what could be their greatest team in 30 years this coming season, one that includes the best player in the country, Darren McFadden."

That part of the article is absolutely right on.......and that is why people are so upset and angry.  Why would any coach in their right mind be so self destructive??

The fans will not be blocking, tackling, or scoring points.  The coaches will not be on the field.  So, yes....we are upset when when the head coach acts like an idiot.

I live in Destin, FL and in Healthcare.   I don't know about you, but I'm not complaining....
MM will never start at USC(aka University of Spoiled Children).  Hopefully he's good with a clip board.

Musk = You do have a right to your opinion, even if it is wrong.  I have been hearing the "give it time" for months...still waiting.   When it comes to the type of allegations(aka GOSSIP) of affairs, you need to provide evidence not a script(your opinion) for General Hospital.  

First of all, self righteous one, you are not qualified to judge whether my opinion is right or wrong. Second, I didn't make an allegation, I said, I didn't care and just wanted to move on to football season. Based on all I have observed, do I think that our HC is a man of character? No. Do I know for a fact? No. That is why it is called "an opinion". And as you have already agreed, I have a right to that. Having said that, the next time I need your acidic laden opinion correcting me, I'll scrape it off the sole of my shoe.

You are welcome to your opinion, but if it entails trying to slam someone else for their opinion, I suggest you examine why it is necessary for you to do so, in order to make you feel better about yourself, prior to doing so.

Just my take.

There is circumstantial evidence.

HdN is not as well respected outside of this state as you seem to think.
