What a gag piece. The same description of Nutt could be used for every used car salesman I’ve ever encountered. In fact, that’s exactly how his Boise State players described him when he left to go to Arkansas.

Also notice the article says he won at least 7 games every year at Arkansas. I think the “fact checker” needs to go back and look at the 2004 and 2005 seasons with win totals of 5 and 4, respectively. Also, Nutt is under .500 vs. BCS team in the last 10 years.

Nutt does serve good koolaid, though.

The Appomattox Courthouse scene following the “negative attitude in Oxford” quote made me laugh out loud.

Well done.

Btw, yoyofutbawl, the winningest coach in your program’s history finished with a .500 record (75-75-2). Just sayin’.

Oddly enough, I believe that’s fat-cat donor Dickie Scruggs’s private plane in the rear-view mirror…being permanently grounded by the local DA.

Coop-

Hard enough to keep up w/ MSU up here, much less the hated Rabblez. Not to say we were much better w/ Bellard & Rockey. At least we didn’t field a “swimming team”.

BTW, nice scenery at alive after 5 last Thursday night, as always.

#9 – I don’t blame you for forgetting the Steve Sloan era, but the Joe Lee Dunn era? I don’t recall how many games Dunn coached, but I am certain they were blitztastic.

Substitiute the following names for Houston Nutt:

Billy Kinard
Ken Cooper
Billy Brewer
David Cutcliffe
Ed Orgeron

and 1 (2?) more I can’t remember from the 80s. Same story, first printed back in the 70s, keeps on getting recycled.

Once Cut lost Eli, Ole Pi$$ reverted back to the same ol ‘ sack o’shit program. The only exception was God rest his soul, Johnny Vaught for 20 years back in the Bronze or Stone Age, take your pick.

“the biggest thing is to recruit players that are good students”
…good luck with that (from a fan of that school with the ‘high-character’ players).

So when did the Jews start cooking meth? Kosher Salt? Whats that about? We are done for….I bet their meth is pretty good, but way overpriced…..which should fit right in with the Ole Miss crowd anyway, especially on the Grove…Billy Mays would be a great recruiter, seeing that Oxi-ford is similar to Oxi-clean or any variation thereof…Oxi-Meth would be the next logical progression….”Hi I’m Billy Mays and with my well trimmed amazing beard, I am gonna show you why football in Oxi-Ford is so much cleaner than your typical SEC football program. Watch as I take these two teams into a car wash and (insert your own sales pitch here)…………………………

Again, hard not to laugh when I’m reading this. I gotta stop, especially when discussing Africa & colonialism and the really awful shit that happened. You get ugly looks from professors when you are biting your finger with a huge smile on your face.

The Eye of Sauron just killed me.
