Why does everyone act like Ole Miss has no money?
I don't think anyone believes Ole Miss has no money, but there's a difference between spending $6 million just to fire a guy, versus investing that $6 million into facilities, recruiting budget, stadium upgrades, etc.

I doubt Nutt will be gone by December due to his buyout, but you can bet your arse he'll be gone come early January. Boone though needs to leave before Nutt does.

In just a couple of months the UMAA has raised $50M (their final goal is $150M) to build a new basketball arena. I think we can find $6M somewhere.
(Actually, the money has already been ponied up by the Vaught Society so it's just a matter of when they plan on using it. My guess is that they're waiting to know if Boone's fired and/or if Houston Nutt's replacement will be worth a damn.)
