couple questions about Houston Nutt

I'm not THAT familiar with Nutt but I know he was a pretty good coach at Ark & had a few SEC West Championships. I know Ark fans didn't like him towards the end & wanted him fired (not for sure why cause he was pretty good).. I know that first year he was at Ole Miss he had an awesome year, beat Florida, Texas Tech, LSU, etc. & had a good 2nd year (not as good as was expected though) & then he had 2 terrible years. My question, what happened with Nutt? How did he go from being real good for 2 years to completely sucking for 2 consecutive years? And.. Is all the Ole Miss hate for Nutt just because he had those 2 bad years or is there some other reason? And also, why do Arkansas fans hate him? I guess I'm basically wondering what's up with all the hate for Nutt. I'm kind of surprised nobody has hired him although I heard Memphis offered him a couple years ago.

Troll. He sucked here most of the time, and lucked into some shite.
He is PART of the reason Gus left. I'm no Gus disciple by any means but I don't think his time here was fair for him either.

Nutt came in, had junior and senior classes stocked with NFL talent in 08/09, and won 18 games in those 2 yrs. But honestly, he lost several he shouldn't have like Vandy, wake, and USCe in 08, as well as USCe, Auburn, and State in 09.
After that, his laziness on the recruiting trail and in team discipline began to show, his shitty fricking strength coach did not develop the players physically in any way, and our OL play just tanked under his buddeh Mikey Markuson.
Yes, he brought in some MS kids that are serious players for us now like Golson, Prewitt, CJ, Bennett, and DT- BUT go look at his classes as a whole. They are chock full of guys who were complete busts. I could reel off 15-20 names off the top of my head who were complete duds. As in, never made any sort of impact.
The team fell even further behind in 2011 and just quit giving a frick - just like Hootie. He and his staff quit recruiting after the week 2 loss at Vandy. They knew they were gone and they just checked the frick out the rest of the year.
So once again, the fact that Freeze has us anywhere near where we are is nothing short of amazing.

You should have contacted me first. I would have warned you that Arkansas fans are utterly incapable of hearing Hootie's name without going into a frothing, incoherent rage at the very suggestion that Nutt didn't lose every single game while at Arkansas. They just can't help themselves.

If you have to ask, you're too stupid to be given a serious answer

Stopped reading after this. Matt Jones and DMac saved him from being fired after 5 seasons.

lol no
With the talent he got us in the back field we didn't do much with it. Never had a good qb under him. Matt Jones was a runner and he ran off Gus and his guys. Him and Broyles just meh after a few years together.
Ole Miss learned

Nutt thread with no mention of him being the next UF coach. This place has turned to poop.

Houston Nutt won more SEC games at Arkansas than the other 7 Razorback head coaches have won combined.

So whose alter are you?
Posted on 10/22/14 at 1:02 pm to DakForHe15man
His SEC winning % at arkansas was 51 points higher than Bert's

He was using Freeze's talent those first two years and his own talent his last two years.

I think that he was a good coach for a good 10 or so years, but as is often the case, the game eventually passed him by.

He was gifted 2 of the greatest players in Arkansas history (Matt Jones and Mcfadden) and couldn't do shite with either of them despite the SEC overall being pretty bad.
