Nutt's response:



I would have previously said that I didn't know how Ole Miss could have made this worse.

Too bad Alice couldn't get Bjork and Freeze under control. Does this mean she buys all the burner phones for the AD?

Hmmmm, one wonders: Nutt may not know where all the bodies are buried, but I'll bet he knows where the graveyard is . . .

Nutt should insist on receiving his settlement check face to face instead of through the attys. Imagine the smile on his face when one of the Black Bears' hands him the check.

As I recall, OM fans made fun of Arkansas fans hating on Nutt. Those fans sure look silly now.

People are forgetting most of the major violations in the first NOA were under Nuttbag. That is whne he was saying they were bashing him. The 2nd NOA which came a year later was all Freeze




You just proved that Nutt was slandered. Because this is not true. 2 level ones happened while Nutt was head coach. 5 happened under Freeze. Nutt is not named but Freeze is named in violation 8.

It is important to understand that the issue is not whether statements by Ole Miss "sources" were truthful, but whether they negatively affected his coaching opportunities. Ole Miss agreed not to make statements that would negatively impact him in seeking coaching positions. Truth or falsity is simply not at issue. (Except to extent punitive damages are at issue)

What is amazing is that no one at Ole Miss apparently was aware of the contract terms or was paying attention to the information being released by Ole Miss sources that could be construed as a violation of the contract, and exposing the university to a lawsuit, which is certainly not on its face frivolous.

Of course by this point, Ole Miss can't apologize without essentially conceding they violated the contract. So they are now pretty much committed to seeing it through to the end.

Ironically, if the federal case is dismissed, in whole or in part, for lack of federal jurisdiction, the case will likely end up in Hinds. That means it will be in a jurisdiction where Ole Miss may not have the most sympathetic jury pool.

I'm not sure Nutt will have an easy time if he gets to trial proving damages, but one never knows with a jury, and I'm not sure Hinds is the venue I would want if I'm Ole Miss. But no matter what the outcome, Ole Miss will come out tarnished. And for simply not being aware of the situation. And it will cost the university, if nothing else, a bucket load of attorney fees.

A simple civil apology and all is well


Most would just apologize to be the bigger person and move on.

Not at Ole Miss. They go big

Nutt isn't qualified to coach a pee-wee football team much less a university and every school knows it. Ole Miss's statements had no effect on his employment so he can kick rocks.

I will however accept an apology from him for the 2012 season

Exhibit A in the trial should be the mercy knee with 5 minutes left

Further, it is clear Mr. Nutt’s suit seeks far more than an apology.


Nope. An apology was all he wanted initially and Freeze would still be coach
