Question for Ole Miss fans...and others, too

Why in the world do you like Houston Nutt? Would you honestly not drop him like a prude prom date if you thought you could get Malzahn?
I don't get why Ole Miss fans ball wash that goofy bastard. I remember Arkansas fans couldn't stand him for about 3 years before he was let go...I mean "resigned".

I'd take Malahn right now in a heart beat. I don't dislike Houston, but he is the worst coach in the west and until that changes we won't be constistatly good.

Well I don't really care for Malzahn. But I'm not going to give up on a coach after one season or just flat out hate him after one season.
Just like Ed Orgeron...I was all against hiring him. But I supported him...especially the first 2 years at Ole Miss. Then after it showed he couldn't win by the 3rd game of the 3rd season...I was ready to move on.
I'm not going to give up on a coach after one season...plain and simple. Never have.

They should give him next year at the least. The last time Ole Miss fired a coach for one bad season they got stuck with option z of available candidates. If Nutt can't get to 7 wins or so next year they should can him.

So you weren't one of the fire Cutcliffe guys?

LoL at the Bammers coming up with a new thread about Malzahn and becoming a head coach somewhere else every five minutes.

I understand where you are coming from. Also, Malzahn was more an example of a better option than a specific candidate. I should have positioned it as such.
As for Nutt having one bad year, I agree that's all that has happened so far, but as a Bama fan who can speak from experience, I'd rather read the writing on the wall and pull the trigger if the trending is negative.
My issues with Nutt are:
1) every year you are going to hear his name connected with other jobs. 99% of those are manufactured connections. He isn't really a candidate for those jobs, but he will use this as a chance to get a raise & an extension...most often one that wasn't deserved.
2) he lost to Jax State and Vandy this year. One of those would be bad enough, but both? he should be ashamed for not having Ole Miss better prepared. Should have won both of those games.
3) I can't stand the way he stands on the sidelines with his arms constantly crossed, staring at the field with this unbelieving look on his face. The way he crosses those arms bugs me for some reason.
That's all I got. Carry on.

I felt firing Cutcliffe was a huge mistake. But from my understanding...I don't Cutcliffe would have come back for the 2005 season if he wasn't fired. There was a lot of stuff floating around inside the university at that time that he was wanting to step down due to some kind of health reason. I remember sitting in the PR office hearing that. But yeah....I wasn't for firing him. I wasn't too crazy about Cutcliffe...but he was winning at Ole Miss minus the 2004 season.

I couldn't care less if Malzahn ever gets a head coaching job. Hell, I hope you make him OC for life at AU. In his two years on the plains his O has scored an average of 24.5 pts per game against Bama - this is more than 2 touchdowns per game below the average PPG for his O while in AU.
His O isn't "lighting" Bama up. I am of the opinion that Gus is a really good OC, but I am not overly concerned about him. I used him more as an example of someone else that would be better than Nutt, whom I believe to be an over-rated coach.
Besides...anyone not named Stevie Wonder or Ray Charles can see that Cam Newton is the difference in your offense this year - not that the team is better b/c of yr 2. (remember, LSU held you guys to basically 3 points last year and KENTUCKY held you to 14...Cam is the difference, not Gus)

I felt like firing David Cutcliffe was one of the bigger mistakes Ole Miss has made. He kind of reminds me as the college version of Tom Coughlin. He isn't the "sexiest" or "flashiest" of coaches, but his team was usually solid year in and year out. And that says a lot at Ole Miss. I guess Ole Miss got bored with him and his style of play. I'm sure they wanted someone young and energetic who could bring some new life and spark back into the program, which is understandable. However, I still think it was a huge mistake for them.

Back off, bitches... when Saban leaves 'Bama for Troy State's basketball coaching vacancy, we're getting Malzahn.

Nutt's a great coach and a wonderful human being.

I heard the same about Cut's health and you could tell something wasn't right with him physically by just looking at him on the sidelines. That and he lost a lot of good assistants(Bassica, Middleton, Mike Mcintyre, and Jim Knowles) and replaced them with a bunch of idiots. I think this is part of nutt's problem as well.
As for my feelings on Nutt, it is hard to hate a guy for 1 frick up season after taking us to back to back Cotton Bowls, especially after enduring the O years. I will tell you this though, if next year is like this past season his arse will be gone. By that I don't just mean wins&losses, but all this off the field shite needs to be straightened out. If he is going to be the 12th highest paid coach in the country, he needs to start winning like it or we will find someone else that will.

I'm all for giving the entire staff another chance. They've all produced so they've earned it. If the same thing happens next year, we'll every reason to fire them, and I won't feel bad about it at all.

Because 'Houston Nutt' is a really cool name. Coolness goes a long way at Ole Miss.
Posted on 12/1/10 at 5:33 am to bamasgot13
I like him because he isn't at arkansas.
I like him because he has hot daughters and wives.
I like houston because his last name is nutt,
I also like him because Houston Danny and Casey make up to nutts and a dick.
