If a coach had screwed my school over the way Nutt did to Arkansas (leaving the cupboard bare, all the drama with the Springdale group and their parents & the text-messaging scandal, etc.) and then left to coach not only another school in the same conference but in the same damn division the very next season, it would not be "just another game" for me.

That was kind of my thinking. Some, I repeat... some(not all)(just some)(to reiterate, a few), Lsu fans act as though that's what happened with Saban and us, but I would think this Arky/Ole Miss game would have the appropriate venom.

I would love to hear someone explain how it was Arkansas who did Nutt wrong.

Its a shame for Arkansas, Nutt really is a damn good coach IMO. Their was just too much water under the bridge for him to stay there. Petrino is a POS as far as I am concerned. He is a good coach but Arky better have a ready back up plan because this guy is likely to haul arse at anytime.

The only bad blood is from the Arkansas side. To Ole Miss its just another game. And I also think most of the Arkansas fans are over it except for a few, and most of those few tend to be on message boards, particularly on rivals.

My personal take is that it worked out best for both schools so it should just be left at that. Arkansas wanted him gone, Ole Miss needed a coach. Nutt knows how to coach talent, Ole Miss had talent. Petrino can recruit and will throw the ball even with a shite QB like C. Dick.

Again...Where will he go? Everybody says the same thing about this but I doubt anybody has really put any real perspective in answering...Are there better jobs than Arky...You betcha...Will Petrino get one of those jobs...doubtful

Here is the thing we do know about Nutt:

1) He can't recruit. He goes after on or two decent players per class; he doenst try to bring in a good overall class.

2) 10 seasons = 0 SEC Championships. THis is unacceptable at any SEC school (besides Vandy, bc the just have lower standards). If we dont fire the guy, we are basically approving of being mediocre, and the whole point of having a coach is to win...not be mediocre


The two above are facts based on performance measurables. He was barely .500 in SEC play over 10 years...once again, a school wanting to be great will not except this.

Now as for the game this week, it is kinda like the "calm before the storm". There are some articles, papers, etc, but we arent really gonna know how everyone is gonna react till Saturday gets here.

Actually I have found the most dedicated "nutt haters" to be on hogville. You can't post one "non-negative" thing about Nutt without being called a Nutt Hugger and being told to move to Mississippi. The whole banner flying was started and funded there. the people on that board were the main group of haters. Most Arkansas fans were kinda up in the air about it. Yeah, Nutt screwed up, but that "group" of fans was just plain stupid about it.

It's a big deal to the students. It's a big deal to many of our fans. It's a big deal to the Ole Miss idiots that are trying to fly a banner over our stadium Saturday afternoon.

I know that around here DC has earned the right to speak for us Hogs; however, she is wrong on this one.

BTW, Ole Miss should win the game this yr.
We'll get plenty of revenge in a yr or two
