I don't think I've ever seen a coach strive to be JUST average like Nutt did. Every coach wants to be the best and talks about wanting to be the best. I don't recall Nutt ever saying that.

Believe it or not, when he was first hired at Arkansas he had cameras come into the meeting room when he first met with the team. The opening was him not saying anything walking over to the chalk board (this was 1998, Whiteboards were not popular yet, don't judge us) and wrote "National Championship". He then stood there in silence for a moment and told the team that is what Arkansas has competed for in the past, should be competing for in the present, and should be competing for in the future".

Now this wasn't our worse team of the 90s he was talking too, but it wasn't the best either, this was the first time I said the man was a "fricking retard".

When he got to Ole Miss all he said was about making bowl games...

Nutt:"We are going to more of a passing offense now that David Lee is gone, he was more of a running coach"

Four years later... Nutt hires Lee back to improve our passing game.

We all need to compare notes and do a book.
