understand he made his name at the highschool level by putting the QB exclusively in the shotgun. It's pretty well known by now that in order to compete at the highest level, albeit an NFL level, a divisional title level, a conference title level, an SEC level week after week, your QB must be able to operate under center. The auburn people forced the hire on Chizic b/c of his numbers at lower conference and highschool levels and it sounds like there is already a big difference in philosphy there. This was a big failure by Auburn b/c the guy specializes in a gimmick, finnesse approach to moving the ball. The best example I can give you of a great spread vs an average SEC defense was the cotton bowl. TT had no chance against what was billed as a below average SEC secondary. They couldn't tackle, couldn't stop the run, couldn't avoid interceptions, couldn't avoid pressure, couldn't get many guys open, didn't even try to make yards after catch. Another example was the title game. both offenses sloppy, confused, pressured.
When Malzhan starting installing his spread at Arkansas, Herring was calling different blitz packages in 1 vs 1's from all different parts of the field. Malzhan and Mitch was totally and completely lost.

Dear Houston Nutt
Please stop using the screen name wildrebeltime on tigerdroppings.com. While your rants and dribble make for entertaining fun, I am sure your talents and wildcat, rebel, hog formations are needed at Ole Miss. Please stop harassing all hog fans as they are eager to see what a BCS championship coach can accomplish after 10 years of preschool. In closing, thank you for the memories and time but you now coach Ole Miss and this is your team. The Razorbacks have moved on and so should you.
Thank you

Still waiting for Tebow to do a drop back pass. I think UF is adding that wrinkle this year.

Dribble is a basketball term. Drivel, I think is what you are going for here.

Hey...

Petrino is an example of a pro-style offense. However, I think his biggest problem is he doesn't put a premium on stopping the run, or the pass for that matter, which is why our defense this year was last for the first time in 10 years and statistically the worst it's ever been and that was by a large margin in a year SEC offenses weren't really that good.
Petrino's game and personality will work in the big east but he has no chance to win at a place like Arkansas.

you need to pick a team. Petrino + SEC = SUCCESS
I think Nutts play calling and game is more suited to the Big 12 than the SEC anyway.

I don't think Petrino can win in the SEC. I think he's in over his head. I have numerous examples of things I've seen from him so far but I want to evaluate one more season first.

You are so full of shite it's not even funny. You seriously think you can safely evaluate a proven succesful head coach as a failure after his first season at a new program which was in an obvious rebuilding season? If anything, Arkansas steadily improved during last year; their one main consistent problem being their defense. That entire defense was insanely young and will be much better this year.

Frankly Chizik is a career loser at the D-1 level. Nothing else needs to be said. Why would you choose a LOSER as your head coach???

Yeah, that national championship at Texas was a fluke and he had nothing to do with it

He was the DC at Texas and they won soley because of their offense and Vince Young. I don't recall their defense putting up outstanding numbers while Chizik was their. He is a career loser as a HC and we'll just have to give him 2 years to see what he can build at AU.

Do you get credit for wins and losses as a coordinator???? Chizik=loser. You guys deserve better.

At Iowa State? Absolutely. Have to give him the benefit of the doubt right now, and see how he does at AU.

Iowa State is a consistent loser and was 4-8 the year before he arrived, had been in a decline during the previous years, was considered one of the youngest teams in the country both years he coached, in which those years he coached that young talent was very poor, and lastly, Iowa State had absolutely horrid recruiting classes the previous five years before Chizik was hired. He only had two years to turn that mess around. Hell, even Turner Gill had a 7-17 record in his first two years at Buffalo.

I agree that he was basically in a no win situation with ISU but that's all there is to judge him on right now. If he rights the ship at AU in a few years, then my opinion of him will change.
Being a HC in the SEC is ALOT more difficult than being a co-DC in the Big 12.
