Hey guys, I remember the Springdale drama, but I haven't heard anything about these phone records. Can yall briefly sum up what these phone records told us about Nutt?

---

The entire FOI thing was because there were some strong suspicions that the Nutts were complicit in the Mitch Mustain e-mails because some of the information contained in them would only be known by someone on the coaching staff.

A Razorback Fan trying to get to the bottom of the debacle FOI Nutt’s phone records and he had every right to do so because it was paid for by the U of A. What the FOI showed was that indeed there was some communications between the Nuttts and Teresa Pruitt, a personal friend of the Nutts, several times before the e-mail was sent including just seconds before and after. Draw your own conclusion but I believe Nutt wanted to run Mitch off so he could “justify” taking back control of the offense because Gus M. was getting the credit, and rightfully so, even thought he was severely “golden handcuffed” by Nutt. Nutt knew that w/o Mitch Gus couldn’t run what he wanted to and the Hogs would have to revert back to Nutt’s cliff notes playbook.

Also revealed when the FOI records came in was the Miami calls, the thousand plus text messages and calls to a certain news anchor including one just minutes before the debacle against Wisconsin, and other things. According to Nutt this was for charity work but the charity was never reveled. I wonder why? Many of the calls were very late at night or early in the AM like 1 and 2 o’clock including some on Christmas Eve. The reason this was a big deal, according to some, was because the Nutt Huggers always defended Nutt as being a "good Christian man" who was above reproach. This makes you wonder if Nutt's facade was just for show. Many, including me, belive it is.


These actions infuriated many Hog fans including me knowing that we played like shite in the Cap. 1 Bowl while Nutt’s mind and other parts of his body were elsewhere. Also among the FOI information was that there were no text messages or calls to some of the best HS players in Arkansas including Lee Ziemba and Cody Burns. I suppose Nutt was more interested in charity work than recruiting players.

The Miami calls were a big deal not because Nutt had contacted them but because he, his posse, and some of the willing accomplices in the media tried to destroy the credibility of anybody who claimed this was true. That was until the evidence came out. I liken it to the Clinton denial regarding Monica L. until the stain dress surfaced. There was so much shite that Nutt and his arse Clown Posse were trying to pull including the spin on the “Springdale” meeting with Broyles that one couldn’t even make up that shite because it was so unbelievable. And contrary to public belief as to what transpired in the “Springdale” meeting, a lie that was perpetuated by Nutt, the meeting was not about playing time. It was about what the parents were told during the recruiting process including certain academic issues that were not as they were promised. This was the main contention with the parents of Damian Williams who transferred to USC and did not play in the Cap. 1 Bowl.
