Back to the OP: Sports Illustrated calls Ole Miss the worst coaching job in college football.

Stewart Mandel at Sports Illustrated:


In terms of available resources vs. job expectations, what is the worst coaching job in college football?
-- Ron, Indianapolis

Two words: Ole Miss. I feel bad saying that because I've made cracks about that fan base's deluded expectations before, but in all seriousness, it's a graveyard job. Despite residing in a small state, despite constant struggles to recruit elite athletes who qualify academically, despite one of the smallest football budgets in the conference (slightly more than Kentucky, Vanderbilt and Mississippi State and about half of Alabama's) and despite playing in a division with three of the past five national champions, two of the Rebels' past three coaches (David Cutcliffe and Houston Nutt) have been fired within two years of Cotton Bowl appearances.

Nutt's program was obviously trending downward, but even in a solid state, the Rebels were never going to keep winning nine games every year. And a couple of 7-6 seasons probably would have scored Nutt maybe one extra year. The next coach will be given a year or two to rebuild, then expected to contend for a New Year's bowl, all while the SEC adds two more schools to recruit against and implements stricter rules about oversigning (which Ole Miss leans on as heavily as anyone) and the NCAA stiffens academic entrance requirements (which means even fewer kids will qualify). Personally, I'd ask for a contract that at least allows me to partake in the Grove before games to help ease the misery.


>>>>>> So that settles that.

I hope that's a bad pic of her face, the way y'all have been talking about her.

IWHI without question though.

Jesus man you're getting ridiculous again. Mandel never has anything positive to say about Ole Miss, the whole Masoli ordeal, oversigning, Nutt's shitty coaching, etc. and as for you Meddawg one fricking opinion doesn't settle shite.

Did anyone ever write anything positive about these things?

getting Masoli was one of the good things that Nutt did while at Ole Miss. They won four games but what would they have done without him?

It's obvious looking back at 2010 that he should have won the Heisman(hyperbole) with how good he made our line look. We probably would've been 2-10 without him.
