Nutt ranked #1

[bleuwolfe]

Ranking The 2008 Rookie Coaches
Quick, get this guy an extension

1. Houston Nutt, Ole Miss – An SEC retread? Uh, no. It’s taken Nutt less than a year to turn around a Rebel program that had completely lost its way under Ed Orgeron. In the four seasons prior to his arrival, Ole Miss had won just 14 games. In 2008, the Rebs went 9-4, including a win over national champion Florida and a 47-34 victory over then-No. 8 Texas Tech in the Cotton Bowl. Ole Miss closed the season on a six-game winning streak and an improbable No. 14 in the final AP poll, concrete evidence that Nutt was far from finished when he got the boot from Arkansas a year ago.

Best recruit we have had in many years!

[fis]

you know what is kind of interesting is that when he started out at Murray state (KY) he inherited a team that was way down in the 1-9 range or so. he was like 5-6 or so in his first 2 years then went undefeated in conference the next 2 years, his fourth year actually winning the first play off game for them in years if ever. According to just the records without diving into the opposing coaches he was easily better than Frank Beamer there. Then, He took over Arkansas where his predecessor was like .350 or so in 5 years, but had about .750 career percentage at Clemson in 15 years with a National Championship. Nutt was about 65% or so overall with a winning SEC record. So, if you just go to college football data warehouse there is overwhelming evidence that up to this point Nutt has actually been a great coach. I mean, if he has a few of losses to florida, georgia tennesse, lsu, look at what they did those years?

Thus far I agree.

I just hope to God you guys stay behind him the next few years. Arkansas is already turning on their 2nd year basketball coach after a blow out home loss again today.

Nutt is perhaps one of the best 10 coaches in college right now, and I don't think there is a better fit for the Ole Miss program, if nothing more than the fact that he wants to prove to Arkansas he's better than Petrino. And if he proves that he most likely has you in the running for the SEC West(s). You just have to understand he's not gonna have some of the glamorous recruiting classes by the star rankings and he's not gonna throw on 3rd and 7 and much as you football gurus*think* he should, at least I don't predict in the post-Snead era.

I think your wrong about the post-Snead era but only time will tell. And as far as recruiting, you might be surprised come signing day.

FIS, you don't have to worry, we don't eat our own. Pigs, (razorbacks), are one of the few that eat their own. At Ole Miss, there might be a small faction of discontents but the majority will toe the line. Nutt will have to do more than text a chick on the cell phone. still laugh at that one)
Let's enjoy what we have accomplished and see how next year plays out. It's called momentum and we have it going in the right direction.

We (myself included) did just that with Cutcliffe.

And he did absolutely nothing to bring about that situation. Nothing, At all.

Looking back, I don't think he did. I think I was to hard on him. All the man did was win.

He disobeyed his boss. OM got waxed in the media because it didn't get out in front if it.

Well didn't Nutt disobey his boss? I mean Malzahn and those parents were his bosses weren't they?

I apologize for giving your grief before. That is possibly the most rational, reasonable and researched post that I've EVER seen by an Arkansas fan. Ever.

Houston Nutt has done nothing but shown great success in his individual career. It takes someone like that to come into a place like Oxford and make us a real team again.

Fis, if we ever do a blanket ban of Arkansas, make sure you get a pardon. You have my vote to stay on rebelfaithful island.
