Good read, but my fav part......

"This is a team that did not win an SEC game last year, but we've got the talent and coaches in place that we can get to Atlanta and win championships," Nutt said. "The only thing that is holding us back is that mental attitude............

and

"I want to play to the strengths of our best players," Nutt said. "We ran the ball a lot the last couple of years because that was our biggest strength.

"But a lot of people don't remember our first couple of seasons at Arkansas we had Clint Stoerner. We let him throw it a lot, and he ended up leading the conference in passing and even broke a couple of school records. If our strength is throwing, we'll throw it. If it's running, we'll run it. But I want us to get to the point that we are strong enough everywhere that we can run it if we want to and then pass it when we need to. That's hard to do in this league."

[extreme sarcasm]Ain't you been listening to the Hog fans? We'll be lucky to throw the ball 10 times a game. This is all just smoke and mirrors put on by the ol' liar himself. Why did we even hire this guy?[/extreme sarcasm] :P

Who cares what 'they' think? This Fall we'll see who got the better deal - Arky with their Coach-I'm-Not-Cheap-But-I-Can-Be-Had-Until-I-Get-A-Better-Offer, or OM.

Frankly, HN wasn't my first choice, but I'll take him over this quitter in a heartbeat. Nutt is a good coach and the Rebels will win more games this year, that is ALL I care about. Anyway hogs are good for 1 thing only - roasting.

Go Rebels!

Couldn't have said it any better myself!!!!!

Nutt will bring stability to this program. I think this coming year, we will see 8 regular season wins.

Now would that be lovely, Big! However, keeping it real - with a caveat of our starters staying healthy and JS being as good as we 'think' - 6 probable, maybe 7 if we can pull a big upset. At this point I'd take the 6 with a smile........never thought I'd say that. :evil: Sigh. But I hope you are right and I'm wrong.

Come on Rebs, prove me wrong, I'd love to eat some crow.

I agree, 6 or 7 wins is more realistic. Anything more is gravy.
