Houston Nutt's buy out money from his last 2 jobs totals $9.5 Million in 4 years

Houston Nutt. Is this a great country or what? Four years ago Houston Nutt and his agent, Jimmy Sexton, pulled off one of the greatest coups ever. Nutt was in the process of being forced out at Arkansas and got a buyout of over $3.5 million to walk away. Just hours after his dismissal at Arkansas was announced Nutt was hired by Mississippi at a salary of about $2.5 million. This Saturday, after back to back losing seasons, Nutt will coach his last home game for Ole Miss against No. 1 LSU. The price tag for his departure this time will be another $6 million. Nutt, who just turned 54, could retire in style but says he wants to coach again: "I still think I've got one more good run left in me," he said
I posted this on the SEC Rant. But wanted to post it here for the few that don't venture over there. It kinda has something to do with the Tigers, since we're playing Nutt this week.
Want to become a millionaire? Make one team medicore, get fired, con another team into giving you a huge contract, then run that team in the ground, get fired again.

Now that is some sweet work if you can get it.
He needs to con his way into another major conference job.

May not be worth a shite as a coach, but as a business man, he is racking it up. I guess he is lucky that Sexton is his agent.

Did he actually collect on the Arkansas buyout? I was under the impression that a buyout was not payable if the person takes another job during the period covered by the previous contract.
If he was actually able to cash the Arky check, he did get a sweet deal!

Nutt and JaMarcus need to do a remake duet of "Take the Money and Run"

Actually what he said was, "I still think I've got one more good buy-out left in me"

If anyone ever doubted Jimmy Sexton's genius.
