I do think he's a decent coach - DECENT - but not any better than that.

If I was an AD looking at him, and Sexton brought up "buyouts", etc, I'd laugh in Sexton's fat face.

Just tell him straight up HELL NO. Your guy wins, we'll bonus the crap out of him, but we are not guaranteeing him anything, because obviously, as soon as he gets the guarantee, he freakin quits working.

Remember watching Nutt's University of Arkansas team beat the eventual National Champion in overtime. He comes back next year - '08 - with a different team (Ole Miss) and beats LSU again!

Leaving those games I remember how many people were mad that Les Miles got "outcoached" by Nutt.

Also, saw Nutt beat Mike Leach in the last Cotton Bowl at the old stadium...and win the first Cotton Bowl in Cowboys Stadium against a very good Oklahomas St. Mike Gundy led Cowboy team.

I've seen enough - in person - to realize that Nutt is a good football coach. He will coach again or make a lot of money being a college football analyst.

As a coach you have good years and bad years. He has had enough bad years at Ole Miss to have to be shown the door.

College football coaching is more about recruiting than it is X's and O's. He has not been able to get the talent into Oxford. That is obvious to me when he gets handled by La. Tech.
