I’ve always wondered if the Houston Nutt thing was Nick laying the groundwork for his return to LSU in case he didn’t like the NFL.

Kind of tin foil hat, but if you buy the prevailing wisdom of Nutt being someone who could win with other people’s players and then run out of steam when he had to recruit his own...

Mix that with a person so torn and prone to second thoughts about staying/going not only at Miami, but LSU and even Michigan State and it kind of adds up.

LSU wouldn’t have fired Nutt after two seasons so Bama still would have hired him in that scenario but I get what you are saying. It was his fall back. I don’t think it’s outside the possibility that Nutt wins a National Championship with the ‘06 and ‘07 teams. The talent in those teams were ridiculous.

I think it had more to do with Saban and Nutt both having Jimmy Sexton as an agent.
