I dont know if he is that bad, but he does seem like a real redneck.

I just think he is given too much credit for his moderate success at Arky. Petrino will do just as well, probaby better.

He did relatively okay, but it's hard to judge because they have only had three coaches (that's including Petrino) since they joined the SEC. His SEC record at Arkansas was abysmal, and his overall record was really fluffed up by rent-a-wins. They really have historically underachieved based on the money and facilities at their disposal.

Petrino is a huge improvement over Nutt for them.

I would hate to see what he could do with the talent at a place like LSU.

As an LSU fan, I would hate to see him waste it as well.

that's the most idiotic statement I've seen in a while

11-2, 11-2, 10-2, 9-4/10-3 =/= 9-5, 9-4, 5-6, 4-7, 10-4, 8-5

1-1 in SEC championship appearances >>> 0-2

3-0 in bowl games >>> 0-4

1-0 in national championship games >>>>>>> 0-0

how much stupider can you get?

Pardon me madame for not being clear as to what I was attempting to say.
Nutt at Arkansas was similar to Miles in OSU. Both had it tough trying recruit players to their school. Most seasons, you could count on them losing 4-5 games & occasionally pulling an upset of of a powerhouse.
Ole Miss hired Nutt after he lost four games his final year at Arkansas & LSU hired Miles after dropped 5 at OSU.

I can't control who is our coach, all I care about is that he is a better coach than we had..
