Who will be the coach?

With Nutt, it's not about wins and losses. It's whether you want your coach to have a shred of integrity. Whether or not you want a coach that declares the team motto for the final three weeks "bring the wood" and hands out baseball bats to the team....the week after a story breaks that his wife expressed a desire to have participated in a brutal attack where Mitch Mustain's mother was hospitalized after being beaten with a 2 x 4.

 

Could be as we speak.  Word is that Arkansas is going to "nutt" up and whack Houston at the presser in a few hours.  

Damn, Doba is out the door reportedly?  Looks like that win over U-Dub wasn't going to save him this time.  

 

Nothing would give my smile muscles a better workout than watching Arkansas football settle in for a nice, long run down the 'ol poop chute.

My impression of Razorback fans is of a group that would rather see flash than substance and would rather see blood on the floor (i.e. Nutt's firing) than see a competitive football program.

It takes a lot of work to rub yourself into a disillusional lather like Arkansas fans have. So many of them - or at least the loud minority - seem to think 8-4 seasons and the occasional run at the SEC title game is beneath them. Never mind the fact that Arkansas lags behind the SEC's giants in location and exposure. Yes, I have been to Fayetteville, Arkansas. Nice place. Would I choose it over Gainsville or Knoxville or Athens were I a 17-year old defensive back? No.

Keep in mind, this is a fan base that pretty much broke out the Lubriderm when a high school football coach was named offensive coordinator in 2006. Then, the selfsame fan base moaned like babies with diaper rash when this high school football coach wasn't given offensive playcalling autonomy.

On the jobs board of collegefootballcoaches.com, I would be the guy writing "Run far away" from the Arkansas job posting right now.

 

Great sense of humor here. But I still don't see why people do that.

I'd never get on an NBA thread and post "Haven't read any of this thread. I mean, who gives a fuck about the Celtics, et al?" And I'd hope soccer haters would not do that to our thread about that sport.

 

That same high school football coach is the offensive coordinator for the #1 ranked offense in YPG in NCAA football this year.

 

Nutt does not seem to be a good fit at Georgia Tech.

Anybody else think Steve Spurrier is about to get some phone calls?

 

Is this the return of Uncle Mikey? Do we get to see another round of "The Price is Right" hedlines?

 

Noted.

He's actually the CO-offensive coordinator, or that's what his title is according to the team roster. And being a co-offensive coordinator at a C-USA school is a tad different than going from supervising study hall to being an offensive coordinator in the SEC.

In 2006, the Razorbacks made it to the SEC title game and fielded a Heisman Trophy candidate. Yet from what I picked up from the fanbase, you'd have thought the season ended in tragedy because a prep football coach didn't get to leave his imprint on the offense.

I know that SEC fandom brings with it a touch of insanity every now and then, but Arkansas fans strike me as an especially ungrateful and nasty vintage.

 

Man, I didn't think Washington State University, located in the Palouse Region of the southeast corner of the state of Washington, could afford to fire football coach Bill Doba, whose nose looked as if he'd been hitting the sause for a month at The Coug, a popular Pullman bar, after defeating Washington in Saturday's Apple Cup game. 8)

Especially since Tony Bennett is now gettig big money.

But maybe Wazzu couldn't afford to keep him, seeing as how attendance has dropped and interest in the program has fallen. Price would be an easy, popular hire and he could even keep Doba as his DC, a position in which he excelled.

 

would wsu take price back? it would make sense for both sides if they would

 

Roollll, Tide!

It's rollin' honey ...

 

I'm not sure anyone thinks it hasn't happened yet.
