Title: Reports: Houston Nutt Fired Post by: Coach Hank Crisp on November 06, 2011, 10:14:30 AM http://www.redcuprebellion.com/2011/11/6/2541594/reports-Ole-Miss-Head-Football-Coach-houston-nutt-fired
Quote Yes, I know, we've see the same "rumors" and "reports" week after week and loss after loss circulated on blogs, forums, and Twitter, but it seems to be legitimate this time. After yesterday's loss to Kentucky, the 12th consecutive SEC loss Ole Miss has endured under Houston Nutt's coaching tenure, the Rebel head coach was informed that he would not be retained beyond the Egg Bowl and will, perhaps, be dismissed as early as Monday. Again, I know we've heard all of this before, but sources close to the Cup have confirmed this and, come on, at this point it's not like it's something that's all that hard to believe.

We could be much worse off. Just imagine if Rodriguez agreed to come here. I am proud to have Coach Saban at Bama. No ones perfect, even our coach. But he is perfect enough for me. (song?) Title: Re: Reports: Houston Nutt Fired Post by: pmull on November 06, 2011, 10:37:39 AM I can't say this surprises me. Who with they go after. I don't think a big name is a possibility. They could go after a successful small school head coach or a coordinator. My guess is they go after Gus Malzahn.
Title: Re: Reports: Houston Nutt Fired Post by: crimsonmom on November 06, 2011, 10:54:53 AM Right now I wish they would go after Jim McElwain!
Title: Re: Reports: Houston Nutt Fired Post by: McBaman on November 06, 2011, 12:53:52 PM Thought I read or heard that it would cost something like $8MM to get rid of Nutt. Anybody got any intel on that??
Title: Re: Reports: Houston Nutt Fired Post by: KoKoPuf on November 06, 2011, 01:15:34 PM Now that Missouri is joining the SEC and Ole Miss may not have a coach, can we just kick the Rebel Black Bears out of the SEC?
Title: Re: Reports: Houston Nutt Fired Post by: Catch Prothro on November 07, 2011, 01:58:46 PM Reports are that both Nutt and AD Pete Boone are gone.

Anybody got any intel on that?? Buyout is $6 mil.Title: Re: Reports: Houston Nutt Fired Post by: Chechem on November 07, 2011, 03:29:32 PM As posted in the Daily Thread:
1. Houston Nutt will step down at the end of this season; 2. Pete Boone (AD) will retire next year (2012) after his replacement is chosen; 3. Archie Manning will serve on the committee of 5 to choose the next coach. Title: Re: Reports: Houston Nutt Fired Post by: Jamos on November 07, 2011, 04:16:06 PM I'm betting Nutt is tickled pink that they finally decided to get rid of him, wish I could get run off from a job for 6 million. ;)
