    hogcalls,

    based on your post, if true, yes, Arky should fire CHN. I'm not very reactionary, I'm on record that I think Alabama should give CMS another year.

    I marvel at Nutt sticking with Dick who obviously was having such an awful day.

    I'm happy as a clam with our win, but I can understand your frustration.

    Come back and talk to us anytime.

    This was LSU's most difficult opponent without a doubt. You guys have a tremendous team. And I commend you for making such a classy post after what has to be the most difficult loss for Arkansas fans you've had in a very very long time.

    For you guys to pass 4 times on that last series was an absolute joke. You guys could have easily run the ball all they way down the field without a single pass play and scored. Luckily your coach is a total dumbass. The clock not a factor based on how the game went up to that point. First downs would have stopped the clock enough to allow for it.

    The story is that during the recruiting process of the players from Springdale High (the same school Gus Malzahn coached at), Mitch said some things about Nutt that got back to him.

    During our sorry season last year, we managed a win against Ole Miss. When asked about a play in the postgame, Nutt screamed at the reporter "I called that play, brotha!" (He had been under fire all year for poor playcalling). When Mustain heard that quote he said, in front of another reporter, "He should have been fired on the spot." This just came out a few weeks ago.

    It still sticks in Houston's craw that Malzahn is a better football mind than he is, and that Mustain is the better QB.

    Not his call. Malzahn was forced on him by the AD and Board of Trustees. It was either accept an O.C. or be sent packing. Nutt chose the former, but it has rankled him ever since. Look for lots of whispers about Nutt to Miami. He has a great agent in Jimmy Sexton, a man who could sell snow to an eskimo, and the U is looking for a guy to improve their image.

    I don't think Nutt has enough sparkle for the caines although he is willing to let the criminals under his watch run wild which should strongly appeal to Miami.

    If Arkansas had won, Hogcalls and his cronies would be carrying Nutt around on their shoulders.

    Been hearing this "Mustain and Malzahn" praise for over a year now. One guy that played for him in H.S. and the hoard of bandwagoners lately.

    Not trying to bash anyone, but what the heck is the glory about? Mustain did exactly what as starting QB? The couple of times I saw him play he looked, well, like a high school QB with a great surrounding cast. Not that he will not be a great QB, but my grandmother showed more arm strength. Maybe it was just the couple of times I saw him play, seriously, not trying to bash anyone.

    As far as firing Nutt. You're not serious are you? He, along with a high school offensive coordinator, antiquated offensive scheme, a season full of trick plays and couple of un-believable running backs (and, I'm sorry, not much else) are on their way to an SEC championship game that they have a great CHANCE to win, and the Arky faithful want his head? Wow.:eek:

    Arkansas has had an unbelievable season (that they started hoping to end bowl eligible) and are headed to a great bowl, one way or the other. Fire Nutt? Great idea!
