Auburn is considering Houston Nutt, but not Leach

Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt met with his athletics director and the university chancellor Friday morning. That meeting occurred with the backdrop of Auburn taking a look at Nutt to replace Tommy Tuberville.
The News reported Friday morning Auburn was interested in Nutt and Florida State offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher, and possibly a few others. Nutt met with Athletics Director Pete Boone and university chancellor Robert Khayat.
Two names that have been talked about, especially nationally, can be stricken from the list. Texas Tech coach Mike Leach, who insiders say expressed an interest in Auburn, is not being considered. Texas defensive coordinator and former Auburn assistant Will Muschamp is content in Austin.

Between him and Leach...this board may stay Gators X just so everyone knows.
-
I would flip the fuck out if it's Nutt. Seriously.
Wouldn't be able to handle it.

Me too. I don't know what I would do. TO love Auburn football so much, and get completely slapped in the face back by it. I am just not sure I could handle it...I would go through the whole off season saying what the fuck...and then we would win 8 games a year till we got rid of him...this sucks...I am already getting depressed...

Nutt is good for at least 4 losses a year :puke:
-
All these Hog fans on our board are bringing us some bad juju
-
Now it just got reported on Jox that Nutt has said "No thanks" to Auburn.
What a fucking joke. Turned down by Houston Fucking Nutt.
I still think this is a smokescreen while they are dealing with the real prizes, Muschamp, or Patterson. I'm hearing a growing story that Leach might actually go to MSU. Now THAT would be a BIG upgrade for that program.

So was Tuberville. Just saying...
-
That makes me want to throw up.
On the other hand, the irony of ANOTHER Ole Piss coach jumping ship to Auburn is pretty cool... :rofl:
-
He's already refused it publicly. Already been reported and verified by Mark Murphy of ITAT. AD has shot it down already also.

Sorry guys. Auburn is my second favorite school and I'd hate to see Houston get another undeserved raise. Having said that, it would be funny as hell for Houston to slap Ole Miss in the face and turn tail towards Auburn. I'd love to hear the national media guys spin it.

They could be talking with Coaches also to pressure other real targets to step up and talk. Sexton isn't the only one probably playing the game here.
All this information and misinformation tells me the cogs are definately turning at a good pace right at the moment.

Hiring Houston Nutt would make us the laughing stock of college football. :cage:

It's embarrassing is what it is.
Bama courted Rich Rodriguez (who turned out to be a monumentally bad hire), Steve Spurrier and Saban.
We've got the same basic list UT Martin and Syracuse would have: Leach, Nutt and Johnson.
I hate to compare to those guys, because we're better than them in every possible way but Jacobs is making Mal Moore look like a genius. And Mal's a fool.
-
All over the news now that Nutt is working with OM on his contract. All indications are official that Sexton did his job and that he's getting more cheese and is now staying.

You wouldn't know that listening to Slimebomb and his guests.
They are acting as if it's a done deal. :taunt:

They're playing in the biggest game since 92 tomorrow, and all F'bomb and people are trying to do is make Auburn fans feel uncomfortable about the coaching search.
It's ridiculous.
-
If we hire Leach or Nutt, I will seriously consider getting my LLM at Florida. Un-fucking-believable. What in the flying fuck is wrong with our athletic department. Sad Days...
-
It's so fucking funny to hear all the quotes from Jacobs about how they are just now forming a committee, will hire a search firm, no one has been contacted etc....
But we now hear that Houston Nutt turned us down. Turned who down? The search committee hasn't even been formed...right?
Look, anyone recall last year when CTT was not just rumored to be taking the Arky job, it was reported as fact on TV stations around the State of Arkansas and in Alabama. I saw one of the reporters from Arky come on WSFA out of Montgomery and say it will be announced within the hour. I don't know what really went on behind the scenes but I think it was actually more Sexton throwing false shit their way to get a bigger deal. I can virtually guarantee it's happening now and OM is being played like a cheap fiddle. And no one ever bothers to truly check the story out because they want to the first to break it. Isn't it always, "A source close to the situation said..."?
Do you REALLY think we went after Houston Nutt? Why? If Bobby Lowder and other BOT members are pulling the strings, what in the hell would make them say, "Hey, let's go get that Nutt fella'. He's one hell of a coach."

Sorry. It's nothing personal.

Is it pronounced, jee-zus or is it Hay-sues? I just gotta' know because you just never can tell who you're talking to and I don't want to say the wrong thing and go to hell.

BTW, Coach Nutt was never offered by Auburn or the Unofficial people that contacted him, I'm not sure he was even contacted....NO MORE COACH'S OF JIMMY SEXTON!!!! From what I've heard, Nutt was supposedly contacted to gauge his interest in the AU job....that was it. Now I'm hearing that OM is hammering out a contract extension or some kind raise, again....NO MORE COACH'S OF JIMMY SEXTON!!!!
Also, Mike Leach is no were close to being the leading candidate.

Where have I heard this before? Oh, yeah, from Steve Pederson.
Coach Nutt was never offered by Nebraska or the Unofficial people that contacted him, I'm not sure he was even contacted....From what I've heard, Nutt was supposedly contacted to gauge his interest in the NU job....that was it. Now I'm hearing that the GTMF that leads TGOB's at Arkansas is hammering out a contract extension or some kind raise, again....and the GTMF and JFB are going to make sure he gets it.
I'm sorry AU got used by Hooot to get a raise and contract extension from OM. On the other hand, I'm not sorry that Hooot used AU to sucker OM into giving him a raise and a contract extension. I'd be willing to bet Hooot used AU to get his bwain bweeding bwother a raise, too.
OM, being the gullible fucks they are, let a used car salesman, that averages loosing 4 games a year and a history of using non-existent offers from other schools to get a raise, leverage a four-loss season - one of which was a loss at home to Vanderbilt - and a non-existent offer from AU into more than a $1M a year raise.
We all should rejoice that OM has gone "All In" with a Division III coach that has already posted his best record he'll evar have at OM. In two years, with his lazy-ass recruiting, Hooot's OM Rebels, when at home, will be playing in a half-empty stadium. Instead of scheduling three SWAC teams at home for his non-conference games, Hooot, in order for OM to earn enough money to pay his salary, will have to start pimping out his OM team to a couple of CUSA teams for their Home Coming games and agree to play ULM home and home.
AU passed on Hooot and the MSM, so things can go no where but up from here for y'all.
