Auburn is considering Houston Nutt, but not Leach
Posted by Charles Goldberg, Birmingham News December 05, 2008 12:25 PM
Categories: Football
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.

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...

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.

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.

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.

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.

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."
