Ping: State of Nebraska
 

don't take my coach.

thank you

please take mine tho

I want Spurrier to coach Nebraska

Spurrier/Davis is a good trade for Nutt.

According to Nebraska boards...it's Nutt from Arkansas.

You can have Ron Zook and Cris Collingsworth...

:D

Just joking about Cris, of course.

Why would anyone ever want to coach at Nebraska... the only thing that you could possibly look forward to is being fired in 4 years.

I'm afraid that someone is going to take my basketball coach... :(

I am afraid a stripper is going to take your football coach :D

Punk... :D

I'm afraid my football coach may sign an extension, so someone please take him.

I'm an Arkansas fan and it's fine with me if you take my coach. Just don't give him back to us when you fire him in a few years.

Report: Nutt Says No To Huskers
Arkansas coach Houston Nutt is expected to turn down the Nebraska job, according to a Fayetteville TV station. The report also stated that Nutt will get a pay raise and an additional job title.

Yeah that's what we've been hearing for awhile here. Still waiting on the press conference confirming this.

The 2.5 million offer from Nebraska is making Nutt reconsider.

Dear Nebraska,

Please hire John Bunting.

He has "NFL" experience.

Signed,
UNC

LINCOLN - With a plane waiting to take him back to Nebraska, and a $2 million offer on the table, Arkansas Coach Houston Nutt was still mulling the Nebraska job Friday evening in Fayetteville.


Houston Nutt

"Nothing is settled," Arkansas Athletic Director Frank Broyles said when reached at home Friday night.

When asked what was holding things up, Broyles said, "His agent."

A 6 p.m. press conference was originally scheduled in Arkansas to announce Nutt's decision. But Broyles said negotiations had "hit a snag."

Nutt was offered a package that is nearly $1 million more annually than Frank Solich's $1.1 million package. Solich was fired on Nov. 29 after a 9-3 regular season.

The rumor down here is that Nebraska has reupped its previous offer to $2.5 million, so Nutt is still thinking it over. I do not understand the sudden overwhelming desire of Nebraska to hire Houston Nutt. He is a good man by all accounts that I've heard, but he's hardly proven to be an outstanding coach, in my opinion at least.

I think he's one of the best in the country. I wouldn't trade him for anyone, myself.

Except Bob Stoops... ;)

Has Norm Chow's name been mentioned with this job?

talk about short-term memory.
this next coach will make it their 4th coach in the last 40+ years.

Nebraska better make sure it gets the next guy that it openly courts, or it could end up with lots of egg on its face.

I wouldnt trade him for Stoops.

Just think of the political implications. Please take Tyrone Willingham.

Now Don Zimmer turned Nebraska down.

Did Nebraska call UNC A.D. Dick Baddour for insights on how to conduct a coaching search?

Next thing we know Eric Crouch will be a candidate.

don zimmer huh. nu must be getting desperate

that's what I'm saying.
