re: Charlie Weis wants to hire Dave Cutcliffe, former head coach at Ole Miss, as his Offensive Coordinator, along with another offensive coach, Latina, who had recently accepted a job from Steve Spurrier at South Carolina. Probably hadn't unpacked his suitcase.
Cutcliffe Fired At Ole Miss
Dec 1, 2004
Sources close to the Ole Miss football program say head football coach David Cutcliffe has been fired in a dispute over his assistant coaches. Those sources say the university fired Cutcliffe because of his refusal to dismiss some of his assistant coaches... reportedly, offensive coordinator John Latina and defensive coordinator Chuck Driesbach.
The apparent dismissal of Cutcliffe, who posted a 44-29 record in six seasons, comes just one year after he led the Rebels to a 10-3 record and a berth in the Cotton Bowl. Cutcliffe, the former Tennessee Vols offensive coordinator, was the only head coach in Ole Miss history to win at least 7 games in his first five years. The Rebels finished 4-7 this past season... their worst record in 10 years.
