There is a meeting tomorrow at 3:30 in the team meeting room. Randy Ross will be leading the meeting. The team knows as much as we know which is nothing. They have been told, however, that they will not know before the media knows as not to leak the information. Orsini and Vaught are continuing in a tight lipped fashion, even after being continually pestered by players.

I would be completely surprised if anything comes from the meeting.

Looks like he's going to Mississippi from press reports & their message boards. $9M (estimate) over x-number of years.

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.

I apologize for the Fulbright/Mills faux pas. I would edit it but I stand up and admit my mistakes.

Heard Nutt speech. He is definetly a class guy. I love how he stated that in 1998 all he heard was whether or not he could be SMU!!

Orville Faubus was about as Democrat as Democrat gets. Faubus is the one that would not allow the integration of Central High School. And yes it as Wilbur Mills (also a Democrat) and Fannie. Pretty hard to find a Republican in Arkansas in those days.

I think it is obvious now that SMU is no longer in the running for Nutt. There are too many good openings for him now. Look for him at GT or Ole Miss or possibly still Baylor.

In all honesty I don't think we ever had the opportunity.

Regardless of his personal life, why would a successful BCS-BS coach 'drop down' to a non-cartel school?

Doesn't make any sense whatsoever unless a playoff system is being instituted within the next 2-3 years :idea:

SMU was N-E-V-E-R in the running for Nutt. SMU would not offer him because they didn't want him.
