    What do you expect from a CornHusker - why is it that the MidWest teams have these weird mascots?

    He did beat Texas, but still the money is out of control no way is he worth any of that. Your right about the AD. The world has gone nuts.

    I also think the ad thinks he can bring players from the south to NEB

    there's nothing else in Nebraska for one thing except for the
    AD and he must be a nut scared for his job right now.

    Recruiting season will be over soon and they still don't have a
    coach.

    I hope they have plenty of money to fly thier plane around a
    while, maybe they can throw a couple of football players on
    board and take a world tour while thier at it.

    Arliss Sexton just got some unbelievable "NUTT" leverage ... for Nick.

    Say what you want about NUTT ... but the dip can recruit and coach ... two ingredients for success. He runs a very loose ship and the players are always getting in trouble and embarrassing the University ... especially this year.

    aside from letting his thugs run amok ... he's a good coach ... not worth 2.5MM ... but a good coach.

    Look what he's accomplished at HOGG U in a state with few decent FB prospects & NEXT TO NO CASH RESOURCES

    With BIG RED committed to throw $$$ around, look out for Nebraska. Well, we don't have to look out.

    Nebraska is desperate to get a proven winner. To steal one away from another Div I school requires a powerful financial incentive. $2 million would get them Nutt, IMHO. You should have to have won a championship to be worth $2.5 million.

    I disagree

    Did you miss the 20 Million Dollar Donation by the Waltons of Wal-Mart fame? No cash Resources huh? Who payed for that Rebuilt stadium in Fayettevile? Bud Walton Arena?, etc. Sadly funds were probably allocated for a 24 hour on-call Bail Bondsman. Can he recruit? Nutt went 4-4 in the SEC play this year with many Seniors. He just won his 2nd Bowl game in 6 seasons, with a victory in the Indy Bowl. Nutt has never won an SEC Championship. BTW, LSU committments Brett Helms & Matt Stoltz are not a "Couple of FB prospects". Nutt is in dire need of DL & OL. So what does he do?? Goes out and signs a "Couple of FB prospects" Hillis & Dacus. Nutt is a Nailbiting idiot.

    All SEC Games played since 2000 (including SECCG/s)

    Saban - 24-10
    Nutt - 16-17
