Baseball had Harry "the Hat" Walker. The Arkansas press has Harry "THe Hack" King. His column in today's edition of the Stephens papers, hits a new low. Rather than admit his boy Houston Nutt might not be the greatest thing to ever come up I-540, The Hack King went on a little diatribe about how coaches' pay doesn't guarantee victory, citing Alabama's 2 losses since beating the Hogs. Huh?!!!

This guy's nose is imbedded in HDN's hindquarters just as much as Nutt's nose is in Broyles'.This guy's writing sinks deeper all the time. Remember when he said LSU was overrated because they lost JaMarcus Russell? He needs to be writing about the best early-bird specials or something.

The tradition of the Arkansas sports press is to put the Hogs coach up on a
pedeastal as long as they're on the Hill, then trash them with the help of leaks from Big Frank as soon as they're gone. But only after telling us that coaching doesn't matter, it never helps to fire the coach, etc.

I would prefer that Nutt get another job regardless of what happens the rest of the season, but if he doesn't....There is no question that the UA football program would be left better than he found it.

The fact remains that Nutt's best year was his first. It seems clear that he has taken the program as far as he can. The Peter Principle still applies here. The fanbase has never been more divided and Nutt is incapable of putting it back together due to his lies and deceptions. It's time for a change!
