Mixed Nutts

It's All Hitting The Fan

Now that the Demozette, the statewide paper has picked up on the release of more Mrs. Nuttcase emails, the heat will be turned up on Hootie. Reports have been online for a week or so but are just now hitting the MSM. Hootie Nutt, Paw Paw Broyles and many others have to be sweating with info they have fought hard to keep a lid on now available to the press and public. These emails will reveal to fans how desperate the Murray State Mafia and their enablers in the BAC have been the last 2 years to maintain power.

With Paw Paw leaving soon, Hootie surely knows with all the negative publicity he and his "posse" have received along with the 3 early giveaway losses that his days as Head Coach are numbered. If he somehow survives this season, next year the ax will certainly fall.

With no Hillis or Monk and the probability of DMac and Felix Jones playing on Sundays, Texas and Florida popping back up on the schedule and a new secondary...Hootie might be advised to update the old resume.

With no Broyles to cover for him and Jeff Long having had a year to get established, no way Hootie survives a 6-6 or losing season, which will be almost a certainty.

Baylor, Memphis and others on that level may be looking for a coach. SMU already has an opening. Hootie might want to put his "superagent" Jimmy Sexton in contact with the movers and shakers at those schools.

In my opinion it would be a waste of time for Nuttbar to try for bigger jobs. If he's not radioactive yet, he probably will be by then as far as major conference schools.

As for the Tennessee game, the excuses are already being made in anticipation of a loss. Injuries and a funeral have thinned the ranks at safety, a critical position against a passing team with a Senior QB.

The Hogs may be able to outscore the Vols, who have some problems on defense themselves. I predict it will be a tossup with Hootie doing something stupid to give the game away in the final minutes. Hope I'm wrong.

You see, I'm not one of those fans rooting for the Hogs to lose which would increase the chances of Hootie leaving. It seems to most of us that he's gone one way or the other. May not be 'til next year, but he will be gone and for that we can all be thankful.
