Beating a dead horse.

I really would rather not mention the name of "he who must not be named" (aka Houston Dale Nutt). But, Chris Low on the ESPN SEC Blog did a Q&A with the now infamous coach. I had to read it as I have always got a kick out of his blabbing about how kids have "lot of heart" and "play between the whistles". I was surprised to see that HDN has increased his diction and become a little more spacey than previous. 

I should let the reader interpret for him or herself the intelligence of such an egotist, but I would like to point out a few "red flags" as to the sanity of such a Nutt. 

When asked about the Sr. D-end Greg Hardy's foot surgery, he replied, "... He got a haircut, hasn't missed meeting."

And when asked the hype surrounding said Nutt, he replied, "... But what do you do? I can't control it. The only thing I can try to control is the attitude of our players and how they go about it. I can't control Sports Illustrated and ESPN and all the attention. The only thing I can do is say, 'We've got to work harder.' "

While it maybe true HD Nutt might not be able to control publications about him or the program, he obviously has no problem posing for them either.

Giggitah!

Today’s installment is even more entertaining with HDN’s discussion re all things Arkansas. He does more name dropping than Wally.

Overall it’s sad though. It’s pretty clear he realizes that he’ll never be welcomed back with open arms and I think it kills him. I mean, clearly his dream job was to be the AD and now he’ll probably never receive any sort of formal positive recognition from the University ever.
