What an amazing crap show. 

Outside of major scandal (ncaa violations, real sex abuse issues) could this process be any worse?  Any other examples?

Nebraska sending a plane to pick up Houston Nutt in Arkansas and getting snubbed was pretty good.

I need to hear more about this.



After canning a coach that went 10-3, and played for a natty two years before, the 'skers rolled up in Husker One expecting to take Nutt with them.  He declined and they eventually ended up with Bill "Gold Coin" Callahan.

Quote
OMAHA, Neb. -- Long known as a bastion of coaching
stability, Nebraska hasn't been able to find anyone to take over
its football program.

Where most schools go only a few days between the departure of a
coach and the arrival of a new one, Nebraska athletic director
Steve Pederson on Thursday began the 40th day of his search for
Frank Solich's successor.

Quote
"Had (Nutt) gotten on that plane and gone to Lincoln (Neb.) Jan. 2, the job was his," Sexton told Bo Mattingly, host of "The Trainwreck Show" on ESPN Radio 1190 AM, Friday afternoon. "In fact, there were even discussions about press conferences (announcing Nutt's hiring) the next day.

I think there are a lot of coaches that actually do not want to go to the SEC right now... with the dominance that Alabama has laid down on that league a lot of good coaches just feel there is no chance for them to win especially with Saban most likely not going any where any time soon. With coaches only being given 2-3 years now to provide DRASTIC results (conference championships mixed in with CFB playoff potential) or get canned and banished from head coaching forever for a P5 team, they want to make sure they are setting themselves up for a good 6+ years. Why would any decent coach want to do that unless it was their dream job (alma mater, etc.). Chip Kelly had his choice of Florida, UT, and UCLA and he chose the Pac12 school. Multiple coaches have turned down $6+ mill a year for 5+ years to stay where they are.

Mix that in with how UT fans have treated their past few coaches as well as Curries poor reputation with coaches and his new reputation as being publicly incompetent. UT may just have to start looking at the local high schools to find a coach. A coach is already set up to fail/lose by going to UT right now and it is quite sad.

Whether that dude should have been kicked out or not, what kind of human being doesn't just walk out. Jesus Christ just act like a normal person and you won't end up body slammed.

this is america and you have the right to not be escorted out of a game you paid money for, at a school you go to, and be body slammed just because you started a chant against an administrator. go cross a picket line and be afraid of authority. best of luck.

I may be way off base here, but I bet that kid was like young Pete, and straight crap faced for the game.  Food for thought.

I hope Currie stays and whoever they hire goes 17-19 over 3 seasons, then he gets fired. I want Currie and their idiot fan base to both suffer.

First, Currie continues to show his incompetence in the people management side of being AD and hiring a coach. Brutal. This is actually making me think I'm glad he got oscar when he did, it might have been much worse.

2nd, those fans are crazy. It's like watching Nebraska fans on crack.
