Houston Nutt= TOOL
Explaining how he signed 39 players in one year:
"I explained it to [Ole Miss athletic director] Pete Boone," Nutt said. "We have so many junior colleges in the state, and we were trying to build a relationship with them. We knew nine of [the signees] were not going to make it academically [qualify for freshmen eligibility]. There's nothing like a young man being able to say, 'I'm coming to Ole Miss eventually.' I think it motivates them."
This really seems like cheating to me, and to have 9 players you know won't be eligible is sad in itself. Sarkisian make a good point at the end of the article about does this mean you don't expect to recruit well the next year?
