Jim Grobe to Arkansas?

He's well respected around hte nation. I think he'll bring discipline to a rather tumultuous program (at least off the field).

My question is what does he have to work with. With runDMC leaving, and Mustain languishing on SC's bench, does he have much overall talent at his disposal? Obviously he has coached WF far above their ability, but the ACC is consistently mediocre. However, they are not that interesting, so they do not receive the same bashing like when the b10 or p10 has down years.

That is why Nutt wanted out of Ark.

If this falls through at the last minute, I suspect I'll be able to see the mushroom cloud from here.

Please welcome your new head coach, [strike]Tommy Tuberville[/strike] [strike]Butch Davis[/strike] [strike]Tommy Bowden[/strike] [strike]Jim Grobe[/strike] Gus Malzahn!

We could sure use a coach with that doesn't put up with the crap that we here at Arkansas have had to deal with for the last year and a half. Oh, and on the Malzahn thing, nobody outside of Springdale wants him here. Like I said in my post on College Football Live the other day, he will just bring more drama! Plus, how can a coach that is two years out of high school football put together a staff worth anything and compete in the SEC or any other major conference. What is an outside oppinion on Malzahn?

well that is good to hear. Do you think it would be a lateral move, step up, or step down to Houston Nutt? Either way, at this point, we need to secure any kind of head coach lateral or better.

Houston Nutt got tossed into oblivion by going to Ole Miss

Don't be shocked if he turn Ole Miss around QUICKLY. Ole Miss has some talent down there. They've recruited well the last few years. Coach O while a great recruiter, and pretty goo D-line coach, had no business being a head coach.
