To most of us that have a grasp of the obvious, Nutt will be gone soon.

My comment and question is this:
I think there is an historically corrupt culture there from the top down. I have relatives who are rebs and they've bragged about having alums/boosters being given responsibility to take care of and take into the "family" high profile recruits.(my kids don't understand why I will not seeThe Blindside) I don't live in MS and I don't have any inside info. Anyway, when TSUN is recruiting a coach, do they have to be choosy and look for someone that will cooperate and could this be why Nutt has such a high buy out in his contract?
Anyone?</p>

Why would I want to contribute money to a movie that tells a "feel good" story about a group of liars and cheaters? It's nothing but propaganda.

That was a little bit tongue in cheek but thanks for setting me straight.

And it's "mentally challenged" by the way.</p>

because you hate Ole Miss.

It's another thing to not watch it because you believe that the Tuoys can spot NFL 1st round caliber left tackle talent at the age of 15, before the kid has even played one down of organized football.

..of one who refuses to partake in a work of fiction that is passed off as "a true story."


There is a thousand layers of ******** behind the whole Michael Oher thing. One day, the true story behind the Michael Oher phenomenon will come out. It will reveal a huge pile of corruption & sneaky deals cut by the Tuhoys & the University of Mississippi. That's the book I'll read & the movie I'll go see.

I think there were several lies told in the whole story, but I watched it anyway, and that movie sucked.<div>
</div><div>I have no idea why it got as many accolades as it did. If you are going to lie in a feel good story, at least make the lies big and the movie good (See: Rudy)</div>

I thought Houston Nutt was just a terrible actor, but then I heard him speak in real life.

He is actually very natural on the screen.

"They really started coming the spring after my junior football
season," Oher said. "I was very excited. I had these scouts coming
around. Playing football, I thought I could probably do something with
it.</p>

"<span style="font-weight: bold;">I started playing football in eighth grade. I've started
every game since I started playing football except for two games. I
didn't start a game in ninth grade because it was senior night and my
freshman year in college, my first game."</span></p>

that they tried to pass it off as a "feel good story". I also thought it was hilarious that Xenareb adopted Micheal Antonescu of Ridgeland HS and then Ole Miss didn't want him.

I'm sure it's just coincidence that they picked up some random 6'5" 330 pound kid who happened to be homeless and the thought that this guy could possibly be a good football player never crossed their minds. It has to also be coincidence that Greg Hardy and Justin Sparks also went to the same HS and that the head coach of Briarcrest, Hugh Freeze, ended up with a job on the Ole Miss football team.

If MSU had tried to pull that off, orphans would not be allowed to play in the SEC ever again.

But to answer your question- Nutt has a good agent. That's how.
