Nutt releases letter refuting rumors
Disappointing? Of course. Funny? Yes. Irritating? On a lesser level, yes. Shocking, surprising, or even in the least bit catching anyone off guard? Heck no.
That whole program crossed the line into total absurdity long ago. First a good football season somehow turns into a huge disappointment in a matter of weeks, then players (and coaches) start fleeing the program faster than they can be stopped, then the Hogs steal a b-ball tourney birth from lots of equally deserving teams, then King Broyles fires a decent coach anyway, what happened next would take far too long to report here, and now we have Nutt defending himself against all sorts of crazy allegations from what were once his fans. One obvious conclusion here is that the Powers That Be and/or Hog fans are completely spoiled and think the athletics world revolves around their school, and their actions are making a mockery of whatever credibility the U of A sports teams may have had left at some point in recent history. I guess for the school as a whole that's a good thing that's been needed for a long time, but it sure is dumb that athletics matters so much in the first place that it can turn into the never-ending soap opera that it has become at Arkansas. What an enormous state-wide embarrassment.
I'm half-tempted to start another blog just to keep up with all this bullbleep. Though on second thought that'd take up far, far too much of my time. This madness shows no signs of abating anytime soon. Um, yeah. Woo pig sooiee.
