He sure hasn't said anything to indicate otherwise. The picture that was painted around Boise was that Nutt abandoned his team under the cloak of darkness. As we learned Sunday from Scott Cain's excellent story, it was more Athletic Director Gene Bleymaier not wanting Nutt and Dirk Koetter, who was interviewing for the job, to crash into each other. Or maybe Bleymaier was hot at Nutt for grabbing the golden ring during prime recruiting time. Obviously some of the BSU players don't understand the real deal.
Harts better get ready to smile then.
Koetter, like any head coach, would have had a cow if Nutt had tried to personally stay in touch with those guys. If this job hadn't come along, I probably would still be there. I'm glad they blamed me instead of Bart, but you can see now it was the right decision. Hendricks hasn't forgotten the confidence Nutt showed in him. He was good for me.
