There is no doubt in my mind that the Network hired Ed Orgeron for one purpose, and that was to recruit unadulterated and lights out. Then when Ed couldn't produce on the field, Nutt was brought in to take them to back-to-back Cotton Bowls with Ed O's talent. After Nutt petered out, they had to get another "yes man" that the Network could manipulate to get the talent level back up to a decent level.
