Houston Nutt Press Conference Confirmed By Ole Miss

As reported by SBNation.com's Steven Godfrey, the Mississippi Rebels have announced they will hold a press conference at 3 pm ET, featuring Houston Nutt. Athletic director Pete Boone will also attend. SBNation.com has reported it will be announced that Nutt will be fired, while RebelGrove.com reported Nutt will finish out the season before officially stepping down and Red Cup Rebellion reported on Sunday that Nutt wouldn't last beyond the Egg Bowl.

Taken together, the story is that Nutt won’t coach Ole Miss beyond this season, and that the details will be made public Monday afternoon in Oxford. The job status of Boone isn’t quite so clear, but we’ve also reported that his job is in significant danger of its own.
