Why is Danny Nutt, Assistant Athletics Director for Player Development at Ole Miss, coaching from the sidelines and from the field during football games when he is NOT one of the 9 designated assistant coaches permissable under NCAA rules?

***UPDATE ON THE DANNY NUTT SITUATION (FOLLOWING THE POSTING OF THIS VIDEO) PER CHUCK ROUNSAVILLE:

"The NCAA/SEC sent a ruling down Wednesday (November 26, 2008 - exactly one year to the day after Houston Nutt was forced out at Arkansas) prohibiting Ole Miss administrative assistant Danny Nutt from being on the Rebel sidelines during games. They ruled Danny is actively coaching and nobody but the head coach, nine assistants and two grad assistants are allowed to "coach" during games. Houston Nutt protested the ruling, stating "Danny is not coaching. He's encouraging players, but not coaching them." Houston Nutt's objections fell on unsympathetic ears, it appears, despite the fact that there are several ex-coaches who roam the sidelines of SEC games at other schools.The other two administrative assistants on Houston's staff - Mike Beaumont and Clifton Ealy - are permitted to be on the sidelines, as well as any administrative assistants in the conference. Danny Nutt was singled out. It appears the pseudo-campaign some disgruntled Razorbacks waged against Danny and the Nutts got a response. A pure case of vindictiveness and a fishing expedition by Arkansas that got a bite. Sad deal."
