Early Wednesday update

Hey everyone. Let's get the day started.

I just spoke with Jay Jacobs. He said there has been "no change" in anything involving Tommy Tuberville. I have received three calls this morning -- all from credible sources -- insisting that Tuberville has been fired. That's simply inaccurate.

So that's the situation.

The door above provides access to the hallway housing Tuberville's and Jacobs' offices.

UPDATE:
Paul Rhoads and Eddie Gran are in their offices going about their usual duties.

ALSO: I have an idea. Since we all have heard radio people claiming this and that since Monday, would you be up for creating a thread simply to post what the clowns (ie the unscrupulous "reporters") are reporting? That way, everyone can see who was correct and who was completely wrong.

Good idea or not?

(I'm going to get some art to accompany this post.)

this deal reminds me of the ole joke about "how do you keep an idiot in suspense?"

Am I reading you correctly in that you are disagreeing with your sources?

Question - when were Tubs and the assistants hired? What if they are all fired but out of goodwill they are keeping them on until they make 10 years? Wasn't that some benchmark for benefits? That would explain the wait.

They are already at the 10 year mark, I think Michael.

JGT: I have received three calls this morning -- all from credible sources -- insisting that Tuberville has been fired. That's simply inaccurate.

Forgive me if this question seems a bit...impertinent...but how can the sources all be credible if the information they are providing is "simply inaccurate"?

Perhaps they have been credible in the past, or perhaps that are normally credible, or perhaps they have it right this time but it can not yet be verified. But if what they are saying today is in fact inaccurate, then at least as far as the Tuberville situation goes today, they are not credible, yes?

I don't think he's getting fired. When HCs get fired, the AD announces it on a Monday morning. The AD doesn't meet with the HC over a weeklong period to discuss firing him. I would bet that they're discussing the hiring of a new OC, the direction that the offense will go in (because there was no obvious direction this season), how much money they're going to spend on the new OC, etc.

If you trust rumor and innuendo, then I can unofficially confirm with uncertain doubt that there is a remote chance that Tommy Tuberville may or may not have at least a 50% chance of probably returning as AU's coach.

Hey Jay,
I saw this on one of your buddy's blog...this wouldn't be a reference to you would it?

Athletic director Jay Jacobs arrived back at the athletic complex and remarked to one beat reporter that he would like to set up some kind of information relaying system so we wouldn't have to camp out in the lobby. (BTW, he made a similar suggestion last night.)

Either way, what's the deal behind this? Are they setting something up to relay info to you guys?

I think Jacobs is a disaster and Housel seemed to really love Auburn a lot, But then again what do i know

Housel really does love Auburn and is such a nice guy, but his role in Jetgate (even if he was just a patsy) cannot go unnoticed.

The few times I've been around Jacobs, he has seemed like a decent guy. Maybe a little smug, but seems nice enough. Don't really consider him anything more than a puppet with regards to the Athletic Department, though.

Blogger FSJ said...

Jay,

One of the more prominent Bama board moderators (i.e. the board owner) is reporting that Auburn is wanting certain assistants canned and Tuberville isn't agreeing to that.

He said his source says the feeling is that the damage between the two sides would be difficult to repair.

He also said that Miss. State is waiting to see what happens because they may take a run at Tuberville if he is indeed gone.

You can add this to your list of predictions.

11:36 AM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

Will- Agreed totally about Housel. I have a lot of respect for him. It was because of him that I was able to be a football manager at Auburn.

In 1995, I was at the Georgia game and had bought club level seats on the street for dirt cheap because it was so cold. At halftime, I got a tap on the shoulder, and it was David Housel. The AU Box was right behind where I was sitting and he invited me in for half time to warm up. I told him my desire to become a football manager and he directed me to the guy that I needed to speak to in order to do that. We had a good laugh over that when I was there as a football manager. He truely love Auburn.

Sorry, felt obliged to share that story.

11:39 AM  
Blogger KJtiger said...

I do not doubt housel's love for AU. Whenhe had those pregame speaches on the radio you could just tell he loved AU. We all cringe at how CTT was treated in 2003's jetgate but that is how it was done in those days. As a result I think you have seen the whole country change their practices as to fire one hire one. So you could say that AU has made a difference.

Eddie, you just pointed out one of my favortie things about AU. It seems like every AU fan has a story similar to the one you told. It might be Coach Dye, or Tubs, or Bo, or some other AU icon reaching out or going out of their way to shake a hand, sign an autograph, or sit down and chat for a few mins. I don't care if UAT beat us by 36 or 100 last week. I wouldn't trade being an AU fan (and grad) for anything. If our chosen leaders decide that Tubs needs to go (I must say I disagree) then so be it, but he will always be an AU man in my mind. All of us on here understand that AU is much more than a FB team or a Univ. and I thnk Tubs gets that. I just hope the next guy does as well! WDE.

I for one don't buy the Houston Nutt style scenario. Tubby hates MSU (or at least he hated Sherrill), and none of the other jobs make a lot of sense for him.

My theory is that it's one of two things:
1. Some sort of renegotiating of the contract that makes it more favorable for the University
2. They're playing a waiting game with some big name (Butch Davis?).

Otherwise it just doesn't make any sense. Not that it makes a lot to begin with.

United calling out Mr. Sensible and the HABOTN Hotties.

12:26 PM  
Blogger James in Auburn said...

Then Mr. United tried to light up Mr. S. - very lame stuff there.

12:26 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

Ouch. Sorry Mr. United, we talk in English here not habonics. Good lawrd.

12:27 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

I consider myself schooled...

Why is he calling me out?

Blogger PatDyesLiver said...

oops, not 104.5. thinking of my local station in nashville.


105.5 wnsp in mobile.

sorry.

12:27 PM  
Blogger FSJ said...

He didn't explain...He called you Mr. Senseless.

12:28 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

Ok. Sure.

12:28 PM  
Blogger James in Auburn said...

I have an idea Mr. United - you obviously read the HABOTN, so why not register here and then you can "skool" us all?

What a moron. That rivals some of the PF callers for sheer ignorance and having an IQ below 100.

12:29 PM  
Blogger James in Auburn said...

Mr. S.,

He tried to say that you are nice to Josh and Doug on air but then you rip them on the blog.

He came across as quite a tool.

12:30 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

Mr. United= George

12:30 PM  
Blogger WarEagleRK said...

What has this world come to when gimmick talk radio callers call out people on an internet blog?

12:30 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

Yeah, Mr. United is so un-informed. Mr. S is the one who actively promotes the Roundtable and probably deserves quite abit of the credit for all that now listen along with Jay G.

12:31 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

yep, Mr. United is definitley Tim. Maybe he's the dude Jay G kept knocking out of the ball park so he's a bit bitter.

12:31 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

I think Mr. United is Faker.

12:31 PM  
Blogger FSJ said...

He came across as something that rhymes with "woosh"...

12:31 PM  
Blogger FSJ said...

Mon..don't make me go there.

12:32 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

I like Doug and Josh. I don't always agree with them, but I have no beef.

He's just stirring the pot; nothing better to do on the lunch break I suppose.

It's all good.

12:32 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

maybe we should move on and not give Mr. United any more of our time than he deserves...

12:32 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

Back to work for me, gang. Ye who have the email please him me up if anything noteworthy goes down this pm.

Later, Hotties!

12:34 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

Mr. United you should man up and post. We promise not to be mean to you.

(except that I think Mr. U=Faker)

Conference calls stink.

12:40 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

I have to do a geekified Webinar at 2:00.

12:41 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

Awww, faker, are you actually having to work today?

12:42 PM

WEG, works ALWAYS gets in the way. DANG IT

You have the geek part down... :-)

I have a 2-3 easter conference call myself. So I'm sure the news will break while I'm on that. Luckily I can call from my desk and not a conference room.

12:44 PM  
Blogger WarEagleRK said...

eastern, not easter...but I'm sure if they could have me on a call on Easter they would do that too.

Loop hole in the Patrino contract....shocking

12:45 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

Bet on Finebaum to break it. He seems to own these from the radio standpoint.

12:45 PM  
Blogger FSJ said...

Details Kristina?

12:46 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

That's just what Moon said. He said that he thought there was a clause that said he couldn't go to an SEC west school, but then he heard that there is a loop hole that would allow him to go to Auburn.

12:47 PM  
Blogger FSJ said...

Sorry Josh, but I don't believe that for a minute.

12:48 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

Preach it, Country

12:48 PM

Spoke too soon...hush country

They will get a fat TRSA check at some point - no doubt about that.

12:49 PM  
Blogger Scott M. Brannan said...

a webinar.......that sounds fancy. maybe the 'jays' should give that a try.

12:50 PM  
Blogger Jet said...

Already did my conf. call this a.m. And slipped out for a warm bowl of chili.

The time being doesn't have anything to do w/ restructuring the contract for the university's benefit. That's truly the area where Tuberville has no motivation.

This is the separation agreement ... and if it is, then all the whining about the time it has taken is crazy. I will be glad they took the time.

And if they fire him and pay him 6 large, then I will believe they will have at least tried to get him out before paying him the cheese.

12:50 PM

Somebody ping me when Jay G comes up so I can turn the radio up.
