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.)

Here's what I found on the Petrino contract...

"This provision will include your promise and covenant not to accept employment in any coaching capacity with another SEC Western Division school prior to the expiration date of the initial term and any extensions of the term of your agreement with the University," Petrino's contract reads.

The school will hold Petrino responsible for "liquidated damages" of $2.85 million if he chooses to terminate his employment agreement during the "first four years of the initial term" or "any extensions thereto." The agreement does not apply to the fifth year of the initial term of his contract. He also will be paid $750,000 if the university terminates his employment for convenience.

I hope and pray it's not Petrino.

Petrino is a good coach

I think you should be on my Webinar, Scottie B.!

I know he is a good coach but I do not like how he hops around. He could come to Auburn and in one or two years his name will be shopped to every available opening, just like it was when he was in Louisville. We'll be going through this very thing with him every year. But that's just my opinion.

1:00 PM

Webinar canceled. SCORE!

1:01 PM

That's just it Kristina...You are my hero BECAUSE you are a Bama fan.

Petrino = Mercenary
I am sure he would rather catch it from the media for jumping ship than listen to another year of sooooiiii pig or whatever those necks yell in Arkansas

There's no lack of rollage. I mean Jay G. is about to have to appear on the RT with his blog thread sitting at 200+ posts. How much more tension do you need than THAT?

1:05 PM

Like a dog, faker. Wait have we had this conversation before ;-)

Multiple personalities are a great thing to have...Especially on days like this.

Kristina,

We may have discussed this, but it doesn't change the fact that this man doesnt' lie...

Trust me.

They're all mercenaries ... we just want the best one.

I am totally going over to the Auburn athletic complex and getting this straightened out. Is that A-zone parking?

1:09 PM

We have the best one Jay.

Excuse me....Jet

1:09 PM

Listening to Barry McKnight say everything is quiet at the athletic complex tells you how bad things are now. When is the last time it was quiet in that dept. in December?

1:09 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

Sure, faker, I trust you...(eye roll)

1:09 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

awww Seeker, I was just messin with ya! Didn't mean for you to go and delete your post. Sorry. :-(

I want a mercenary. There is a reason everyone is always trying to steal them away. Because they are GOOD

My husband wont give up his a-zone pass...something about I could jepordize his job or some such nonsense. Crazy man!

1:12 PM  
Blogger FSJ said...

Who is this dude on the radio now?

1:12 PM  
Blogger Seanzie said...

A-Zone parking, what if they canned Tuberville and didn't tell him and his A-Zone pass was bad...and when his car is being towed, the meter maid said, oh I'm sorry Coach, did no one tell you? Tub responds "Tell me what?" "Your services are no longer required and along with that no more parking priveleges..." Tub looks over his shoulder and JJ is hiding on the side of the building snickering.

Tubberville has cards?

Monica, why don't you coordinate a 'webinar' with Kristina and she can give us a second-by-second account of all the 'nothing' that is going on. how riveting would that be? :)

Cute new pic Monica!

1:14 PM

Has Jay been on yet?

1:15 PM  
Blogger Monica said...

That's a great idea, Scottie. You really ARE clever. Kristina - run over to wherever and pick up a video camera. When you have that call me.

1:15 PM  
Blogger Roland said...

Skip Holtz is not acceptable

1:15 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

I won a video camera...what exactly are you suggesting?

Why don't you get rid of that tiger in your profile?

1:17 PM

I'm suggesting you go be the roving camera chick and live stream the coverage to the hotties! That's a super duper idea Scottie had.

1:17 PM  
Blogger Jet said...

Cobra ... they got rid of Saul and then got David and Solomon ... and whipped up on the Philistines and the rest of the MEC (Middle East Conference). Of course, it didn't go well after that.

1:17 PM  
Blogger Quitstina said...

Seriously, at one point do people start looking at the state of the entire athletic department?

Ew....zits and boils

But Saul did not go quietly amd David and Solomon had woman troubles

Cobra said, "David and Solomon had woman troubles."

Don't we all?

1:22 PM

You don't, Jet. You're way too smooth.

JustWin - Everyone is on the table. Contracts aren't worth the paper on which they are written if the right about of cash floats.

I don't have women trouble, no.

What are you getting at Mon?

1:26 PM  
Blogger WarEagleRK said...

When PMarsh has a blog that is titled:

"How would this coaching candidate sound?"

Did anyone not think he'd us that to describe Tub's strong points?

1:26 PM

Big piece...

1:26 PM  
Blogger Just Win AU said...

Hey Monica, did you ever get a chance to check out that link for the PTI show yesterday?

1:26 PM  
Blogger Jet said...

I guess this is like in the book "The Firm" when the senior partner takes in the new partners and explains to them the facts of life.

In this case, coaches are hired guns. Power brokers and administrators play hard ball because its millions and millions of dollars at stake.

All for a ball game ... and we've spent three days chasing this. Should it be this important? Doesn't really matter because it is.

No offense, I've seen a lot of a naive talk over the past few days ... in fact, I could have a nice "naivete" scene for the Holidays.

No offense, mind you.

I sent Jacobs an email yesterday asking him to go sit in a PR class at the business school. I told him I thought he could get a discount on the tuition. I can not believe this goof got a profile job like this. What an idiot.
