Tuberville speaks, 1/28

WEDNESDAY NIGHT
Post No. 1,011

Hey everyone. I talked with Tommy Tuberville earlier about his upcoming gig as an ESPN analyst for Signing Day coverage. Ought to be a hoot.

Here's what he told me on the record.

On what he'll be doing with ESPN: ``I'll just be talking about how recruiting and Signing Day work from a coach's perspective," Tuberville said. ``I won't be talking about Auburn. I won't be talking about any schools."

On what he'll be doing with his life: ``I'm too young to retire," Tuberville said. ``I can't play golf for the rest of my life. I've got to do something and earn a living. Coaching is what I know."

Good morning all. It's another big day of online classes and not putting on deoderant for me.

I hope we get some WR's.

But then he'd probably say, "But what about Sullivan026?"

I was thinking of another big name school for Tubs if they have a football program -- Indiana University Purdue University-Indianapolis.

Just kidding. If he wants to coach again, I hope he gets the opportunity. Not sure I see a BCS conference school taking a chance on him, but I could be surprised.

Gat, thanks. I won't lie, I was paid decently and now I'm getting free money to go to school. Not really a bad deal. I just wish Alabama (and every other state) would follow Ohio's lead and wave out of state tuition costs.

They're all jokes, when it comes right down to it I refuse any form of homeopathic treatment. It makes me too unnerved.

I'm getting my lawn chair drunk on and waiting for my girlfriend to come home and tell me "no."

Also, i'm yelling at the neighborhood kids to stay off my grass. Sadly, I'm not wearing argyle socks.

Leftover,

i remember my college days... my last year only had about 12 hours.... classes ended at around 12 everyday.... use to ask everyone what did that want to do for the afternoon...it was a blast!!!

IUPUI has an accomplished Div II team. Maybe Tubs could go there and have to play Tots in the Div II Nat'l Championship game. I'd watch that.

You know what I'd watch, Frankenbummer? A brown bear and a tiger fight. That's what I'd watch.

Aun, heck yeah. It's different now though. I've been going 15 hours for the last year straight, before that it was working for the clampdown.

I'm taking a break and just taking two online classes. It's awesome. I don't even know the meaning of clean underwear, so I just don't wear underwear at all.

Kathy- nice eyes!

Jay GT- Kathy noticed Bryce Brown's arrival listed on Scout for today, not tomorrow like other weekend visitors. If so, that means he would be leaving on Saturday. What do your impeccable sources have to say?
THanks Jay and Kathy!!!

Blogger Griff said...

Yeah, where's all this assistance Tubs was going to provide Auburn?

He can take a hike as far as I'm concerned. He chose loyalty to questionable position coaches over the betterment of AU football. He can take his 8-4 average record somewhere else.

And somewhere in South Georgia, Hugh Nall screams into a CB radio "BREAKER 1-9....BREAKER 1-9...!!!"

Sorry for the mini-rant

If we can get one of those top 3 that are supposed to be here this weekend I might make a mess in my pants.

Blogger Aubie said...

Kathy,
Look at the interest level... none.
??

11:23 AM  
Blogger Kathy said...

Saw that Aubie but also saw where we haven't offered. Both could change! Anything is possible.

11:29 AM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

If he has no interest, why come? Maybe he's hopin' AU changes his mind!

11:32 AM  
Blogger Aubie said...

Fingers crossed on Bryce Brown!!

11:35 AM  
Blogger michael said...

I think I know why he would come to Auburn without an offer and without any interest:

17th Floor is Coming!!!

11:37 AM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

michael, that explains it!

11:40 AM  
Blogger Jet said...

I work on the 17th Floor.

Blogger Jet said...

Maybe Hugh Nall could record a remake of the 1975 smash hit by C.W. McCall, "Convoy."

Instead of "Rubber Duck," his handle could be "Pork Chop."

11:45 AM  
Blogger Cory said...

Anybody else tired of hearing the I need to earn a living thing from Tubs? I mean how much did AU give him? 5.1 million?

Just work on fixing your slice and be done with it.

11:51 AM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

I'm with ya, Cory. See my post from 7:21 a.m.

Blogger hehateme said...

So he's pocketed >$20M in the last 10 years, right? Yep, he needs to earn a living........

12:00 PM  
Blogger Kathy said...

Funny. Brown is off the visitors list now, but he's updated his interest in Auburn to "Med".

He should be up to Medium High by this afternoon.
