On Lebo Watch 2010

Hey everyone. I left Nashville early this morning to get on campus for what will be an eventful day. I consider it very likely (ie >98.5%) that Jeff Lebo will get fired.

I haven't yet confirmed that on the record. Until I do, I must leave the situation open-ended. You know my rules.

The Tigers ended their season with a loss to Florida last night, capping a 15-17 season. Lebo is 96-93 in six seasons on the Plains.

I'll update with information as it becomes available.

Though we haven't yet confirmed that Lebo has been fired, here are some guys you need to know about:

**Chuck Person, special assistant with the L.A. Lakers

**Mike Anderson, coach at Missouri, makes $1.3 million right now and turned down advances from Georgia last year

**Tony Barbee, coach at UTEP and former John Calipari assistant

**Danny Manning, assistant coach at Kansas

**Nate James, assistant coach at Duke

**Johnny Jones, coach at North Texas (headed to the NCAAs) and played at LSU

**Ron Hunter, coach at IUPUI, has won 66 games in three seasons including one NCAA appearance

"Lebo Lego"; 1:43 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Michael - made a home? Those are the friendly domestic alligators. Heck, I bet some of them are already members of the local country club. It's the rogue homeless gators that lurk in the shadows waiting to eat you and/or your pets that concern me.; 1:46 PM

Matt said...: Francisco Aihe's Facebook status: "oo man, things about to get reeeeeealll ugly in auburn for a minute. you will soon see what im talking about."; 1:50 PM
Kathy said...: No. JGT knows Lebo is out he is waiting for the official word. He had it at 98+%.; 1:50 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: that's 40 lashes Kathy!; 1:51 PM
stupup74 said...: Someone in the athletic department needs to lob Scott Drew's (Baylor HC) agent a phone call.; 1:53 PM
digger4au said...: Me either Tar Hill; 1:54 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Wade obviously not familiar with HABOTN sourcing and protocol.; 1:54 PM
Scott Coats said...: Call me naive and uninformed...who is Francisco Aihe?; 1:54 PM
digger4au said...: Heel that is; 1:54 PM
AUTIGER78 said...: 2% scoopage; 1:54 PM
Kathy said...: Should I delete my comment? I didn't mean to step on any toes.; 1:54 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Kathy - you provided a source. I don't think "JOX" qualifies, though.; 1:56 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Hoopie- Yeah, but I've been this way for awhile. Change in this situation is good.

Rollison- I really hope he stays for the Spring and competes. That could change things for him.; 1:57 PM
Jimmy said...: Did we not pursue Mike Anderson for the job originally, when Ellis was fired?; 1:57 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I don't want any dukie at AU!!!

Manning? Hmmmm; 1:57 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Francis Aihe used to be an Auburn player. Now he's a manager or something like that.; 1:57 PM
AUTIGER78 said...: Calm down, it was just a joke. I am very familiar with HABOTN protocol; I'm here daily, post rarely.; 1:58 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Anderson refused to interview for the job in 2004, so Ed Richardson scratched his name from the list.; 1:58 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: thanks for educating the ignorant, JGT.; 1:58 PM
Kathy said...: I don't know much about who the hot basketball coaches are right now, so I'll leave that debate up to the rest of you Hotties.; 1:59 PM
Scott Chocolate said...: Aihe didn't play much at all and went by "Francis" instead of "Francisco", I think.; 2:00 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: JGT - did the athletic dept give the beat writers a time for some presser, or did they just say "y'all should hang around the athletic complex on Friday"; 2:00 PM
War Eagle Girl said...: I guess the Lebo Watch is over. That went fast.; 2:00 PM
War Eagle Girl said...: Or slow if you've been watching for 6 years.; 2:01 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: LOL, WEG!; 2:01 PM
chip chip said...: just reported on espn.; 2:02 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Someone I trust told me last night that I needed to be here today.; 2:02 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Ginger Hottie for AUBBHC.; 2:02 PM
chip chip said...: bham news reporting the moving van is on its way too.; 2:03 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: what are you doing here, chip chip? Shouldn't you be getting that uhaul over to Lebo's house?; 2:03 PM
Loganville Tiger said...: Nice avatar change Chip.; 2:03 PM
ADP said...: Just got a text that Lebo is out. You can use me as the source. I'm credible.

Tell you what, I could get REALLY excited about Danny Manning.; 2:04 PM
digger4au said...: They are talking about Lebo on the SEC network and saying the Birminghan news has reported that he is gone. They are defending Lebo saying he wasn't given a fair shake.
He should get a couple of years with the new facility.
66 63 Ky 1:30 left; 2:05 PM
War Eagle Girl said...: yea, but in the end it is hard for the family...kids in school etc. It's a tough way to make a living but it pays more than my job.; 2:05 PM
Jimmy said...: Well I did like Lebo, but I do understand this move.
With a new arena opening, this may be the only shot at attracting a superior talent base of coaches.; 2:06 PM
API said...: I believe in Lebo, and I love him.

Seriously, Lebo has put up with more of our crap than we have put up with his losing.; 2:06 PM
ADP said...: Danny Manning ... Wow. I'm going to have trouble sleeping tonight.; 2:06 PM
War Eagle Girl said...: Of course, this is a military wife talking and I was moving every 2 years but the pay wasn't quite as good.; 2:07 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I agree API. Of course, it would be very hard for me to dislike a former Tar Heel.; 2:08 PM
ADP said...: I just got one thing to say ... Buh bye.; 2:09 PM
Scott Chocolate said...: Ashley Judd now standing and cheering.; 2:09 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: WHERE???; 2:10 PM
digger4au said...: At the KY game; 2:12 PM
chip chip said...: This comment has been removed by the author.; 2:12 PM
digger4au said...: Final KY 73 Al 67; 2:13 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: with that news, I'm just as happy as Ashley... just not as attractive.; 2:13 PM
ehyou said...: I don't know about Danny Manning's coaching prowess. I do know he was one of the best college players I've ever watched.; 2:14 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I watched Danny's dad play for the Carolina Cougars in the ABA. Got a program somewhere with all their autographs; 2:15 PM
chip chip said...: i wonder if we see a mass exodus of recruits and underclassmen as happened when lebo was hired.; 2:15 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I know nothing about Johnny Jones or Ron Hunter.; 2:16 PM
wtc said...: I just think it is a mistake to get rid of him but will live with the decision.
Chuck Person is not the answer.

Sidney Lowe, Sidney Moncrief, Clyde Drexler were just but 3 great players at their school that flopped as HC at their school.; 2:17 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: FIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!; 2:17 PM
ehyou said...: chip...
We have recruits?; 2:18 PM
CHB said...: Bham news is reporting Lebo has been fired. Hope they have a really good plan and act quickly. I like a few of the names G listed. Although I don't know anything about his coaching ability I think Person would bring a lot of energy to Auburn. I am also interested in Manning.; 2:18 PM
chip chip said...: killingsworth etc. leaving almost immediately said "uh-oh" to me from day one but i just hoped it was malcontent players not wanting to adjust to a new system. prolly a little of both but his lack of success over the longer term kind of validates those players that decided to leave for whatever reason. they saw a better chance of success somewhere else.; 2:18 PM
CHB said...: Anderson would be a good choice, but the others don't really bring much in my opinion. I would like us to look at the New Mexico and the BYU coaches.; 2:19 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Killingsworth didn't exactly light it up after he left, either.; 2:20 PM
CHB said...: Chip, Killingsworth had a poor attitude and didn't want to work hard for Lebo. The story I alwasy heard was that Ellis had been allowing him to pretty much do what he wanted and to work out when ever he wanted instead of with the team.; 2:21 PM
chip chip said...: lebo supposedly had a pretty highly rated bunch coming in next year. that was one of the things folks that wanted to keep him used to make their case. but we've heard this story before.

ellis had wrecked it pretty bad when lebo got here sign juco heavy class after juco heavy class and not developing an internal pipeline. lebo did well with the few bodies he was allowed over the first few years.; 2:22 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: OK. Moratorium on all "Birmingham News is reporting" comments.

We know that. We've discussed that. I told you all that. I have rules under which I must operate and that's how it's going to be.; 2:24 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: These are not my rules, but I must live by them nonetheless.; 2:25 PM
Scott Chocolate said...: Seems like after he left AU, I remember Killingsworth saying something about making it to the NBA and Marquis Daniels saying, "The only way he's getting to the NBA is if he buys a ticket".; 2:25 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: yep, the B'ham news isn't providing any proof.; 2:25 PM
digger4au said...: We are with you JGT I made my comments of the TV guys because of the way they were defending Lebo.; 2:26 PM
Norm said...: Sportswriter Tate - would it be inappropriate to say "Norm is reporting..."?; 2:26 PM
chip chip said...: i know a few of those players were kinda punks. as i said, some of that was malcontent players. but don't you think calapari has to put up with some s**t from cousins and wall? sometimes as a bball coach you gotta pucker up to get the high profile guys and win games.

jgt, as homage to mister lebo, please post the picture of him with jj and fortner at the arena groundbreaking on the firing thread.; 2:26 PM
wtc said...: John Brady, MIke Anderson are the two I would like to see. If not htem, go after the Baylor, Sam houston State or Niagra HC.; 2:27 PM
michael said...: Birmingham News is reporting that a local 9 year old kid came in 3rd place in an NFL punt, pass, and kick contest.

http://blog.al.com/press-register-sports/2010/03/local_9-year-old_a_top_kicker.html; 2:28 PM
michael said...: Oh sorry Jay G, my bad. Didn't see the moratorium until now.; 2:28 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Charles' reporting is spot on, I'm sure of it, but I can't just credit information like that to the wind. I have to put a name with it.; 2:28 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Has the west won a game vs the east in the tourney yet?; 2:29 PM
wtc said...: Killingsworth went to Indiana U
One kid went to play at Ole Miss and did well
One kid went to FSU and did very well.
Why did they not stay at AU?; 2:29 PM
digger4au said...: So there has been no official annoucement from Auburn.; 2:29 PM
Unknown said...: Nobody is fired until Jay G says he is fired!!!; 2:30 PM
wtc said...: WERk-UAT beat So Carolina last night. That is all.; 2:31 PM
chip chip said...: $1.5M buyout. cry me a river.; 2:31 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: how about, "...according to Mr. Sources of the Auburn Athletic Department."

Would that work?; 2:31 PM
Jet said...: Of those names ... my preference would be ...

1. Anderson
2. Hunter
3. Jones

Scott Drew would be a fool to come to Auburn. I'm not interested in Brady.

I think we're looking the right direction. It's just a matter of finding the right guy.; 2:31 PM
Unknown said...: Bellefay1, that $1.5 Million he is going to collect should ease some of his pain. I am not certain getting rid of Lebo is the best thing for Auburn, but he ain't going to be hurting anytime soon.; 2:31 PM
ehyou said...: Watch Lebo go somewhere else now and take off like a rocket.; 2:32 PM
michael said...: Maybe Lebo cut off all the departed players' "supplementary stipend".; 2:32 PM
digger4au said...: ehyou it could happen; 2:33 PM
Jet said...: Michael ... exactly.; 2:33 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: JGT - are y'all hanging around outside, or in the press room, or banging on JJ's door?; 2:33 PM
wtc said...: Lebo won 63% of games at Tenn Tech, 66% at Chattanooga and 50% at AU. (overall record); 2:33 PM
Loganville Tiger said...: His family will do Just Fine with that $1.5 Mill byout Bellefay1.; 2:34 PM
chip chip said...: higher competition level in sec?; 2:34 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Didn't Dewayne Curtis, follow the money...I mean an assistant coach to Ole Miss?

Toney Douglas just went where his dad wanted him to go.; 2:35 PM
michael said...: I still am of the belief that huge buyouts are hollow after you have failed professionally. It's not like he was hurting for money before, and money don't buy happiness.; 2:36 PM
chip chip said...: that is the seedy underbelly calapari etc. revel in dealing with to get the big time players and big time wins.; 2:36 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I've got happiness. I just want some money.; 2:37 PM
Unknown said...: Michael, being miserable with $1.5 Million is much better than being miserable without it.; 2:37 PM
digger4au said...: Buy-outs never cover the pain.
For the man or family.; 2:38 PM
ADP said...: I used myself as the source because I AM PHRED. I am a source unto myself.
I think we do have the things we need to attract a good coach. We have A LOT OF MONEY. We also have a BRAND NEW ARENA, and it is seriously bad ass. We have a pretty good recruiting class coming in. But the first two, that makes the deal a deal. We could get somebody good if we are willing to pay for it and he would be walking into an environment (new arena) where he could make himself a legend. Really.; 2:38 PM
Jimmy said...: Jay does the school set an embargo until an official announcement?

I understand entertainment press/pr, but have little knowledge of sports press.; 2:39 PM
chip chip said...: i really hope lebo does prove what a poop ship the AU bball program itself was while he was here and succeeds wherever he lands. we all need to understand there were a lot things apparently out of his control as far as player recruitment, facilities etc.; 2:40 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I'm willing to test that theory for $1.5million, digger ;-); 2:40 PM
CHB said...: Sorry to step on anyone's toes G. I was just stating what I heard on during the KU/UAT game.; 2:40 PM
CHB said...: Two coaches I don't want are Brady and Charles Barkley.; 2:40 PM
Loganville Tiger said...: I would love to be able to test your theory Michael.; 2:41 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: I have no problem with Brady.; 2:41 PM
michael said...: Yes, a buyout is better than nothing. But I am sure the feeling is more akin to collecting life insurance than it is getting an actual performance bonus.; 2:42 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Jimmy - it's Jay's boss, the Montgomery Advertiser that does not allow JGT to post any news without a defined source. I.e. "sources say" just doesn't cut it.; 2:42 PM
chip chip said...: then just don't ever extend his contract and let it run out. no buyout. then hire new coach. then you impact recruiting etc. not that lebo having job security has improved the talent level he has brought in over the last 4+ years.; 2:43 PM
digger4au said...: This comment has been removed by the author.; 2:43 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: John Brady ain't happenin.; 2:44 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Chip- Coaches used to have multi-year contract without buyouts and if you don't think so, just look at bama to see so.; 2:45 PM
Jet said...: CH ... On brady and barkley, we agree!; 2:45 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Brady won't happen due to NCAA issues would be my guess then.; 2:46 PM
Jet said...: At 2:45 p.m., Jet says the most logical, achievable candidate -- and an impressive one if you research him -- is Ron Hunter of IUPUI.; 2:46 PM
chip chip said...: if the next coach can simply improve ft shooting by 10% AU wins 4-6 more games a year on average and is on the bubble most years if not in the tourney. i definitely expect a rebuilding year next year whoever the coach is.; 2:47 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Go after Steve Alford at New Mexico. He would be a top notch hire, but doubt he would leave.; 2:47 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Jet- Auburn has a history in hiring coaches that have lost to the previous HC in his last season.; 2:48 PM
Jimmy said...: got it THT, just good solid Journalism; 2:48 PM
ADP said...: What is all this pity crap. AU is not running a charity. Lebo sucked. Period. You don't get paid for suckin'.; 2:49 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: My goal is to never be wrong on breaking news. I'm at 100% for my career so far.; 2:49 PM
ehyou said...: I just heard Tony Barbee mentioned. Who is that?; 2:49 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Well said Phred.; 2:49 PM
Unknown said...: Barkley has proven that his skill set is more suited to the Taco industry and evaluating football coaching hires. I wouldn't want to see him spoil that by letting basketball interfere.; 2:50 PM
Norm said...: Phred - presumably you're referring to athletics specifically?; 2:50 PM
chip chip said...: oh i'm sure there are plenty of coaches without buyouts. it's just that it can and will be used against you on the the cruitin' trail if your coach doesn't have one. i don't think you should get nuthin' if you suck at what you do. lebo didn't suck, but his results were below average for whatever reason(s) folks like to cite.; 2:50 PM
Jet said...: Why the hate? The guy's leaving. You pay the man like you said you would. Shake his hand. Thank him, and send him on his way.

No reason to be tacky.; 2:50 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: ehyou- Barbee is the UTEP coach, a Calipari disciple.; 2:50 PM
Jet said...: Tony Barbee = UTEP.

Good coach. Likely to hold out for something better than AU.; 2:51 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: i want a golden parachute. i'd pawn that fool.; 2:51 PM
Unknown said...: If I recall correctly, Ole Miss was the only SEC team we beat the year before we hired Tuberville. I always considered that a unique strategy.; 2:51 PM
Kathy said...: JGT did you see Jay? Andrew Gribble said Athletic Director Jay Jacobs and assistant athletic director Bernard Hill just walked into the locker rooms to address the team.

http://www2.oanow.com/oan/oasports/comments/report_jeff_lebo_out_as_auburns_head_coach/137872/; 2:52 PM
Unknown said...: We hate because it is an Auburn tradition to hate former coaches.; 2:53 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Not many people hate Pat Dye.; 2:53 PM
chip chip said...: with the village and AU arena etc., AU may be something better. this is not the old AU program and i see them being able to attract many candidates with a wide variety of upside in how they operate their programs.; 2:53 PM
cincytiger said...: Hi Hotties! I'm back to the land of the living. Got home at 10:30, hubby poured me into bed and I just now regained consciousness. The drugs were great - all I remember is the nurse telling me how pretty my nails were and then I was gone!

Scott C, I come up as Vincent on that little tracker thingy. Not sure why.

Glad to get back before the fireworks started.; 2:54 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: yep, it was Ole Miss in '98 sfc. i went to every freaking game that year. 3-8. never again!; 2:54 PM
chip chip said...: do they need a bball coach in lubbock?; 2:55 PM
Unknown said...: Dye got us on probation and let the program get out of control. I don't hate him, but he made some bad mistakes.; 2:55 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Great to see you with the living, Cincy. We were hoping for a live blog this morning.; 2:56 PM
ehyou said...: Are we talking cage match?; 2:56 PM
chip chip said...: maybe tubs could hire lebo to coach his WRs.; 2:56 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Scottie- All your fault. You drug us down that year and we had to ship you off to a different sport.; 2:56 PM
chip chip said...: dye was instrumental in getting the iron bowl into Auburn, AL. nough said.; 2:57 PM
Jet said...: New name:

Vincent "Bo" Cincy; 2:57 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Chip- He would have had about the same qualifications as Knox had.; 2:57 PM
Jet said...: Coach Dye made us relevant. Made us winners.; 2:58 PM
Unknown said...: You still have to love the way Dye turned the program around in the early 80s. He was a tough nosed coach. Many players quit the team when he arrived, but those that stayed ended up loving him.; 2:58 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Only at Auburn could a thread about a fired basketball coach turn into a football thread. Got to love it :).; 2:59 PM
API said...: And PMarsh is reporting .....; 2:59 PM
Jet said...: Lebo = long snapper coach.

Nah. Just kidding. I wish the guy tons of success at a small school somewhere.; 2:59 PM
Jet said...: Dang right, Eduardo.; 2:59 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: I know where Jay is, I haven't yet spoken with him. I expect to get something from him within the hour.; 3:00 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: does he name his source, API?; 3:00 PM
chip chip said...: a few more sec champs than tubs too.

tubs and tot still have the undefeated season to their credit.

i have thought every coach since barfield has been a very good fit and just what AU needed at the time he was hired. biggest question to me of all was chiz. no more.; 3:00 PM
Loganville Tiger said...: Agreed Steve on the health being part of the problem.; 3:00 PM
Unknown said...: Would Person be a good choice as the basketball coach? He certainly has the name recognition and I don't recall him having the foot in mouth disease of Barkley.; 3:01 PM
ADP said...: Norm - your assumption is correct. I thought about that right after I hit enter. I thought "Boy, Micheal is going to have a field day with that one."

Jet - if you were talking to me, I'm not hating. He should get his buy out because that was THE DEAL. Deals should not be broken. I was referring to the sympathy comments.; 3:02 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Steve,

Except for Terry Bowden, how many former Auburn head coaches are hated?

Thanks for your "tradition" lesson.; 3:02 PM
API said...: THT - Nope.; 3:02 PM
stupup74 said...: Scott Drew, Scott Drew, Scott Drew.

Say that name over and over hotties, you will like it.

That's my guy, but I could be wishing on a star.; 3:03 PM
Unknown said...: You are welcome.; 3:03 PM
stupup74 said...: Flip the page; 3:03 PM
Loganville Tiger said...: I wish I could offer something here - but I'm not a B'ball fan - but will sit back watch and listen and try to learn.; 3:03 PM
wtc said...: Keep an eye on the coach from UTEP. Also the assistant at U Tenn.

I don't know anything, but saying keep an eye on them.; 3:04 PM
Jet said...: Phred ...

Boy, you're strict.

It's not like Lebo ever went duck hunting.; 3:04 PM
Unknown said...: As for examples, Franklin, Borges, Muschamp, and even Chizik come to mind. Yes, the hate was flowing for Chizik when he headed to Texas.; 3:04 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Barbee is a good one, yes.; 3:05 PM
Loganville Tiger said...: I was upset When Petrino left...

What In The Hell Was I Thinking!!!!; 3:06 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: What if I told you Chuck Person would bring with him a recognizable name from the NBA and college ranks?; 3:06 PM
chip chip said...: i don't hate tot. he could have been better if he had any work ethic while he was there. AU needed a hire like tot and his hot start should have made him and AU take off like a rocket. similarly, tubs looks to have mailed it in after 04 on the trail. bammer had to find a way to take dye down and he and his coaches gave them all the ammo they needed.

fyi, i am reporting to all jeff lebo has been fired.; 3:06 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Apparently Steve's definition of hate is different than mine. I'm sure it's on the only word that might be different, but it is among them.; 3:06 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: SteveFC - just because you hated doesn't mean we all hated. Only one name comes to mind that deserved the hate... it's on the tip of my tongue.... oh yes, now I remember... TRAITOR.; 3:06 PM
Jet said...: Loganville ... the truth is ... you were right. Petrino is a heckuva coach. He just has wandering eyes like a lot of 'em.; 3:07 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: lemme guess JG......

WESLEY PERSON?????

:); 3:07 PM
Unknown said...: I wonder if we end up going after another up and comer, of if Auburn will go after a successful coach at a decent school.; 3:07 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: JGT - what if I told you... NO, PLEASE NO!!!; 3:07 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Not Wesley Person, no.; 3:08 PM
chip chip said...: i want a program marketer. you can win more with more talent and less coaching. with good coaching and less talent...i give you AU basketball under jeff lebo.; 3:09 PM
Norm said...: Off topic but,

Picture of hate; 3:09 PM
