Auburn guys?????whats up with that crappy hire for a head coach with a
5-19 coacing record??

Don't want to talk about it... we are all befuddled.
However, what is believed to have happend with regards to the Fired/Resigned thing of Tommy Tuberville.
After 'jet gate' in 2003 (google it), he added a clause in his contract that no one with any affiliation to the university can look for a new coach while he is under contract... bobby lowder (very large booster) did just that this year, and thus breached Tuberville's contract. This meant he could resign, go work at another school, and still get paid his buyout...
Jay Jacobs, the AD, says he was paid his buyout because 'it was the right thing to do'. This is BS, and they just royally screwed us over big time.
On the only positive note... Chizik was D-Coordinator during 2004 undefeated season, which is the reason many believe he was hired, because of his ties to the school....The onyl other bright spot is the fact we hired Tulsa's O-Coordinator to be our O-Coordinator. Tulsa had the #2 offense in the nation in 2008 season... So there is potential, without installing some stupid **** 'tony franklin system'
P.S. I digress, back to the topic at hand.... Alabama 28 - Utah 10
