…and goes to Mississippi State and beats Auburn next year.

Honestly, this is probably the right move—the alternative was apparently them forcing him to make a bunch of coaching changes he didn’t want to make (which rarely works…cough cough Bill Cubit cough), them predictably doing no better (possibly worse) in ‘09 and making a change anyway. This year, at least Tuberville’s reputation as a good coach is still somewhat intact (though I have no idea why he hired Tony Franklin if he wasn’t going to run the Franklin offense).

… we see a T’Board rumor saying that Tuberville could be our new defensive coordinator if we get rid of Eberflus?
