1440 AM Reporter- CTT Leaves Mutually


1440 AM Noon Round Table reporter Doug Amos claims to have been in touch with higher-ups, and he now states that he"believes CTT will not be AU coach next year, and the change will be mutual, and occur before season's end." Will be negotiation process, he says, regarding 6 Mil buy-out. Amos was a print/ TV reporter before radio, so he does have some contacts w/AU people.

How This Is All Going To Go Down

Now, before I explain what has happened and what is going to happen I would like to say a few things.

First, that I posted that Tuberville was told IF he lost the Arkansas game he was going to be terminated. My post was deleted and I was given no reason why. Well, we lost the game. Tuberville has already met with the powers that be and they will negotiate Tuberville's termination.

Thursday and Friday everything will be sorted out and Tuberville has agreed to remain for the rest of the season. This is an amicable split between AU and Tuberville. They did not want another Terry Bowden type situation to occur. Now that that is out of the way...............


As I posted after the Arkansas loss, Butch Davis is the #1 target by our power brokers and will be offered the job. He is one of few people that can neutralize Sabear and Alabama not only in recruiting but in building a very good competent coaching staff. He will be offered a rate at or exceeding 3.5 million a year as in today's big time football world that is the going rate for a "Program Builder" type coach. Butch is not willing to talk during the season but we all know how that really works as there has been contact with his agent and another intermediary that has Auburn ties.

Lane Kiffen has already been contacted and will be a fall back guy if Davis decides not to accept the job. I was told he is NOT neccasarily our #2 guy just that we are keeping our options open.

Additionally, Derek Dooley has also been contacted and is in the same situation as Kiffin. Both would be fall back guys if we for what ever reason could not come to terms with Davis.

Butch Davis is going to want and request FULL CONTROL of the Auburn football program and if he is willing to come our administration better give it to him. Due to how other teams in the SEC have upgraded their coaches our powers that be know we can't accept a mediocre coach and it is why were are going to target Davis a guy who can recruit like hell, put together an excellent staff, and will NOT under any circumstances put up with questionable or illegal practices by bammer.

The future is very bright and we are going to put all of our eggs in one basket and I am confident that we will get our man.

I guess that's what 6 straight wins over Bama will get you. :biggrin:

Not that I'm doubting the rumor; just stating how amazing the college football environment is these days. Saban at Alabama hasn't even beaten Tuberville yet, but his success this year has Auburn scared to death.

Man, the SEC coaching carousel is rather odd and comical:

Alabama: Franchione bolts for A&M. Price, Shula... screw it, let's go broke for Nick Saban, who had just recently coached another SEC team to the national title...

LSU: Loses one coach for more money to the Miami Dolphins, only to have him return to the conference for more money with the Crimson Tide. Meanwhile they hire a coach (and a hat) from Okie State, and win another national title.

Auburn: Let's get rid of a coach that went 13-0 just a few years ago, and has beaten his hated arch-rival 6 times in a row.

Arkansas: HA! It's a badge of honor that this school may have the most disfunctional coaching issues in a conference full of them. Houston Nutt pulls out all the stops to bring in a supposed quarterback stud, along with his receiver and high school coach. It blows up in his face all while his Heisman-trophy contending running back becomes a top pick and leads them to the SEC title game. Coach eventually resigns, and they bring in Bobby Petrino, who just less than 365 days before had left Louisville to coach the Atlanta Falcons of the southeastern dogfighting league.

Mississippi: Meanwhile, Nutt lands at Ole Miss, who just dumped Ed Orgeron, who replaced David Cutcliffe, who had come from Tennessee only to go back to Tennesee and then eventually to Duke.

Florida: Dumped the recruiting "genius" because he couldn't win with Chris Leak. Brought in Urban Meyer, who couldn't 'really' win with Chris Leak unless he had Tim Tebow. And these changes because an alumnus who previously won the Heisman Trophy left for greener pastures of the Washington Redskins, only to land at...

South Carolina

And then there's Tennessee, who has the longest running coach in the league. And let's face it. He actually deserves to be fired.

And he also will NOT under any circumstances put up with questionable or illegal practices by Auburn ... better think twice about that hire, War Eagles....
