Tuberville to A & M ???

I would think, he would stay put. If one isn't an A&M fan, why would a young person want to go there?

 

It is widely believed that Tuberville is not happy in Auburn. Feels as though he isn't appreciated. Nebraska or A&M would likely come calling. One rumor has him going to LSU if Miles accepts the Michigan job or NEB or A&M. Another rumor is Saban is interested in Michigan.

I digress...I believe it would be a step down to go from Auburn to A&M, but when you feel unappreciated, anything is a step up.

 

I think that Houston Nutt would be a great fit at Texas A&M.

 

I think he would be crazy to leave Auburn for A&M, but I thought Fran was crazy for leaving Bama for their too.

 

My daughter is a senior at A&M, to truly appreciate the school/life/culture of Texas A&M you only have to step on campus. Most everyone you walk by give you a big Howdy!, you dont step on the grass outside the MSC - memorial student center, you go to midnight yell practice with 20,000 other students the night before a game and hopefully you have a big bonfire before the tu game. Aggies dont have cheerleaders - they have yell leaders who are always men and dress in janitor type all white ujiforms. If you want to join the band you have to be in the Corps (men and women), and that band is Amazing. You stand up throughout the game because you never know when the coach is going to need you. a new student goes to Fish camp for a long weekend to become totally indocrinated into the cult that is Texas A&M - and by the way Texas A&M does not have alumni - they have former students. When a former student goes on a job interview and is wearing thier Aggie Ring (and who doesnt) and the interviewer happens to also be a former Aggie student - that job is just about in the bag! It does not matter when you actually graduate, you will always be the Proudest Member of the Fighting Aggie class of 2008 - or four years after you enter. Aggies dont lie cheat or steal or tolerate those who do - the Aggie code!

I'm not a former student myself - but after all the money I have paid, I should have gotten a ring as well!

If Turbeville goes out for an interview Auburn can say bye bye

 

Another interesting factoid about Texas A&M - of all the schools that send students to SWBTS, Texas A&M sends more than ANY other school - Baptist or otherwise

 

I don't know about SWBTS, but didn't Joe Boyd go to A&M and was an AA in 1939 or 1940 or maybe both years? I know I've enjoyed his preaching over the years.

 

Die hard Auburn fan and huge fan of Coach T.

I'd be really disappointed if he left, but I also understand that he's not happy there and, over the years, the athletic powers that be have made it clear that they're not really in his corner.

A couple of years ago, when there was all of the drama about the "midnight plane ride" that the announcers never shut up about, I would have loved to have seen Bobby Petrino take over, had something happened to Coach T.

If he were to leave now, then I'd like to see them put Borges in the driver's seat.

But I don't believe he's going anywhere.

 

I think going from a decent SEC school to the Big 12 is a step down...but with a school like A&M i can see where they could may the money worth it.

And were you serious about Satan...oops, i meant Saban being interested in the Michigan job if Carr leaves? :laugh:

 

Isn't Saban being paid $4 million per year at Alabama? If the rumor is true how much would Michigan pay him - $6 million?

 

The Big House buyout clause in The Hat's contract is pretty well known.
As for the Saban thing, he doesn't have much of a problem selling his soul to the highest bidder apparently.
I've considered Notre Dame as a potential buyer or USC should Pete Carroll decide to move to the next level probably could pay the big bucks Satan would ask for.

 

:laugh: They tolerated Jackie Sherrill for 7 years :laugh:

 

Saban will go where the money is and the ego food is served. And I pointed out in my first reply that Miles wants the Michigan job. Remember that Saban has Big Ten experience and ties, though. And given that Saban's numbers are pretty equal to Shula's right now (as far as record goes), the grass can always look greener when you just aren't measuring up. Only thing keeping his seat cool is his blowout win over the rival Vols. A good showing against Auburn will keep him cool. A loss against Auburn and Saban's detractors will get louder down Bammer way.

 

Do you really think that Alabama would kick Saban out after only one season before he can even get his own recruits in place?

 

Yeah, "The Hat" is Les Miles down Death Valley way...in reference to the White Hat he wears on the side lines.

I have a step sister who grew up in Auburn and went there for college...it usually makes football season pretty interesting for us.

 

BUT BUT BUT HE'S ST. NICK SABAN!!!!!!!!!!!!

HE'S GOING TO WIN THE SEC JUST BY WALKING ON THE FIELD!!! :laugh:
