My brother-in-law is moving to Huntsville from Chicago this summer and he didn't know who Tuberville was. Was pretty funny explaining/showing him lol
Governor Tuberville?
- Thread starter Crimson1967
- Start date
There's a reason why shortly after he was elected to the senate, Capitol Hill's defense promptly fell apart.He's the guy who would call a fake punt on his own 8 yd line.
I used to think that people in poor states were poorly lead by their leaders, then I started to realize the voters just aren't educated/smart enough to elect leaders that are statespersons working for the benefit of all of those in their state instead of back room leaders that work for wealth concentration and personal power/wealth. Tommy Tubberville is just another one of those lackluster power-concentrating self-enriching leaders that a will only deliver wealth and power for a few people.

GOP chatters about Auburn coach Bruce Pearl for Senate
Another Alabama senator named coach? There’s some talk about it.
With Sen. Tommy Tuberville announcing a run for governor on Tuesday, there’s already discussion about who will replace him. And one of the names being floated is Auburn men’s basketball coach Bruce Pearl, an outspoken Israel supporter and opponent of antisemitism.
One person familiar with the situation said they heard Pearl plans to run  he’s chairman of the US Israel Education Association, and he was on Capitol Hill just last week. His X feed, meanwhile, isn’t what one would typically expect of a head college coach: One of his most recent posts calls for dismantling Iran’s nuclear program.
Despite his clear interest in some political issues, others are skeptical Pearl would ever get into the race and see him as a longshot given his success on the court.
After all, there’s a $6 million reason why he might decide to stay at Auburn, where Pearl led his team to the Final Four this spring. He was also honored earlier this year as the Associated Press co-coach of the year.
“The compensation is a little bit different,†Tuberville told Semafor before his Tuesday announcement. “I wouldn’t let him do it because he did such a good job at Auburn. We need him there.â€Â
Tuberville said he did not believe Pearl would go through it. Pearl could not be reached for comment for this story despite several attempts.
Tuberville helped pave the way for a coach-to-lawmaker pipeline. He ran for Senate in 2020 after a long career coaching college football, working as Auburn’s head football coach from 1999 to 2008.
Tuberville told Semafor that “if I do this thing with the governor, we’ll have somebody good to have an opportunity to run†for the Senate seat.
Though Tuberville beat an incumbent Democrat in 2020, his seat is now seen as safely red and as a result is likely to draw plenty of attention from GOP hopefuls in the House and state government in Alabama, in addition to Pearl.
He's the guy who would call a fake punt on his own 8 yd line.
That's right. I know another guy who would call one on his own 20 in a NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME......
