An unofficial Auburn representative has reached out to people close to Arkansas' Bobby Petrino and Texas Tech's Mike Leach to gauge their interest in succeeding Tommy Tuberville if the school decides to fire him, a source familiar with the contacts told The Birmingham News.
Those contacts took place before talks between Tuberville and Auburn officials about the coach's future resumed today.
Three sources close to the Leach camp said the Texas Tech coach would consider Auburn if the job were open.
An official announcement could come today. It was unclear whether Tuberville was fired or resigned.
Don't be too upset, rumors are that Miss St. will make a big push for him."sniffle" Im in tears I tell you! Its not fair! We should have been given the chance to beat that little twerp 9 more years before they got rid of him!Life is so unfair!
