Here is the latest on the Tubby saga.....
The guru's latest is that Tubby had a wonderful lunch in Helena, AR (perhaps warbird on a stick?) then departed to the Tunica airport. Since then, the flight proceeded to the Auburn-Opelika airport where it landed early trying to sneak in to avoid the jealout fans....didn't work. After landing....ONLY the asst. coaches who went on the hunt departed the aircraft. No sight of Tubby. The plane has now departed enroute back to Tunica. It is rumored that TT is going to continue his hunt tomorrow with Jerry"Dallas Cowboy" Jones and a representative from the Arkansas athletic dept.
Nothing like a good ole fashion negotiation with guns....:cool:

Tubby actually was on the plane. He got off at the aircraft at another hangar before the aircraft taxied to the FBO.
?Sources indicate AU is set to offer Tuberville a 2-year extension in writing this afternoon. Tuberville is set to speak and likely meet with AU officals this afternoon.?
1. An extension that will up his contract to six years and include a 200K increase each year. The contract would make him a $4 million dollar coach by year six.
2. Refurbish the weight room and training table.
3. Offer three options to Tuberville on building an indoor practice facility.
Stay tuned.....

Where on earth are you getting this info?
Tub wants his buyout lowered and better salaries for his assistants (in addition to the things you mentioned). If those two options aren't on the table.....not sure where this thing will go.
One thing is obvious: Tubberville is going to get a raise, be it at AU or ARK.

He is hunting for a raise.
Beach Comber
He needs a reduction.........Ear reduction.
No seriously, I think he stays in Lee County....for a large raise of course.
He has AuBarn by the nads.

The information is very strong....
This will play out by Sunday. Deadlines will be set by AU and UA. I think that anyone who knows for sure....is lying...except Tubby and maybe his wife.....:blink:
I wouuld be surprised if he bolts...because Auburn has to show that their "Johnson" is as big as Alabama's.....and they will also sell their soul to Lucifer....:cool:

Not like he has not bailed before for more money, let me see what was his comment, " it would take a pine box to get me to leave Ole Miss"
All it took was a private plane and more money.

The Latest from Hogland....
It "appears" that TT isn't going to Arkansas. Stating that....he hasn't come to terms with Auburn yet....didn't like their counter from Friday.
Arkansas supposedly has come to terms with a coach and are hammering out the money, but it looks like a done deal.
Who is it? Here is the two probables and one is a stunner.....
Butch Davis (N.C.) or Tommy Bowden (Clemson). Some are willing to fall on their sword over the Bowden claim...
Interesting though.....Butch Davis has an unconfirmed meeting with his N.C. players at 15:00hrs today.....?
My money would be on Butch...

He just signed an extension with UNC.
What about the first name that cropped up in association with this job...Mike Leach?
That said, yes, please hire Tommy Bowden. Or better yet, Terry Bowden. :floor:

Leach will be going to UCLA in all probability....
The UA planes were in Charlotte N.C. yesterday. Close enough for Tommy Bowden, Butch Davis AND Jim Grobe.
Davis did sign a one year extension, however did not get several items in the contract that he wanted and his buyout isn't bad....
