There is a God: Tuberville to step down

[Bearcat_NTS]

ESPN: Reports say former Auburn HC and current Cincinnati HC Tommy Tuberville is stepping down as HC of the Bearcats.

Great news! Woulda liked to seen this clown actually fired but everyone knows what resigns means.

Says here top two choices are fleck and Neal brown

 

[Bearcat_NTS]

Christmas come early if we some how get Fleck. Hey Tommy, GO TO HELL, GET A JOB.

 

[Bearcat Rob]

A lot have linked fleck with orgeon but doubt that will happen I see orgeon going different direction. Fleck would be a dream but I'm holding out hope if orgeon chooses else where(which I think they will). He currently makes 800000 I'd be interested to see what we'd offer him. Same money ass tubby made?

 

[Bearcat Rob]

Most practical options on uc's short list are probably
-fleck
-Neil brown
-brohm
-Coombs(not sure how interested we are in him but his name will be mentioned)
-maybe jason candle? Toledo had a strong season
**he wouldn't stay to long but I really hope we look into Lincoln Riley he is going to be the next big time coach in a few years. Very young and energetic right now. Would be a dream hire

Agreed, but Riley played at Texas Tech and coached there too. I think he would be the home run hire for Houston.

For us, I think Fleck is the home run. Then followed by Brohm, Neil Brown and Jason Candle.

More excellent news!!

Since obviously people will be asking, for various reasons we feel confident Kerry Coombs will not be a top candidate in the search

Ya houston was my concern with Riley due to location. But having gone thru the whole Herman situation I think the are looking for more of the tubs rout in a guy who isn't looking to leave after a few good seasons. But I agree fleck would be great and prom would also be very good. Too many good options can't mess this up

Dude, that is toxic! Really?

 

[jacobkdoyle]

If we got Fleck I would faint.

 

[jacobkdoyle]

Satterfield from App State would be a decent candidate too.

Tommy as a coach was toxic. This is the best thing that has happened to UC football since they hired him.

Guy that covers Louisville...

Can confirm that Cincinnati has already reached out to Western Kentucky coach Jeff Brohm.

 

[jacobkdoyle]

This is so exciting. This is the best possible year to be hiring.

I believe he's meeting with Bayler today and Purdue has high interest as well.
Bayler Purdue and orgeon (just fleck for them) are the obstacles that could possible prevent us from hiring one of these two good coaches

Heard he's still getting his buyout, can anyone confirm that? Wouldn't surprise me and only confirms to me he stepped down to save face of being fired.

Read about the deal he negotiated with Auburn after resigning. The guy is all about the $$$$.

Yeah, but let's be honest, that's the American way...I'm not going to lie, I'd take an extra $1.5 mill on my way out the door. 99.9 percent of us would.

If we would have pulled the trigger last year we could have for sure gotten Fleck (or Brohm), IMO...

Dude, that is toxic! Really?

Tuberville stole over $10 million from this program. Who can blame the fans for the vitriol?
