PChamp119 96 Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 7 year deal... $2M per year + $200K added on every year... big buyout, and i know 2011 is a long way away and contracts change almost annually, but $3M will be like pocket change to this man by then. Hopefully he'll stay a while - I like him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heres a link... 147253[/snapback] Not specific to Tubbs, and I know it is what the market seems to bear these days, but as much as I love AU football, when the highest paid state employee is a football coach, our values are seriously out of whack.

I can live with that. The bulk of his salary is being paid out of something he (well, the football team) produces...interest in the sport. Not taxpayer dollars.

quietfan 233 Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 B'ham News link: http://www.al.com/auburnfootball/birmingha...21879158951.xml Curious about one statement: Tuberville has a 51-24 record in six seasons at Auburn. Four of his teams have won or shared the SEC West title. Auburn's 29 SEC wins since 2000 is the second highest total in the league.So who's #1 in SEC victories during that time? I'm supposing either Georgia or Tennessee? (LSU has had some good years, but also some not-as-good years in that stretch..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
