    I'm hearing this all over. One source is VERY close to the AU program. This might turn the Pig/LSU game into a true rivalry. What I'm hearing is that Tubby never liked AU to begin with. Not the school, but the area. Keep in mind that he is from Fayetteville. Anyone else hearing this?

    I would LOVE that. I HATE Auburn and would love to see both arkansas gain in prestige and Auburn fall back into mediocrity.

    If ever there were a football marriage made in heaven. Arkansas is in heat and Tubby wants to get outta the house.

    Tubby and the snuffies. Good.

    I doubt it. If Tuberville leaves, it won't be for another SEC school.

    Can I get some of what you are smoking?

    Seriously lets think about this.

    1. Nutt isn't even leaving.

    2. You realize Tuberville has a 7 million dollar buy-out should he leave after this year right? No way Arkansas is willing to pay that, plus the remainder of Nutt's salary, PLUS Tubervilles new contract with them. Thats 3 things they have to pay.

    3. Tuberville went 13-0, replaced an entire offensive backfield, and still only lost 1 SEC game the next year. He has built a ton of depth at Auburn to compete every year, you think he wants to start all over again?

    4. Tuberville isn't even from Fayetteville. He is from Camden, which is about 5 hours from fayetteville.

    I have heard this as well. :) Some sources within the athletic admin offices at Arky say that Nutt will not be successful in trying to pull a rabbit out of his hat late in the year -- he is gone from there. :) Word is that there is an out in Tubby's contract that would allow Arky to avoid the huge buyout. :)
