I would pay to go to a Tuberville rally with that slogan on a huge banner hanging behind Tommy as he spoke.

I have to agree that he's a great guy to meet and greet; very approachable and an entertaining speaker who had been a rock star coach. I also agree that his tenure here was one of the great disappointments in the past two decades of success on the gridiron.

With that said, he'd probably do fine in the U.S. Senate where about as much gets done each year as he accomplished with local high school recruiting.

In retrospect, it's always easy to second guess things that do not work out for the best. When he was hired, the move was pretty much praised by everyone involved including the national guys. We were coming off 3 coaches in what 8 or 9 years and the move to a veteran guys seemed like a valid direction. Lyle did not leave the cupboard stocked with talent, and we were very low on depth particularly up front on both sides of the ball. I think if you look at last year's squad, quite a few of TT's recruits ended up being very solid guys for us. with the exception of the one big position Qb. Gk had his issues, and Hayden at the beginning looked like the pick of the century after the big game against Memphis. I remember even Usa Today writing up how Uc stole this kid from under Bama's nose. Lol in retrospect. The thing that really sealed his fate was Gran and Clinkscale taking the Sec money at Uk and leaving Uc high and dry at both coordinators. That hurt big time on a number of fronts. That said, coaching is more than ever a young man's game, both at division 1 snf in the NFL. At Uc's new level chasing P5 football the path is clearly to try and stake it's claim to all local guys and get our share. Bohn bought into this, and hit a home run with Fickell given his pedigree. It is interesting though that Fick seems to be broadening out his net which is good to see. He's a player's coach, and i think if he can win consistently he'll get some non local guys which surprise some. Don't judge a guy for one encounter with a fan in a frustrating time. The AD has to lay the foundation for where and how the program is going to proceed. Babcock gambled and quite frankly didn't do a lot of leg work in choosing Lyle's replacement. I'm not even certain he talked to anyone else about the job. He's struggling right now with the Fuentes pick even though it was a no brainer.

Quote:Former Auburn University football coach Tommy Tuberville is joining the Republican race to win back the Alabama Senate seat from Democrat Doug Jones in 2020.

Tuberville announced his candidacy Saturday on Twitter and in a statement.

“After more than a year of listening to Alabama’s citizens, I have heard your concerns and hopes for a better tomorrow," he said. "I am humbled to announce the next step — I will be a Republican candidate for US Senate. I invite you to join my team."

Tuberville, a native of Arkansas, kicked around the idea of running for governor of Alabama in 2018, but decided to stay out of politics at that time. He has previously described his life in college football as "being in politics for the last 40 years."

In 21 seasons as a head coach, Tuberville won 159 games with Mississippi, Auburn, Texas Tech and Cincinnati. He stepped down at Cincinnati after the Bearcats went 4-8 in 2016.

PAID FOR BY TOMMY FOR SENATE, INC.

I don't think he has a good work ethic to be a G.O.P. rep.

Let's see, what senate committee would be a good fit for him?

Running for Senate involves months of very long, hard days. I’m not sure he’s cut out for that.
