College coaches on the hot seat
Which coaches will be packing their bags after this season?

Texas A&M is talking about buying out Franchione's contract, sources have told ESPN college football analyst Andre Ware.
...

Franchione has been in hot water with the university for a newsletter he was sending out to donors willing to pay $1,200 for inside information. In mid-October, Texas A&M officials admonished Franchione for his secretive, for-pay newsletter and said the embarrassing episode would be a factor in deciding whether he returns next season.

...

"The Aggies are embarrassed right now," athletic director Bob Byrne said in October. "This has been a very unfortunate incident we do not want to experience again."

...

Texas A&M is reportedly researching whether Franchione violated his contract with the income he received from the newsletter. If he is found in violation of the contract, the Aggies may not have to pay the coach anything upon firing him.

...

Ware reported that Texas A&M wants to talk to Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville for a potential vacancy. He reported that the school is working with Chuck Neinas, who runs a consulting firm specializing in hiring coaches.

Tubs is one of the top paid coaches in the NCAA. A&M would have to get up off some money...which they do have.

However, Bobby Lowder won't pay any more to try to keep Tubs.

We (Auburn) will get stuck into the "Alabama Syndrome", say that we're focusing upon "academics rather than athletics", and refuse to pay the next coach as much as Tubs...which is what happened to every Alabama coach between Stallings and Saban. We'll become worse than Ole Miss...sorry basreb65...before we get another good coach.

Oh well, I'm not going to say that it won't happen, but I don't think that it is a high possibility that the A&M boosters will fork out enough money to get rid of Fran and get Tubs at the same time. In a sluggish economy? They would have to have a LOT of throw away money.

Coach Tubbs was on the A & M staff as the Defensive Co-ordinator back in like maybe '94, not long after his defensive coaching stop with the Miami Hurricanes.

I glad to know that blowing a 10-point 3rd quarter lead over LSU on Saturday had nothing to do with a hapless coach.

There is absolutely NO shame in Bama's performance against LSU! Bama was unranked at the beginning of the season. If this had been last year, LSU would have won easily. Even at the beginning of this season, I never expected the Bama/LSU game to be competetive. If Nick Saban can coach Mike Shula's players this well, just wait a couple of years until he is coaching his own recruits.

Kagan, you know I love you like a brother. But rammajamma is right. Even if Auburn wins this year, it won't be as easy as in the past 5 years. Nick Saban is THE most incredible coach in college football. He WILL be the first coach to win a national championship from two schools. Alabama fans who have always honored the names of the Bear and Gene Stallings now have another hero in our glorious, brilliant coach!

(Gosh, I got a little carried away, didn't I? Nick Saban is the greatest thing since Bear Bryant. We love our coach.)
GOD BLESS AMERICA AND ROLL TIDE ROLL!
