Tuberville was never really happy at Tech; never really felt a fit w the culture or fully embraced by fan base that adored previous coach[/background][/font][/color]

Rumor going around that Petrino will be OC.

Man, that would be really tough for me to swallow. Petrino is one of the biggest scumbags in coaching over the last few decades.

None of that had anything to do with Tubs.

Look at the defensive stats for his impact.

Texas Tech was one of the nation's most improved defenses in 2012, ranking No. 22 in pass defense and surrendering less than 200 yards passing per game (195.8). That defense held than No. 5/4 West Virginia, one of the nation's most prolific offenses, to its lowest point total of the 2012 season in a 59-14 Red Raiders win.

Tuberville assembled the top two recruiting classes in Texas Tech history that placed the Red Raiders in the national Top 25 in both 2011 and 2012.

In his first season at Tech, Tuberville led the Red Raiders to an 8-5 record and became the first coach in school history to win a bowl game in his first season.

Hella spin there. Tubs sucks, I watched every game he coached for us.

Thank you Cincy, thank you! Maybe now Kliff Kingsbury can come home and restore the Air Raid.

What he did here is very shitty and I don't like it. I think this crap has to stop.



[b] [b][size=6]Tommy Tuberville reportedly ditches recruits[/size][/b][/b]

[b] [b][size=6]in the middle of dinner to take Cincinnati job[/size][/b][/b]


Tommy Tuberville's sudden departure from Texas Tech to Cincinnati surprised just about everyone, but it must have [i]really[/i] surprised the Texas Tech recruits that were out to dinner with the coach when Tuberville simply left.
At least that's the story told by a recruit [url="http://texastech.247sports.com/Article/Tommy-Tuberville-left-visiting-recruits-at-the-dinner-table-106322"]to TexasTech.247sports.com[/url].
Devonte Danzey, an offensive lineman from Hutchinson (Kansas) Community College, said he and at least two other recruits were out with a large group of Red Raiders coaches including Tuberville at dinner on his official visit.
[b][[url="http://bit.ly/YZLJ8F"]Video analysis: Can Western Kentucky trust Bobby Petrino?[/url]][/b]
Danzey said he asked the coaches how long they expected to be at Texas Tech, and Tuberville kind of danced around the question. That didn't seem too odd to Danzey, but it got weird when the coach was suddenly gone from the restaurant.

"The waitress brought our food out, and we thought [Tuberville] went to the bathroom, but he never came back to dinner," Danzey told the website. "Then next thing I know, the next day, he made an announcement that he's going to Cincinnati."
A Texas Tech spokesman confirmed to the site that the coaches took the players to dinner that night, but he had not heard of any incident there.
Danzey said that when the recruits showed up the next day for their tour of the campus, Tuberville wasn't there, and offensive line coach Chris Thomsen -- Texas Tech's new interim coach -- told the group Tuberville had taken the job at Cincinnati.
There's always some weird happenings during the coaching carousel season, but if this one is true, it's one of the most stupefying ones we've heard.

[b]Tuberville Names Eddie Gran Offensive Coordinator[/b]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]CINCINNATI – Former University of Cincinnati assistant coach Eddie Gran will return to Clifton as the Bearcats offensive coordinator, head coach Tommy Tuberville announced Thursday.[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]He served as UC’s wide receivers coach from 1992-93.[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]Gran is wrapping up his 26th season of collegiate coaching and his third season at Florida State, where he serves as associate head coach, tutoring the running backs and coordinating special teams.[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]In 2012, Gran’s coaching and position group responsibilities helped lead the Seminoles to their first ACC Championship since 2005, first 11-win season since 2000 and ninth Orange Bowl appearance. Gran will coach the Seminoles in the Orange Bowl against Northern Illinois before joining the Bearcats.[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]“I’m pleased and excited Eddie has agreed to join us here in Cincinnati,” Tuberville said. “We have a lot of history together and have won a lot of football games at Auburn and Mississippi. He’s has proven himself to be a great coach and outstanding recruiter. He knows this area well from his previous coaching stop here so it was a natural fit.”[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]Gran's 26 seasons in the college ranks includes stops from coast-to-coast. It began at his alma mater Cal Lutheran, where he played four seasons as a wide receiver. He spent 15 seasons as a running backs coach and special teams coordinator in the SEC, including 10 years at Auburn, followed by a stop at Tennessee before coming to Florida State in 2010.[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]He has also established himself as one of the nation's top recruiters. He has spent the better part of two decades recruiting Miami and greater South Florida as his primary territory. He helped the Seminoles attract the nation's No. 1 recruiting class in 2011 and was named one of ESPN.com's Top 25 Recruiters of the Year in 2011.[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]This past season was one of the best ever for Gran’s special teams’ pupils. FSU kicker Dustin Hopkins set the NCAA career record for scoring by a kicker (459 points) and was a finalist the Lou Groza Award for the second-straight year in addition to numerous All-America honors and First Team All-ACC accolades.[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]The Noles’ punt return and kickoff return units were arguably the most dynamic in the country, as each ranked second in the ACC and No. 7 and No. 17 in nation, respectively. Rashad Greene scored two touchdowns on punt returns and ranked second in the country with a 15.35 punt return average, while Tyler Hunter also had a punt return score. On kickoff returns, Lamarcus Joyner and Karlos Wiliams combined to average 24.6 yards per return.[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]Under Gran’s direction, FSU’s stable of running backs also had one of the most prolific seasons in the country and in school history, averaging 203 rushing yards per game and tallying 2,639 yards and an FSU-record 37 touchdowns on the ground in 2012.[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]The Seminoles rushed for over 200 yards seven times, including a 385-yard performance versus Wake Forest, and had three different running backs rush for over 500 yards in Chris Thompson (687 yards, five touchdowns), Devonta Freeman (630 yards, eight touchdowns) and James Wilder, Jr. (583 yards, 13 touchdowns). Thompson, who played in eight games before suffering a season-ending knee injury, was named Second Team All-ACC and captured the ACC’s Brian Piccolo Award given to the conference’s “most courageous” player.[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]Gran has a strong record for developing backfield talent. During his 14 seasons as the assistant to Coach Tuberville at Ole Miss and Auburn, he sent eight running backs to the NFL, including former Tigers Carnell Williams, Ronnie Brown, Rudi Johnson, Brandon Jacobs, Heath Evans and Kenny Irons. They were preceded by former Rebels Deuce McCallister and John Avery.[/size][/font][/color]

I am disgusted by the lack of dedication by NCAA coaches these days, this guy alone has jumped ship twice in the night basically to go to a "better gig" and just like the two UC coaches before him, he will leave UC in the exact same fashion.

The lying to your face part is the worst part. to the players face, to the fans, the school..

these guys are all power trip selfish cocksuckers..

i am not impressed or happy about this hire at all..
