I was surprised when he was fired.

He was not fired, his son is currently a walkon on the Auburn Team and Tubs was at the Iron Bowl pulling for Auburn. There are a lot of personal reasons why Tubs needed a year off. I know we paid him, but he could have stayed. Think about it, we hired Mr. 5-19 to take his place.

What was the story behind him leaving back in 2008? I've heard several different versions but never from an Auburn fan.

Interesting. I've never heard anything other than him being fired. Maybe I did read somewhere that he perhaps "resigned". Some of his own family say he was fired.
