Tubby is a great coach, don't get me wrong, but he's at the point in his career where you have to wonder how much longer he'll be coaching.


He is 4 months older than Nick Saban. Did Sabans age make Bama fans hesitant about hiring him? Like Saban had, he also has a NC under his belt and is a proven winner. I'm just wondering if you thought this through before you posted it.

These gumps are foaming at the mouth cause they know Tubby Smith is a good b-ball coach.. Then you got Finescum making an article about Grant seems unhappy at Bama and is waiting on another job..

Yes, both Tubby and Nick are 58.

According to the President of UMinn, they are in the middle of a salary freeze and can't give Tubby a raise, also they are in dire need of a new practice facility, but do not have the funds or any chance of getting the funds in the near future.

I also read this morning that Oregon may also be interested in Tubby. It would be hard to compete with all that Nike money.

Looks like we are watching the final game of the Tubby Smith era at Minnesota.

Great hire if he actually does come to Auburn.
