Well, we knew this was coming. In what will likely be an annual December rite of passage until Bobby Petrino actually does leave, our shark-eyed coach's name is being bandied about in the Auburn rumor mill. Good times.

Yes, the Auburn rumor mill...after about a million good seasons Tommy Tuberville is out after a one ill-timed (in the sense that it coincided with Alabama's rise to power) bad one. Being a coach in the SEC is crazy.

So, to sum up: Tuberville out/rumor mill/wealthy Auburn boosters/denial from Petrino's agent/etc, etc. Wheee!!!

Discuss.
