Tuberville to stay 'as long as they want us here'

AUBURN, Ala. -- Tigers coach Tommy Tuberville tried to clear up one issue ahead of Saturday's game against Alabama (No. 25 AP) , saying he planned to stay put "as long as they want us here."
Tuberville said Monday that he has no plans to leave for another job despite reports linking him to a potential job opening at Texas A&M to replace embattled coach Dennis Franchione.
Tuberville said he hasn't met with athletic director Jay Jacobs yet to discuss a contract extension, but plans to do so next week after the Iron Bowl.
"As I told them, I love Auburn. I love Auburn people," Tuberville said. "They've done a lot for me, and I hope we've done a lot for them. We're going to be at Auburn as long as they want us here. We're fired up about that."
He has been asked several times in recent weeks about the reports indicating that he would be targeted by the Aggies if Franchione is fired, but he declined to address them. Tuberville said he meets with Jacobs weekly but they didn't have contract talks during the Tigers' open date last week.

We'll see. Wasn't Tuberville linked to some coaching subterfuge in the past? My memory fails me here.

Tuberville was the head coach at Ole Miss and was making the same statements as he is here. After stating for the last time he was not going to leave he was introduced the next day as Auburn's head coach.
