When it comes time for UT to hire its third straight DC away from Auburn it looks this will be the man. Back when AU first hired Gene Chizik he was their second choice. This guy was their first choice.
They didn't mention that Mack was part of the negotiations. Looks like we got our new coach for 2010. Welcome
Rhoads was my choice to come in to take our DC job, if Muschamp would've passed. He had that Pittsburgh defense salty.
If Auburn and Tuberville have any brains at all, they will put an exclusion clause for Texas in his contract (that will either prohibit it or stipulate a huge penalty if he leaves for Austin). They would be flat-out stupid if they didn't guard against it happening a third time.
This is great news. I was wondering who would be our next DC after Muschamp gets a HC job. Now Auburn (our farm team) can get busy training him up so that the transition will be smooth after Muschamp departs.
