That would be a most welcomed gift for many a Bearcat fan this holiday season-including me. I know UC isn't swimming in cash but if they try to bring him back next year they may as well not even bother printing tickets because it would be a waste.

Exactly this. They have a pretty new stadium that will be half empty (or worse) if they keep him. If you want an example of how to throw gas on a fire while you're on the hot seat, look up Tommy Tuberville's comments in the last month.
[QUOTE=Pataskala] I read somewhere that Tubey's buyout drops by about a third on Dec 7 -- Pearl Harbor Day. I'd expect something no later than then.
I believe I read similar news. Something like going from $2.5 mil, down to $1.5 mil, or maybe even $1 mil. Either way, it will be money well spent for UC to buy that one out.
In the last 3-4 weeks, I've likened the UC hire of Tuberville to the OU hire of JC. Of course JC had more success on the court while here that Tommy T has had at UC, but I honestly question how well he may have done after the graduation of the class that included Nick Kellogg, John Smith, TJ, Ricardo, etc.
