Probably sensing that the end was near, Tommy Tuberville has resigned as head football coach at Cincinnati, first reported by CBS Sports Dennis Dodd and then confirmed by the school’s athletic department.
There was an open and growing feeling of frustration with Tuberville among Bearcats fans and alumni after the team finished the 2016 season with a 4-8 record and no shot at a postseason bowl for the first time since 2008.
As these things go, social media was quick to have some very pointed reactions to Tuberville’s resignation. Here are some fans, media members and even Bearcats staff members talking about the resignation on Twitter.
