Few people can match the perspective of Tommy Tuberville when it comes to football life in the Southeastern Conference across the past 25 years. So, when Tuberville joined the “3 Man Front” radio show on WJOX in Birmingham (headlined by former Auburn player and current SEC Network personality Cole Cubelic), his comments about the Tennessee athletics program, particularly football, finally finding the right footing should resonate across Rocky Top and throughout the league.
Tuberville, who led Auburn to an undefeated season in 2004 and also coached at Ole Miss, dismissed any notion of a conflict of interest with Phillip Fulmer and new coach Jeremy Pruitt earning his first head coaching opportunity.
