When last we heard from former Texas Tech football coach Tommy Tuberville, now an ESPN college football analyst, he was telling an Alabama radio show hosted by Rick and Bubba in May that his move from Auburn to Texas Tech was "like going to Siberia."
And then without prompting, he quickly added, "Somebody asked me, 'So what's Lubbock look like?' It looked like Iraq."
That got laughs from Rick and Bubba. The good people of West Texas and the Tech community, however, didn't think it all that funny.
Of course, Tuberville had never been much of a fan favorite in Lubbock after replacing the popular but fired Mike Leach in 2010.
