After 10 seasons as the Auburn Tigers head football coach, Tommy Tuberville has resigned.

“The last 10 years have been a great time in my life, both professionally and personally,” Tuberville said in a statement.

“It’s been a great place to coach and live, and we’ve had a lot of success along the way. I’m going to remain in Auburn and help the Auburn family however I can. I’m very appreciative of the coaches, players, staff and Auburn fans over the last decade.”

Tuberville had a great 85-40 overall record and in those 10 seasons with the team he had a undefeated season in 2003 and contended for many SEC championships.

Tuberville is a great coach and Auburn should have recognized that. He’s done an awful lot for the school and even though he had a bad 5-7 record this season, hey shouldn’t have let him go.
