I'm not sure this is going anywhere. Why in the hell would someone trust a full time football coach for investment advice? Sounds like these people got scammed, but I can't see where Tuberville would have any liability. We'll see.

My knee-jerk reaction is that Tommy Tuberville is not smart enough to do what he's accused of. Them I remember he was smart enough to whip our butts at home a few months ago.

What a revolting development.

So... I guess Texas Tech decided they didn't want to pay another football coach his bonus? I mean, I assume that's why this became public knowledge now, because that's what Tech does when they want to cheapskate a coach :mad:

Word from my Tech friend is that he was the face of the company and that he lost a ton of money himself.

That's how the article made it sound. Still, if you're looking to invest a large part of your savings, why would you trust 'the word' of a full time college football coach (I know he wasn't coaching at the time)?

Tuberville is climbing the most wanted list after his team depantsed the Venables defense for maybe the worst loss in 8 years of OU football.

Life is not going well for him. There have been rumors (probably unsubstantiated) that he doesn't want to be at Tech, his wife kills someone while driving, he's been named in a lawsuit.

it's taken him this long to realize that Lubbock is a dead end job? The man is dumber than I previously thought.

She wasn't charged with anything even though she did run a red light. I'd be in jail if I did that!!
