Happy for you guys and glad you didn't take Narduzzi away from us

Not yet at least! :).

1) Anyone know his contract buyout from TT?
2) I wonder if Whit contacted the TT AD before talking to CTT - I wonder because of how complementary he was about the Tenn AD doing it

It sounded as though he left him two voice messages. He stated he would only take one day and it would remain quiet. If he couldn't reach a deal in one day he would move on.

One of the bigger things I worried about losing Butch was getting a replacement who was on par with his recruiting abilities. I think Tuberville definitely fits the bill.
He was an assistant at the U during their major run (won three national titles while he was on staff from 1986-1993).
His first job after ascending to D-Coordinator at Miami was at Ole Miss. Wikipedia says they nicknamed him the riverboat gambler for his aggressive play-calling particularly on 4th down.
I also found this anecdoate funny given the coaching carousel this time of year...
While at Mississippi Tuberville made the statement, "They’ll have to carry me out of here in a pine box," in reference to not leaving to coach at another school. Two days after he made that statement, it was announced that he was departing for Auburn.
While at Auburn he took them to 8 straight bowls including 5 New Years Eve bowls.
In 2005, despite losing the entire starting backfield from the unbeaten 2004 team to the first round of the NFL Draft, Tuberville led Auburn to a 9–3 record, finishing the regular season with victories over rivals Georgia and Alabama.
Under Tuberville, Auburn had a winning record against its biggest rival, Alabama (7–3), and was tied with its next two most significant rivals, Georgia (5–5) and LSU (5–5). He led Auburn to 6 straight victories over in-state rival Alabama, the longest win streak in this rivalry since 1982, which was the year Auburn broke Alabama's 9-year winning streak.
He won 9 of 15 games against top 10 opponents while at Auburn.
5-2 versus top 5 teams.
coached 19 players who were selected in the NFL draft, including four first round picks in 2004

Why in the world did he leave AU? The leaving quote gives me pause buying in too much.

And they won a NC a year or two later with his players.

I believe CTT's buyout of remaining years on Texas Tech contract was $900,000.

Is UC (well, CTT) on the hook for this buyout since technically he resigned his position before accepting the UC job? Even if UC needs to pay it, we come out ahead on the coaches' buyouts this time, but it would be nice if that doesn't have to be paid.

My bet is Tuesday after the BOT meeting.
Dr. Ono has been tweeting over the last couple of weeks in way that indicates that there will be some facilities announcement soon. Whit also mentioned that Nippert plans would be forthcoming soon either in the good-bye Butch or welcome CTT press conference (can't remember which).
They have both made it sound like sooner rather than later.
GO BEARCATS!! FIGHT!!! FIGHT!!!! FIGHT!!!!!

It struck me when TT said that he was looking to assemble his staff from various places, including those in search of National Championships.
