Cincinnati fans, Twitter ready to fire Tuberville after latest loss
Cincinnati's forgettable season continued with a 34-7 loss to Memphis on Friday, and it appears Bearcats fans don't want to remember another one with Tommy Tuberville.
The fourth-year coach has taken his fair share of heat this season, and with the Bearcats now 4-7, Twitter and Cincy fans alike seem ready to send the 52-year-old packing:

It looks like Cincinnati's going to have an opening. Attractive job. Last three before Tuberville were Dantonio, Brian Kelly, Butch Jones

Bohn walked right past me so I yelled "fire Tuberville. Fire Tuberville. Do your job."

I wonder who @TTuberville is going to blame tonight? Refs, fans, blogs, media, maybe the sun was in his eyes?

Jeff Brohm for Cincinnati would be a really nice get.

Tuberville's season has included several puzzling losses, a quarterback controversy, and the coach telling a fan to "go to hell, get a job."
He's now 29-21 in nearly four complete seasons with the Bearcats. As a head coach, Tuberville owns a career record of 159-98 across stints with Ole Miss, Auburn, Texas Tech, and Cincinnati.
