Jacobs wants resolution this week; more meetings await

Auburn athletic director Jay Jacobs finally emerged from his office after an evening meeting with associate athletic director/compliance Bernard Hill and had little to offer in new news about the situation regarding Tommy Tuberville's status.

"Tommy and I met this morning and we'll meet again over the next couple days and we'll let you know how it goes," Jacobs said. "That's really it."

Tuesday was the second day of postseason meetings between the coach and athletic director to discuss the future of the program, and whether it involves Tuberville.

Jacobs said he's like to have a resolution to the situation this week.

"We'll just have to see," he said.

Asked if he thought there was concern that the delay on a decision was hurting the program, Jacobs simply shook his head.

Tuberville, who has coached 10 years at Auburn, is signed through 2013, but his future came into question after a 5-7 season that concluded with a 36-0 loss to Alabama in the Iron Bowl on Saturday. The Tigers failed to make a bowl game for the first time since 1999.

Tuberville currently a $6 million buyout to his contract.
