A member of the Auburn University student body is putting together a protest next week to protest the resignation of Tommy Tuberville.

In their Facebook invite, the protestor says:
It is well known by many of those in the Auburn family that Jay Jacobs is naught but a tool of those on the Board of Trustees, including Lowder. Jacobs does whatever he is instructed to do, which in this case meant getting rid of Tuberville. If you actually believe the lies that Jacobs has spoken, the you are sadly mistaken. Tuberville loves Auburn and he along with his staff have done many great things for our great university, none to deserve the fate that they have received. If you feel the same way as we do, please support us in our quest to send a message to President Gogue. War Eagle and God Bless Tuberville and his staff in their new job searches.

The protest will start on the concourse between Haley and the Student Center, walking to Presdient Gogue's from 12 to 3 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 9.

Check back next week for photos and video of the protest.

Jay Jacobs is a fool for running off T. Tuberville. As for the Chizik hire he should resign. Aubie was more qualified than Gene. No offense Aubie.
