Seems Michigan told LaRue no thanks. Still trying to get Foster on campus but even if he did visit its probably the longest longshot in the history of longshots.

Good chance former Clemson, Alabama & CSU coach Billy Napier joins the FSU staff. Likely as a TE coach.

Notre Dame still ranked ahead of Alabama in one BCS-endorsed computer poll

TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- Though it absolutely dominated Notre Dame from start to finish in the BCS National Championship, Alabama wasn't the unanimous No. 1 team among the six computer polls used by the BCS.
The Colley Matrix moved Alabama from No. 4 to No. 2 after Monday's 42-14 rout, but it kept Notre Dame at No. 1. Alabama was No. 1 in the other five computer polls.
"It just underscores the flaw of rating teams without using margin of victory," ESPN's Brad Edwards, a BCS expert, wrote on his Twitter account. "One more year of this system, folks."
The Colley Matrix never ranked Alabama No. 1 throughout the season. It moved Alabama to No. 2 after its victory over Mississippi State on Oct. 27 and then dropped it to No. 4 after the Nov. 10 loss to Texas A&M. It bumped the Crimson Tide down to No. 5 after its 49-0 win over Auburn before moving it one spot up after the SEC Championship.
The Colley Matrix's final input for the BCS standings ranked Notre Dame at No. 1 and put Florida and Stanford ahead of Alabama.
A disclaimer: There are no official BCS standings after all of the bowl games are played. They are used to simply rank teams for bowl placement. A team's average ranking among the six polls (excluding the worst) accounts for one-third of the BCS formula. The other two-thirds come from the coaches' poll and Harris Interactive poll.
According to the Colley Matrix's website, the complex formula it uses to determine the rankings focuses more on "deservedness" than it does "predictiveness."
"The method is based on very simple statistical principles, and uses only wins and losses as input—margin of victory does not matter," according to an explanation of the poll's methods on the website. "The scheme adjusts effectively for strength of schedule, in a way that is free of bias toward conference, tradition, or region. Comparison of rankings produced by this method to those produced by the press polls shows that despite its simplicity, the scheme produces common sense results."
That common sense result probably makes little sense to fans of Alabama or even Notre Dame after Monday's game.

[h1]Ex-football recruit on Tommy Tuberville: ‘It’s a bad situation’[/h1]
4:19 pm January 10, 2013, by Michael Carvell
Pebblebrook High School defensive back Demetrius Monday de-committed from Cincinnati on Thursday after never hearing from new coach Tommy Tuberville.
“I think it’s messed up,” his father, Bryant Monday, told the AJC. “You wait until a few weeks before signing day to say something? They could have told us a month ago.
“Now we’re left with less than a month until signing day to figure something out. He had other scholarship offers but he hasn’t talked to other coaches in six months … since he committed to Cincinnati on July 25.
“It’s really disappointing.”
The 5-foot-10, 180-pound Monday said he committed to Cincinnati over Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Ball State, Ohio and Georgia State, among others, last summer. Tuberville was hired by Cincinnati on Dec. 8. After not hearing from the new staff, the elder Monday finally called up the football offices this week.
“They told us to ‘look other places,’” Monday said. “I’m in Los Angeles on vacation, and I just got the bad news.
“The thing is, we’ve talked to some other kids committed to Cincinnati. They say the same thing, that they haven’t heard from the staff. Basically (Tuberville) isn’t calling anybody, he’s trying to get the kids to de-commit on their own.
“It’s a bad situation.”

Within the last couple of months, new Cincinnati coach Tommy Tuberville has been accused of going postal on an assistant coach, leaving Texas Tech recruits in the middle of dinner to accept a new job, and running off longtime recruits at Cincy (AP)

“It’s a bad situation.”
RELATED: Jaleel Canty, a defensive back from Lansing, Mich., and friend of the Monday family, contacted the AJC on Thursday night to say that he also had de-committed from Cincinnati that day under similar circumstances. Canty committed to Cincinnati last July, hadn’t heard from the new staff, and finally called the football office on Thursday. He got the same bad news from an assistant. “They said they were bringing in their own guys, so all the guys that are committed are out luck.” Canty requested a conversation with Tuberville. “They said he was busy, trying to get his staff together.” What was Canty’s reaction to being cut loose? “It’s messed up. I’ve been committed to Cincinnati since July, and I kind of cut off communication with other schools. I don’t understand why (Tuberville) couldn’t tell us a month ago. We’re less than a month away from signing day now. And I don’t understand why we had to call them. Why couldn’t they call us and tell us a month ago? It’s really disappointing.”
Would going after Army be an option for them?

I guess there will be plenty of Tubs' articles written because he's not going to keep the majority of the class that CBJ had previously. He reached out to the few that he did plan on trying to keep when he first was hired.
