Five names are on Auburn’s list to fill the university’s highest-paying job: football coach.
No. 1 is interim coach Bill Oliver, promoted from defensive coordinator after Terry Bowden resigned Oct. 23 from the $800,000-a-year position.
Oliver has said he would like the job, but nothing more.
Other candidates include coaches Tommy Tuberville of Mississippi and Bobby Wallace of Temple, defensive coordinator Bob Stoops of Florida and former Texas Christian coach Pat Sullivan, the former Auburn quarterback who won the 1971 Heisman Trophy.
