Finebaum calls Auburn AD "a buffoon"

Paul Finebaum is clearly enjoying the hell out of the Auburn coaching search. Always a man known for working in subtle nuance and hidden word play, Finebaum dropped the following on his readers yesterday:
If Jay Jacobs hasn't secured the No. 1 spot among the biggest buffoons in college athletics, it's only because a new poll hasn't been taken since the announcement of Tuberville's firing.

The first week of the search looks like the early auditions for "American Idol" with candidates running through the door in droves, falling over themselves and playing the fool.
Not sure if you caught all that sub-text, but he doesn't seem impressed. The Auburn search rolls on with no apparent strategy or end game in mind. The single most qualified, available coach in America is the one they just fired. Tough to search around that problem.
