My Take
Tommy Tuberville intrigues me as a man who climbed two entirely separate mountains. From small-town Camden, Arkansas, he first conquered football, coaching Auburn for a decade and sweeping the 2004 Coach of the Year honors. Then, unsatisfied, he reinvented himself as a United States senator from Alabama. Whatever one thinks of his politics, I find it hard to dislike that kind of restless ambition, the belief that the leadership instincts honed on a sideline could translate to a different arena entirely. He is, in my reading, a methodical operator who refused to be defined by a single title or career.
