Tommy Bowden won't be leaving Clemson for the Arkansas job, according to multiple newspaper reports this morning.
Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville had also been in the mix. It's unclear where the Razorbacks will turn now, although Michigan assistant Ron English and Tulsa assistant Gus Malzahn have interviewed for the job.
Interestingly, Bowden makes "only" $1.3 million at Clemson. Clemson has offered to bump that up to $1.6 million. Tuberville made $2.6 million this year at Auburn. He has a contract extension on the table that would increase his average annual compensation to $3.3 million through the 2013 season.
Tuberville and Bowden, who will meet in the Chick-Fil-A Bowl Dec. 31, were hired at the same time by their respective schools.
Tuberville is 79-33 overall and 50-24 in the SEC during his nine years at Auburn. Bowden is 69-41 overall and 42-30 in the ACC at Clemson.
