Was tubberville ever a serious candidate?

One rumor about Tubs that has made the rounds over the years is that either during the Miles search or the Miles to Michigan part 1 deal (I can't remember which one) Tubs contacted LSU - as a way to get back at Auburn for the Petrino interview in 03. After initially being receptive to the idea, someone at LSU came to their senses and made it known to Tubs that he will never, under any circumstances, be the head coach at LSU.
