Gene Chizik's book

[InCytful]

There's no chance I'd read his book, as I have enough fiction titles on the pile in front of it to last quite a while. The real question is: If you were one of the folks who bought the GC commemerative coins, what did you do with them following his departure?

 

[rholtgraves]

The title of the book is so ridiculous, "What it takes to be the best" please, I guess that what it takes to be the best is one of the best offensive coaches in Gus Malzahn and the best player in college football in Newton, because it certainly didn't take Chizik, he was a part of the equation that wasn't necessary.

 

[CycloneErik]

CGC = Coach Gene Chizik??

I'm thinking "Cyclone Gridiron Club." That would fit the context.

 

[LindenCy]

This guy: William Tyndale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia would be rolling in his grave if he knew this book was associated with his name.

 

[CYKOFAN]

What's laughable is that Chiz actually expects people to believe that a 5-19 coach working on a 10 game losing streak would even be interviewed for the Auburn job (unless there was some pre-arranged hanky panky). If God was involved as Gene says, he was more likely looking out for ISU in helping us get rid of this guy.

 

[RING4CY]

This.

If I would have the chance to get my hands on the book without paying for it, I would read it, but only anything regarding to Iowa State. Then again, there will likely not be anything in there that I don't already know. If there is something new, he will have spun it to make it look Iowa State bad and that everything was our fault, so there will not be anything new.

I noticed that when cheeze dip went to AU he did NOT take his O and D Coordinators with him...:twitcy:



Face it boys and girls ISU is never going to have the money to BUY a great football team.....


Or BUY a natl champship like Auburn did for Cheese Dip....:sad:

I won't read it, but it has more to do with me not being interested in these kinds of books in the first place than a distaste for Chizik. Let it go. The dude wasn't and isn't that good of a coach, and he took double the money to move home. We're better off without him too.

I'd drill a hole in this book and take it's innocence.

Hrm...

"Make no mistake, I was humbled by Auburn's decision. And I knew this had to be a God appointment because this whole thing just didn't make sense otherwise. I knew God had to be behind opening this door," Chizik said in the book.

Chizik also expressed dismay at a statement Pollard released once news broke of Chizik's departure questioning the timing of his decision and how the process played out.

"Jamie is a quality athletic director, and I respect him for what he has done at Iowa State. But I wish he had handled my departure differently. It could have, and should have, gone so much better for all involved," Chizik wrote.

At least the last paragraph is positive toward Rhoads.

I'm assuming that you're kidding. If so, I applaud your ability on this one to kid yourself.

 

[bpmcclain]

Ill buy it, but thats only because I need some new toilet paper

Out of pure boredom, I started a "customer discussion" on the Amazon page for the book.

Ha, ha, ha. Check out the section below from the Amazon.com page! If this is a CF prank, superb job, but I think this may be an act of God. Seriously, this is what I just found on that page.

I love to ask him why he didn't write about 30 seconds meeting with players to tell them that he was leaving ?

5-10 minute meeting based on what Austin Arnaud says on the current "Adam Gray Insurance CycloneFanatic.com Podcast." I'm listening to it now. 30+ minutes and still going. Talks frankly about Chizik. AA likes him and still tells it like it is.
