Chizik Fired

[19210]

So does this hurt the value of all those Chizik coins and Chiz Rags? :smile: Ha ha

lololololol I know what you are referring to!

:biggrin:

 

[aauummm]

Ok, not to derail this, but what did happen to the likes?

I don't think my:arghh: emoticons are working either.

edit: whoops, I guess they do work.

Good to see Auburn was "firmly entrenched" with the Chiz.

Dear Gene Chiz,

Really so sorry that they fired you. We were so proud that you won five games for us when we were down. We will always respect you because you are the real deal.

All In Forever,
Iowa State Daily

So I don't like Cheese Dip more than any other self-respecting Cyclone fan, but objectively speaking does anybody else see this as being way too quick of a trigger from Auburn? I know they were awful this last season, but Cheese Dip did win a national title only two years ago, even if it was with a genius OC and a once in a lifetime talent in Cam Newton.

Now understand I don't feel bad for the guy, but I don't know if Auburn is making the right decision here.

Nope just to expand I believe it was the first time ever that Auburn went winless in the conference.

I understand that he didn't have a lot of success on the football field, but how were the Auburn Tigers on the Dodgeball court?

Plus one of the worst losses ever to Alabama and one of their worst losses period to TAMU.

Not too quick a trigger. Plus i'm sure they know exactly how they got that title (bought and paid for players, plus a stellar OC), so they don't give much credit to chizik for it

Chizik at auburn was great, lost games, we got to make fun of him, etc. now we might actually have to listen to him if he lands a job at ESPN or worse yet a color guy for broadcast. Please no, this would be worse. Auburn is to blame here, they got what they paid for and then what they deserved. Icing on the cake would be some sanctions and vacations.

I'm hoping if he is in broadcasting he gets CBS Sports to cover third tier games for SEC. I hate to see the man out of work.

I haven't heard a lot about their recruiting either, so I would imagine that had something to do with the quick trigger.

Nah. Now they are even more collectable...

I'm thinking violations, sanctions, and vacations. By firing him now the Auburn people get to blame Chiz and still celebrate those accomplishments.

National Championship buys you some bad seasons, but not historically bad seasons plus NCAA investigations. He wins a couple of SEC games and makes a minor bowl he's probably back, but 0-8 in SEC for Auburn is a first that can't be overlooked.
