Why There's No Way Chizik Loses His Job

[Shug Dye]

I thought Wiregrass Tigers liked it rough?

[Token]

I think he got his feelings hurt...

Nothing he didn't bring on himself.

Only one that I can think of. Once you get out of Barbour County, its all down hill.

If things start going bad this weekend how long before the boo birds come out?

And then do they put the creed on the jumbotron?

What's going to be worse is the derisive cheer when (if) Frazier completes his first pass.  It will be mockery.

To us or them?

Skreetz, I got them on this as far as whats going on with the program.  Chiz needs to go.  It's systemic, and it's bad.  No cure.

You can't just say this without giving it up...

Drill press.

[Townhallsavoy]

Drill press.

I actually could pull a "drill press" too, and I think I do know what JR's talking about.  But since I'm not completely certain about it, I'll let him spill it. 

[djsimp]

Well fuck me. Why don't somebody talk already.

[JR4AU]

Former AU player.  Straight from him. 

First part you can take as subjective.  Recruiting rankings be damned, no talent.  Rivals and Scout will raise a players status based on who is recruiting him.  Auburn goes after you hard, 4 star.  Bammer 5 star.  Our coaches don't seem to be able to accurately ID talent.  It's simply not there.  Jake Holland is the best we have if he's on the field.

The 2 most distressing things, and why it can't be fixed because this is the head man's way of doing things.  He's been at practice, and claims he's never seen a softer, less intense practice regimen.  Second, and he gets this straight from coaches he knows on staff.  If AU is recruiting a kid and bammer goes after him hard, AU gives up on him. 

Those are facts from a guy I trust, that's played the game at the highest level, and he's an Auburn guy through and through.       

This is my opinion.  It makes sense that players aren't "developing" if they're not being pushed hard at practice.   It is just Chizik's make up.  The team takes on the personality of the HC and staff.  We're soft, and not progressing.

I find that hard to believe.  We've won a few battles and were in it until the end with some of their biggest recruits (Cyrus K comes to mind)

Other than that, I've heard similar.  That Chizik's in over his head and the way he runs things are very different from Tuberville.  Because of his way of doing things, the players are not as disciplined about football and the program is struggling right now with apathy.

I found it difficult to believe too, but it speaks as to why we are much more nation wide recruiting these days.  This staff feels as if they are wasting time and effort to go after a kid that can really play and is being recruited by bammer.  Loser, defeatist attitude.  That's not my bud's opinion, that's straight from AU coaches mouth to him.  Do we give up on every one?  I don't know, but chances are the ones we win head to head with, it's like the bammers say, they didn't really want him anyway.

I don't buy the recruiting thing either.  Yes, things are different than under Tubs.  I went to practices every year while CTT was there and I might have laid eyes on the man once.  He didn't coach.  Chizik is on the field, in your face and firey. Better style?  Worse? I have no clue.  I just find it funny that so many of these things are never an issue until we lose some games.

Dude the Chizik direct line is ringing.

So, you're basically saying my bud told me a pack of lies?  It's all ok?

Good!

Thats exactly what he is saying damn it.

[AWK]

You guys are bashing JR, but regardless of Skreetz, the only explanation for the shittiness of this team is coaching.... So he can't be that far off in his skreetz.

[JR4AU]

Wow, I was worried for a bit.
