re: What does Gene Chizik have to do to prove he is a great head coach?

He is a good coach...no doubt about it...took a program in turmoil to an 8-5 season w/ a january bowl win followed by one of them there national championships...haters will no doubt hate like the little bitches they are..but he has assembled one hellof a staff that will be there unchanged for the 3rd consecutive year...he had two shite years at iowa state because he had nothing to work with...his recruited players had great seasons by their standards last year and especially this year....people like to take away his accomplishments by saying "if it weren't for gus...or cam....or fairly...or money" but that strawman is patheti b/c you can say the same about any coach..I also fully suspect when AU loses a few this year some will say"see he ain't aheeeit"....but he will again prove people wrong in 2012 and 2013...which people will again name random players and staff coaches as reasons for his success, ignoring their own situations...minus the receding gum lines and pleather jackets, he is and will continue to be a successful coach.....and I was one of the ones that was pissed about his hiring...but crow has never tasted sweeter....
