Winning the NC didn't buy Chizik any more time, and Malzahn didn't even win it. Of course, it was easy to see Chizik wasn't going to regain control of his situation, but it was still a quick trigger. This year should be the swing year for Malzahn, IMO. If he can't win at least 10, Auburn doesn't need to keep him anymore. 12–2 8–5 7–6 8–5 3–9 7–6 8–5 7–6 With the exception of an extreme first year outlier for both coaches, Malzahn has an almost identical record to Bielema with better recruiting. We all know Auburn wouldn't stand to have Bielema, I don't know why they'd stand to keep Malzahn if he finishes with a similar record again.


Chizik got fired because his team completely gave up on him.

Malzhan has prevented his team from shutting down by running off anyone with malcontent tendencies, coaches included (Craig comes to mind).

Plus his record of competence as a HC was always there in the background giving people concern.

No reasonable person doubts that Gus is capable of being at least a serviceable HC and still has a strong offensive mind, but his decision making seems increasingly bizarre. Hopefully we'll see him cut out the weird shite this season.
