Here's the LINK. Currently he's addressing the roomstogo article but he's going to be discussing ESPN's Spice and Cam Newton 2010 after the break

Doing a good job so far of laying out the facts
quote:

@JHokanson Chizik: "This story of two young men has turned into indictment of whole football team with no facts -- it's not right."

@JHokanson Gene Chizik calls the Darvin Adams allegation, a "bogus allegation". Said he was proud of Darvin for speaking out.

Brandon Marcello @bmarcello Gene Chizik on grade-changing allegation: "Really and truly that accusation is ludricrous."

Mike Szvetitz @Szvetitz Gene Chizik on 2010 Cam Newton allegations ... "I want to remind everyone, it started as a Mississippi State problem" ... Wow.

Bruce Feldman @BFeldmanCBS Gene Chizik to WJOX: "The NCAA spent the better part of 2 years at #Auburn and they found nothing."

@JHokanson Gene Chizik is borderline, no, he's angry on the radio reliving the Cam Newton investigation. "They found nothing", he says of the NCAA.

@JHokanson Gene Chizik talking about that 2010 national title team: "What are the facts? The NCAA found no major violations."

@JHokanson Gene Chizik: "I'm 100 percent confident we did it right."

Aaron Brenner @wareagleextra Remember November, when Gene Chizik looked/sounded drained? His batteries are, uh, recharged in this WJOX interview. Fury in his voice.

Mike Szvetitz @Szvetitz Gene Chizik says it's going to "be hard" watching Auburn football next year. Says it's because he still loves Auburn and the athletes

John Zenor? @jzenor Gene Chizik gets feisty on @wjox, calls academic fraud allegations "ludicrous". Can I say he went all Saban on them and stay in the state?

They'll have the Podcast up at 3:00 on the WJOX website

I always like Gene Chizik as a person but today really showed the type of character he has. You could tell by the tone of his voice that he genuinely cared and still does care about Auburn football

I am glad he spoke up today. Will not get a lot of run nationally, but Auburn has decided to fight back.

Chizik threw the Fab 4 under the fricking bus. I can at least respect that. They don't deserve to be sugar coated. This honestly sounds like a different human being. Sure he sounds like a mature white man on the radio, but he doesn't bullshite with monotony like we heard for 4 fricking years.

He's got nothing to lose and nobody holding him back. Chizik can finally let loose and attack

I actually thought he went out of his way to NOT do this. He just stated his case emphatically which happened to be completely contrary to everything they said!

I listened to the podcast part of it is missing where he starts to talk about Darvin's statement today.

I agree and thinks he deserves credit for this also. He went so far as to say he was hurt by McNiel's claims of racisim.

Do you have the WJOX app? I just checked and the Podcast for the interview is on there

Also, Chiz is doing an interview with the Auburn beat writers right now. Ill update OP if he says anything different from earlier *Based upon the tweets, Chizik is going full Dirt off Ya shoulder, "Middle finger to the law gripping his . . . "

Apparently, Auburn is going "All In" defending themselves

I really love Chizik. He just couldn't run a successful program long term.

In Chiz terms he threw them under the bus. He didn't cast them out like you or I would have done, but he definitely didn't sugar coat the Fab 4. He said he warned them beforehand of making careless decisions that would cast a bad image of the entire program.

He was a busy man. Hopefully he got paid for some of the interviews so we can deduct that from his monthly AU check

But seriously, it's nice to hear him talk unrestrained. He's a good guy for sure
