I met Chiz a couple weeks ago at a restaurant. Guy could not have been more chill and warming. Came and talked for like 20 minutes and took pics. Incredible guy
So - as a fan base how do we remember him? Personally, I’m a fan because 2012 didn’t exist anyway

I love Chiz. Wish it would’ve worked out.

Delivered the first and only national championship since 1957. Chiz will always be good with me.

Ummm, success. Went undefeated, won a title, and brought in the vast majority of the players that had us :13 away from another title.
ETA: A million extra bonus points for the countless rustled jimmies along the way.

To me, Chiz is a great man and a wonderful representative of Auburn University. He brought us a Natty and performed well in bowl games however, he will also be remembered for losing the team in 2012 as well

Chiz brought us a natty. He good with me.

Chiz is still well respected by me. Wish he knew how to run a program after success.

Seems like a really great guy and decent human being.
2010 was peak.
2012: I’m not sure I understand how we could crash so hard. I remember Ladarius Phillips getting shot. Some other off field things. What truly wrecked us? Trying to switch offense? Not having a functional QB? Seemed like we had enough linemen to do something like 6-6. I was at most of the games. After LSU close loss, it looked like we mailed it in I sat through UGA 38-0 which could have been 100-0. I watched Johnny Football run sprints.

As the guy who held together a team to win our National Championship against the worst scrutiny in our history. He did a amazing job in 2010. Plus he had a great offensive coordinator to cancel out his crap defense. :)

Chizik is one of the best defensive coaches to ever coach here and was our head coach in 2010. He’s an Auburn success story.

Neutral at best. A natty is legendary no question about it, but equally as legendary on the opposite side of the spectrum is the worst season in AU history.
And making the guys wear those ridiculous bicycle shorts during camp prior to 2012 may actually tip the scale just enough to the failure side lol

First Tigerwalk for Chiz and I was one of the first to fist pump him with my kids at the front of the walk....Chiz went psycho and was super pumped. I always remember that with him. I liked the guy. Great motivator. Wish we could have recruited better with him.

Chiz and his fam are great. He’s a great guy and family man and will give you the shirt off his back if you ask.
2010 was one of the greatest moments of all of our lives, what transpired after should be forgotten because much of it was out of his control. Chiz is awesome.
