re: Sporting News article on AU

The guy is an idiot. Let's all be perfectly honest here, Cam and Fairley jumped our program forward a good bit beyond where it was in 2010. That team would have been good without them, but not great. Now, what has really hurt was Chizik's 2009 class (and somewhat 2010). It was very talented, but obviously a very risky class due to him trying o salvage he program from the dumbstruck fire that Tubs had left it in. Let's not forget that the 2011 team was the youngest team IN THE COUNTRY. That is why the team is still so young this season. That is on Chiz's early class.

Going backwards? No. This year and next year will be the most talented (from top to bottom) teams AU has had in a long time. If we aren't in the hunt for the title next year, Chiz is in trouble.
