Like him as a person and as a DC, but glad to see him in the rear view mirror as coach.

He became the 5-19 coach we hired. Iowa State was bad, and got worse when Chizik was there. We ignored the red flags when Iowa State fans were glad he left and Paul Rhodes talked about how bad the fundamentals were when he arrived the year Chizik left. Auburn hired a dud who struck lightning in a bottle for one year.

I also think the praise he gets for navigating the team in 2010 is overblown. It's much harder to keep your team focused when they're being praised by the media and everyone around them. Not so much when it's a "us against the world" situation, which is exactly what 2010 was.

Speaking of former coaches, how about Paul Rhoads at ISU? For all the shite talking he did when he first got there.
