Some quotes from @DB_5trey on Gene Chizik on this week's episode:
"Eugene Chizik didn't help shite."
"This man thought he was God."
"His coaching staff on the defensive side was trash"
Tune in for the details I promise you do not wanna miss this
He says he’s going to bring some teammates onto the cast and prove it’s not just him. I didn’t listen to it because I really can’t find it. Boomer issues I guess.

2012
Bates had like the only highlight play of the entire year.
I do remember being hyped about Brian VanGorder. What an immense disappointment.

What about 2012? The podcast was just recently done as far as I can tell. What is it you want to say?

The ONLY thing that this does is make Bates and whomever look bad.

I’m actually interested in listening to it. They aren’t exactly wrong when you look at how badly our defense regressed with Chiz.

Chiz obviously lost that team. I'm 100% sure it's not just him.

Didn’t Bates get a shot at the NFL. Why bring out something from 12 years ago. Breaking News! Lol

What good is this going to do anyone. Zero. Its just stupid and pointless.
It was 8 years ago for fricks sake. Players talking shite on coaches 8 years after they played for them is just fricked up

What good is any interview? I’d love to hear a player’s perspective on what led to that shitshow.
Hopefully he actually gets into details of things that went wrong and not just vague generalizations.

Oh is he gonna talk about the players quitting in multiple games. Especially early in the season against aTm. I was at the game and they completely quit trying in the second quarter.

Sour grapes are seldom good even when made into a fine whine.

Yep. I like chiz. Wish he stayed longer. Just wasn't cut to be head coach.
Hope no players go on that podcast
ETA: we didn't play football in 2012 so I don't know what the big deal is about

Here is a clip of the audio for anyone wanting to hear for themselves...it's kind of crazy -- The Boulware and Thigpen stuff he goes into on the full audio is also pretty damn bizarre.

I watched "The Intro" on this channel. Actually had me cracking up. Reminded me a lot of my high school years.
I love the insight he brings as a high school recruit, college player, and NFL player. The Auburn stuff isn't even that crazy. There were rumors going around that Chizik was getting a bit of a god complex after 2010. This just confirms it.
The story about the last senior meeting in 2012 had me dying

He lost some credibility when he couldn’t keep the 2011 and 2012 seasons straight. We opened with Clemson in the Kickoff Classic in 2012. The “Slapdick State” opener we almost lost was in 2011.
Can’t argue with him about the cluelessness of the staff though.

I thought it was funny after dogging Chizik the whole time, at the end, Bates says that's just a little 'light' story on Gene Chizik.
Right. lol...
p.s. Having to watch that shaking waving video during the whole interview needed to go...

This thread is funny. Chizik clearly sucked. I probably wouldn't put him on blast on a podcast but is anyone doubting any of this stuff or even it's entertainment value?
