auburn paid millions to chizik


Chizik doubled AU's national titles count, brought in a Heisman winner. Chizik also hired Gus, leading to his eventual HC position at AU.

Arkansas has always had the "wait till next year" mentality. I don't think it will ever change unfortunately

While I love watching the flagship continually set themselves up for failure time and time again I actually think bielema is a decent coach who just needs a little time.


I think so too, that said, I'm not sure it's worth it. Basically, Arkansas (a good but not great football school) took Bert (a good but not great coach) and is going to pay him elite money for good but not great results in an elite conference.

You could do the same thing for cheaper, and without having your school bashed for his idiotic comments.

I don't think you know the difference between having an alternate opinion and trolling your own.

I'm pretty sure it's the trolling part that makes us think he's an alter, but what do I know, I'm just a Hog fan.

doesn't change the fact that the return on investimate for 2012 was poor.... zero wins for chiz and less less than 5 conference wins for barbee.

we also shouldn't have given him the huge raise to begin with... that's on the AD.

How is this trolling his own? If the guy thinks Long is making terrible hires, that's his opinion. Countless AU fans made "fire Jay Jacobs" threads. Just because he's calling you guys out for being disturbingly optimistic/delusional, doesn't mean he's trying to troll you.

I've never started a troll thread in the 3+ years I've posted here yet no one has accused me of being an alter. What you fail to realize\refuse to see here is the obvious anti Arkansas bullshite that the OP and a few others spew without once bringing anything positive to the board.

Don't pretend that if an "Auburn" poster showed up and exclusivley posted Anti Auburn bullshite that no Aubie would call his arse out.

How many were asking for Chizik to be fired after his first year?

How many were asking for the basketball coach to be fired after making a post season tourney?

No surprise. They're from Arkansas. The cult / clan mentality is ingrained into their DNA.

Most would install a chip / tattler to their brain stems if asked.

Yes, because this thread here is the only thread he's ever created, and it's his first post - ever.

And, btw, he doesn't just have issues with these hirings in his OP, but you know that already.

Not many at all actually, but of course he didn't go winless in the SEC that year.

Now I will grant most fans wanted to fire Jacobs after he announced the hire, but once Chizik got there, the fans were patient.

No, I missed that. He might be an alter then, either that or just blatantly pessimistic with a told you so attitude.
