The guy is 8-0 in bowl games he has coached. He has coached on 3 of the last 5 BCS conference teams to go undefeated and he is currently turning Auburn into a powerhouse while everybody is thumbing their nose at him.


All three of these "facts" are just relative truths. He was only the head coach in two of those bowl wins. He was only the head coach in one of those 3 championships.

As for turning Auburn into a powerhouse, what exactly constitutes a powerhouse in your mind?

It might be the wrong term to use...meant to say a consistent Top 10 team.

This comes with time. It can't be rushed. As it stands right now, he's a good coach. Greatness comes as a product of more years than he's put in so far.

Saban is not a top notch coach unless he has much better talent.



I hate it when people use this argument. It reeks of ignorance.

Name me one coach in any sport that has won anything of significance without any talent.

If Auburn hadn't optioned for the 1 year lease on Newton than y'all lose atleast 3 games.

What is the substance emanating from his nose/mouth?
Is that a cigar?

1. Prove he can field a defense as a head coach
2. Come out of this NCAA investigation clean



we'll find out after gus leaves if chiz is for real or not. I'm not gonna say chiz is a bad head coach but lets not forget iowa state rejoicing that Auburn hired him.

He just needs to figure out how to keep "da Trooper" on his staff. That guy is AU's most important fb coach. He carryies the money sack and does all the dirty work. See Blake from NC! I will say this: He inherited a group of senior linemen that know every dirty trick in the book. They're especially adept at chop blocking. That gave your money-man qb plenty of opportunities to get open.

HE needs to win over his fanbase.

Bama fans love Nick Saban but there are AU fans that still doubt Coach Chizik

I 'll take a shot:

Shake that nasty moniker that the school he is the figure head of continues to cheat and pay players and he is too stoopid to know it or admit it BEHIND THE VEIL OF BEING A PIOUS MAN?

Is that the right answer?

I've seen this posted before, thought it was just a joke. Now I'm curious, does he really have no teeth? Looked at a few pics and see none with teeth showing.
