stupid. Go up to any Iowa State fan and ask if they'd rather have Tuberville or Chizik.

The Iowa St fans must be thanking every Auburn alum they can find.

Big wow. Can't imagine the boosters being happy with this. A 2 win coach coming into the SEC, where 7 or 8 win seasons gets you fired? Good luck with all that.
I guess he didn't burn any bridges at Auburn. Maybe easier to recruit Auburn than ISU, you think?

Just got through checking out some Auburn message boards and they are hot to say the least.

What a bunch of morons.
Guess Auburn Football is owned by trustee guys like Lauder. This has out of control BOOSTER/TRUSTEE/RICH BANKER written all over it.
No justification for this hire whatsoever.
