Re: Paul Clark lets Loose!

There is a lot of truth in that rant, especially the part about just hiring his old friends when he had the budget to hire much more talented assistants.
 
Re: Paul Clark lets Loose!

And what went on durning game day. He forgot to say he didnt do many interviews and even stood some up in the media.
 
I think that we have the benefit of the fact that this happened in a very low-key year for the coaching carousel. I mean, there's at least an increased chance in a surprise or big name hire considering there's not many other competing openings out there, let alone at a BCS school.
 
Re: Paul Clark lets Loose!

Wow.....very strong stuff from Paul.

I used to post a fair amount over on CycloneReport.com until they started charging me for even general posting privileges (how I came to Cyclone Fanatic, incidentally), but I've always respected what Paul has done over there and his writing ability. It does appear he was holding in those feelings about Chizik until now.

Absolutely! That really bugged me when it happened. Here we were supposedly making a big commitment to get the best coordinators and he hires his buddies with the thin resumes.

Some of that rant is a little over-the-top but there's also a lot of truth that a lot of us tried hard to overlook throughout the season.
 
Re: Paul Clark lets Loose!

Seems that, more often that not, things that are shocking at first and seem like terrible news are really for the best in the long run. Maybe here, the long run means over the weekend, and we're moving right into a better place now.
 
Re: Paul Clark lets Loose!

When Chizik was hired I was thrilled. When I heard we would be increasing OC/DC pay to get better talent even more. When Bolt and McFarland hired...I said who?

Hind sight being 20/20 McFarland and Bolt waay overpayed...and probaby true of Chizik's decesion making.

Not a fan of PC based on what I have seen of him in the past, but damn, that was a good read. Nice job Paul!

Re: Paul Clark lets Loose!

Right on Paul!

I've said it before, Chizik is all about one thing, his career or more accuratly, himself. Look at his record. He bailed on Auburn for a bigger and better deal at Texas. He bailed on Texas after a championship to get his name on the front door at ISU. First chance to step up from us and he's gone like a shot! This man is only in it for one team.........Team Chizik!!!
