Paul Rhoads, evidently.

As I recall, Auburn's Tuberville offered the DC position to CPR only a couple of years into his tenure as Pitt's DC. Didn't CPR decline the offer, saying he was obligated to stay more than a couple of years since the Pitt head coach gave him a great opportunity to become a DC?

Could be I've got the story wrong, but this is how I recall it at this moment. (Tuberville then hired Chizik as DC.)

Lateral moves. . . .

Good to hear I'll actually get to see a football coach at the tailgate event this year. Went to the one in Sioux City and Chiz was nowhere to be found. I guess he did a TV interview and went straight to the bus.

I am sure he probably did. It is amazing and I do consider myself a dope for not figuring out earlier that Chizdick never wanted to be at ISU. He talked a good game but if I would have actually payed any attention at all to his actions once he got here I would not have been shocked to have it confirmed that he is a total d-bag.
