    Hrm...

    "Make no mistake, I was humbled by Auburn's decision. And I knew this had to be a God appointment because this whole thing just didn't make sense otherwise. I knew God had to be behind opening this door," Chizik said in the book.
    Chizik also expressed dismay at a statement Pollard released once news broke of Chizik's departure questioning the timing of his decision and how the process played out.

    "Jamie is a quality athletic director, and I respect him for what he has done at Iowa State. But I wish he had handled my departure differently. It could have, and should have, gone so much better for all involved," Chizik wrote.

    At least the last paragraph is positive toward Rhoads.

    I'm assuming that you're kidding. If so, I applaud your ability on this one to kid yourself.

    Out of pure boredom, I started a "customer discussion" on the Amazon page for the book.

    Ha, ha, ha. Check out the section below from the Amazon.com page! If this is a CF prank, superb job, but I think this may be an act of God. Seriously, this is what I just found on that page.

    I love to ask him why he didn't write about 30 seconds meeting with players to tell them that he was leaving ?

    5-10 minute meeting based on what Austin Arnaud says on the current "Adam Gray Insurance CycloneFanatic.com Podcast." I'm listening to it now. 30+ minutes and still going. Talks frankly about Chizik. AA likes him and still tells it like it is.

    If it takes longer to write about it than it does to have the meeting, leave it out of the book.

    Nice mis-spelling! He doesn't even deserve to have his name spelled correctly.
