Definitely. I think it would be better to start investing in the volleyball program and I bet the money goes a lot further.

"We love this university, we love who we work for, we love this football team, we love this community."

"We're on a journey here that we will get done," Chizik said. "I'm as happy as I've ever been in the coaching profession."

And we all thought Danny Mac's coach speak was unbearable. At least Dan just twisted the stats instead of lying point blank.

Give me a break. You have to consider that Auburn or Texas were probably his two dream schools.

If ISU was a powerhouse and you had been a DC at ISU and took a HC job at Temple as a stepping stone (yes, we're pretty much at that level right now). Then ISU came calling, you would go too.

Have you ever changed jobs or interviewed for other jobs? If so, by your logic, you're a horrible person.

As far as Chizik goes, if this is true then he is worthless. How can a man preach integrity and leave a program in such horrible shape the second another school comes calling.

It appears easy. Like the Browns moving out of town at night in 20 vans.

When Sportcenter starts reporting VBall results and the program starts bringing in revenue to help cover other sports, then we'll talk. Until then, it is a holllow arguement.

So he bought two weeks and embarrassed his friends? Pathetic.

Yep, canceling my FB and BB season tickets and getting VB.

**LindenCy** · 12-12-2008, 10:51 PM

As an ISU fan, I am very disappointed, but if he indeed got the Auburn job, you can't blame him for leaving. I think a lot of the anger on here is at the prospect of what our program now looks like and it is going to be directed at Gene and Pollard.

Well you can have fun not supporting them, I'll be cheering them on at 5:30pm on ESPNU, i dont give a crap if they dont bring in the revenue, without them winning tonight, it would be one of the worse nights ever. THey are Cyclones, they deserve our support, and if u dont want to support them thats fine by me. I'm sorry for trying to stay positive with what has all gone on in the past 24 hours.

The lies go farther than that.

**gogagig** · 12-12-2008, 10:52 PM

Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Pollard himself interview somewhere last year

Not true. Our volleyball team is excellent and it is an amazingly exciting sport to watch. More people should care about volleyball. The girls deserve a lot more support than our joke of a football program.
