Former Texas defensive coordinator that is.
ESPN, the same network that reported Auburn hired current Texas DC Will Muschamp two days ago, now says Auburn has hired Iowa State coach Gene Chizik as its next head coach.
What could go wrong?
The Cyclones went winless in Big 12 play this season, and their win total has dipped in each of the past three seasons.
Last week, Chizik stripped offensive coordinator Robert McFarland and defensive coordinator Wayne Bolt of those duties and reassigned them within the staff. He also fired quarterbacks coach Tony Petersen and secondary coach Shawn Raney.
Oh, right.
