Iowa State head coach
Gene Chizik has been chosen as Auburn's next head coach, the Press-Register has learned.
An official statement is likely today or tomorrow, while a press conference would probably occur on Monday.
Chizik is 5-19 in two seasons at Iowa State. He previously served as defensive coordinator at Auburn and Texas.
Chizik replaces
Tommy Tuberville, who left 10 days ago in a negotiated resignation. Tuberville was 85-40 overall and 52-30 in the SEC in 10 seasons at Auburn.
Chizik was coordinator on Auburn's undefeated 2004 team. He left for Texas after the season and was part of the Longhorns' 2005 national championship team.
