The dust has finally settled a little bit after Auburn hired Gene Chizik, who will put together a staff and hit the recruiting trail immediately.

We at the Ledger-Enquirer had a handful of stories today. Have a look:

In today's main story, Chizik talks about returning Auburn to a physical brand of football and defends his 5-19 record at Iowa State.

Athletic director Jay Jacobs is taking a lot of heat for this hire, and his legacy will be defined by it.

Chris White has a story about an Auburn fan base that is less than enthusiastic about the hire.

Chuck Williams has a column about Pat Dye, who thinks Auburn got the right guy for the job.
