Auburn Head Coach Gene Chizik's OCD Cleans Up Auburn Locker Room and Players' Dress

The first post for April 1. Happy April Fools Day.

The Auburn Tigers were not able to get a practice in on Tuesday due to the rain, but practices will resume today.

It sounds like Auburn head coach Gene Chizik has a cleanliness affliction. Since taking over the head coaching responsibilities, Chizik has implemented a new dress code for Auburn's football players and the locker room is expected to be tidy as all shoes and equipment must be perfectly put away. The new coaching staff has barred players from wearing hats and jewelry in the athletic complex all together, and the same applies when the players are out in public.

There's a reason behind Chizik's demands. “When people see, make them understand right now, ‘That must be an Auburn football player because I can tell with the way he carries himself,’ says Chizik. "That’s important to us. That’s what we talk to them about every day, and we’re going to be unbending on that.”
