CRUCIAL: Alex Golesh has made TWO GENIUS hires so far for Auburn football | Auburn Tigers Podcast

Auburn Tigers face a pivotal offseason as Alex GolEsh builds his coaching staff, signaling a fresh strategy for roster development and retention. Can rising stars like Cam Coleman, Jay Crawford, and Amaris Williams anchor Auburn’s future amid projected heavy portal losses? Zac Blackerby and Darrell Dapprich debate whether continuity and low-profile hires, like keeping VonTrell King-Williams, will translate into on-field success—especially as NIL dollars reshape recruiting priorities.

Key discussion points include the urgent need to retain top talent, expectations for Deuce Knight and the quarterback situation, and DeMarcus Van Dyke’s arrival as cornerbacks coach to shore up the defensive backfield. The duo highlights Auburn’s defensive improvements, ongoing portal challenges, and speculate on transfer scenarios that could redefine the Tigers’ prospects. Will Golish’s approach help Auburn thrive in a fast-moving SEC landscape?
