In today’s episode, we cut through all the noise surrounding Auburn football — the portal drama, coordinator debates, recruiting panic, NIL arguments, culture talk, all of it. None of that matters if Auburn doesn’t get the head coaching hire right. This is the decision that will shape the program for the next decade, and the athletic department cannot afford to miss again. We break down what Auburn truly needs in its next leader, why alignment and stability matter more than buzzwords, the pitfalls that have held the program back, and how one right hire can change everything — from player retention to recruiting to on-field results. Auburn fans deserve a real plan, not quick fixes, and it all starts with choosing the right head coach. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
