He's graduating from Auburn in May and plans to enroll in medical school. Notified the coaches a month ago. Backup Center for those who don't know.

Per AUC

I'm glad he's putting his education first. I remember that being a big thing with his parents when he signed a few years back. He got to play in a good many games and it's doubtful he would have started after Dismukes left anyways. (I believe he would have been a redshirt junior this coming year...) War Eagle Tunde, it was fun listening to commentators trying to pronounce your name while Dismukes was suspended.

This leaked out a while back. He pretty much said this was going to happen when he first enrolled. Promised his parents that a shot at playing football wouldn't interfere with his plans on attending med school. We had some discussion about it somewhere on this board, good luck finding it if you're interested

Damn that sucks. We really needed him for depth at center this year so we could redshirt Dampeer.

Kozan is an NFL guard. He's staying. Maybe another young guy moves over.

Yes. Is he a 3 year guy or 2?

That is great news for him. All Auburn fans should be proud, great recruiting tool when discussing academics.

Glad he has his priorities. He did play a lot at guard and at center. When Dismukes was suspended Tunde started.

Good for him, pretty badass for one of our Olinemen to go to med school.

Damn. Balancing football and maintaining what I assume is a med school level GPA? Nice.

I'm super happy for tunde he's been a auburn guy in his time at auburn and for him to have a prolific career off the field is just as exciting. WDE!
