Auburn Hiring SEC Veteran Coach As New Defensive Coordinator

Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze is reportedly hiring DJ Durkin as his new defensive coordinator.

Durkin heads to Auburn after serving as Texas A&M's defensive coordinator and linebacker coach last season. He replaces Ron Roberts, who left Auburn for a Florida defensive staff job.

Durkin has been the defensive coordinator at Ole Miss and Florida in the past and was the head coach at Maryland from 2016-2018.
