Hugh Freeze is hiring DJ Durkin to be @AuburnFootball’s DC, sources tell ESPN. It will be Durkin’s fourth different stint as a DC in the SEC. He was at Texas A&M the past two seasons, Ole Miss the two seasons prior to that and Florida in 2013-14.

Does Freeze know he prefers to play 3 DL instead of 2?

I guess nobody else wanted him so Auburn scooped him up. They probably pay him $1.5MM/yr.

I hope he brings this winning tradition with him to the plains.

“I told you for the last time Jimbo, I don’t care how many 5 star DL we have on the payroll. We are rushing 3 and dropping 8!”

Best part about this was them leaking Charles Kelly to make this hire more palatable.

This is amazing.

We had to make a hire we were all fine with more palatable?

Top rate PR.

We also forced Saban to retire so we could have cover to fire Caddy

The timing couldn’t have been better for Auburn IMO. All eyes in the county were on Alabama and Auburn didn’t need everyone laughing at them, again.

It’s funny because everyone said the same things about Steele and he did pretty damn good.

Trying to remember who Bama’s DC was when Saban retired??
