Summary

NOTE: This was recorded before Kentrell White decommitted from Auburn. We mention that dynamic briefly but obviously that worked itself out. Auburn Tigers shake up recruiting under new head coach Alex Golesh, already landing key flips like three-star tight end DJ Broughton from USF and eyeing talent within a crucial 250-mile radius. Can Golesh keep momentum with prospects likE Jourdan Carter, while addressing uncertainties at quarterback and tight end? Zac Blackerby and Ben Taylor discuss how Golesh’s early moves and recruiting promises are resonating with fans and reshaping Auburn’s roster strategy ahead of signing day. Covering high school football standouts, the impact of NIL on decommitments, and potential domino effects in the transfer portal, their analysis spotlights recruiting wins—and losses—including Braylon Womack’s last-minute flip to Mississippi State. Will Auburn’s recalibration pay off in the SEC? Dive into insights on player development timelines, coaching philosophies, and why the right fit still drives the Tigers’ push for gridiron dominance.
