Auburn Football: Buying Stock in Alex Golesh

Auburn has hired Alex Golesh as its new football coach, ending a five-year losing streak and bringing optimism to the Plains.

Auburn has endured five consecutive losing seasons for the first time since 1946-50 under previous coaches Bryan Harsin and Hugh Freeze. The Tigers have now made their third coaching hire since firing Gus Malzahan. esporist.com

Analysts including Adam Cole of the Montgomery Advertiser are buying stock in Auburn's future with Golesh, citing his energy and ability to develop talent. The new coach brings a fresh approach with new quarterback Byrum Brown and a revamped offense, with bowl expectations being reasonable in Year 1.
