Auburn adds a big piece — literally — with the commitment of offensive tackle Wilson Zierer. With OT being a major position of need and Zierer’s family ties (his brother played at Auburn), was he a must-have prospect for this class?

We break down what his addition means, why it could be the start of a preseason recruiting run, and who might be next on Auburn’s board as momentum starts to build.

Auburn hit the stage at SEC Media Days, and Hugh Freeze came out swinging. He set the tone with one bold goal — Auburn needs to be in the playoff conversation. That kind of expectation-setting is a major shift from years past.

Hugh also dropped several clever “call backs” to previous criticisms, subtly silencing some of his loudest doubters. The message was clear: confidence in this roster is very real, and it’s exactly what Auburn fans have been waiting to hear.

Bonus Pod! We’re diving into SEC Media Days and laying out our expectations for what we want to hear from Hugh Freeze and the Auburn players. What will the messaging be? What kind of tone will Freeze set heading into Year 2?

We break down what we think we’ll hear, what we hope to hear, and the questions we’d love to ask if we had the mic. From recruiting to roster confidence to offensive identity — this is the moment to set the tone for the season.

Hugh Freeze and John Cohen are doubling down on Auburn’s recruiting strategy under the new NIL "cap" era — sticking to the guidelines until it becomes clear that no one else is following them. Even baseball coach Butch Thompson is echoing the same message of patience and discipline.

Cohen continues to preach trust in the process, reminding everyone not to “confuse patience for inactivity.” He also made it clear: Auburn can pivot and “do what it takes” if the landscape demands it. We break down what this all means, what the real timeline looks like, and how Auburn plans to stay competitive on the trail — with or without clarity from the top.

The uncertainty around NIL and recruiting just won’t go away. Greg Sankey had a chance to offer some clarity at SEC Media Days — and instead, he sidestepped it once again. With August 1st approaching, schools are still left guessing about what’s allowed and what’s not.

We break down how Auburn might navigate the rollout of NIL Go, what adjustments could be coming, and whether Auburn can afford to keep playing it safe — or if it’s time to take some calculated risks in this new recruiting era.
