A New Era

Widely regarded as one of the top offensive minds in college football, Alex Golesh has been named the 33rd head coach in Auburn Football history. 
  
Golesh engineered a rapid rebuild of the USF program, and under his leadership the Bulls recorded 23 wins over the last three seasons including a 9-3 mark in 2025. Prior to Golesh’s arrival in Tampa, the Bulls had won just four games over the prior three seasons.

An absolutely incredible hire. He has an edge that Auburn has never had from a head coach. I can't wait to see what this brings to the Georgia and Alabama rivalries.

Auburn needed someone who was willing to bleed out on the 50 for a win. I think that's Alex Golesh.

I remember Golesh at Tennessee 🔥 He then took a USF team that in the 3 years before he got there won a grand total of FOUR games and turned the program around.
