Auburn hires USF head coach, beating out Arkansas, per report

Auburn is expected to hire Alex Golesh to be its next head coach, per ESPN’s Pete Thamel.

Golesh was the head coach at USF. Reports surfaced last week reporting Golesh was taking the head coaching job at Arkansas. However, conflicting reports surfaced soon after stating Golesh had not taken the head coaching job.

Alabama’s defensive coordinator Kane Wommack was previously linked to the Arkansas job opening.

Wommack was asked about the job opportunity on Monday.

“I appreciate the question, but I’m just not going to address any job opportunity stuff,” Wommack said

The Razorbacks are now set to hire Ryan Silversmith from Memphis.
