AUBURN, Ala. – There’s a Father’s Day card out there that defines father as “one who gives care and protection; who encourages, nurtures and teaches.”
If that’s the case, every member of Auburn’s coaching staff should be considered a father. Some, such as defensive line coach Rodney Garner, have children of their own. Garner has six daughters at home. But every single one of them has kids on the football team that they’re responsible for, kids that they “encourage, nurture and teach.”
“Honestly, I’d like to be remembered for being a great father,” Garner said.
