Alex Golesh has brought some receivers to Auburn that he is familiar with.
On Sunday, former USF receivers Kory Pettigrew and Christian Neptune announced that they will follow their former head coach to the Plains and play for the Tigers in 2026.
As a freshman in 2025, Neptune caught 38 passes for 335 yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 39 yards on six attempts. The Cantonment, Fla., native also spent time on special teams, returning kicks and punts.
Also a freshman, Pettigrew recorded three receptions for 28 total yards. The Perry, Ga., native was a 3-star signee out of Perry High School.
