Analyst bearish on Auburn due to damage from ‘dumb’ hire
Auburn football hiring Bryan Harsin in December 2020 was a “dumb” move according to Mike Farrell of Mike Farrell Sports, who believes the damage done by his tenure could hold the Tigers back during the early days of the Hugh Freeze era.
“Are (the Tigers) a power program? They are to me with a natty in the last 15 years and another national title game appearance as well,” Farrell prefaced before saying, “But the Gus Malzahn days at the end were bad, and the Bryan Harsin hire was dumb. Hugh Freeze is a good hire, but it will take time and patience for them to get back to respectable.”
