Auburn football: Fans discuss Gus Malzahn era after Cornelius Williams firing

Auburn football head coach Bryan Harsin sent shockwaves through the team overnight after bringing out LSU transfer TJ Finley to replace third-year starter Bo Nix and then firing WR coach Cornelius Williams the following day.

After combining for nine drops this season, Auburn football’s receivers have shown little improvement up to week four. In Harsin’s book, it was time to make a change, so Williams was replaced with former Boise State WR coach and offensive coordinator Eric Kiseau.

With little information having been released to the public so far, fans are running wild with speculation that there must be more to the firing than just the on-field performances of the receivers.
