Auburn football head coach Gus Malzahn and Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt shake hands after the game at Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn, Ala., on Saturday, Nov. 21, 2020. Auburn defeated Tennessee 30-17.
Despite the fact that he was no longer a fit for the Auburn football head coaching position, the Auburn Family still stands behind former HC Gus Malzahn and is gunning for him to get the job at Tennessee.
The firing of former Auburn football head coach Gus Malzahn was bittersweet to much of the Auburn Family. Gus is a good guy, the players loved him, and he truly is a great coach (who has had a few off-years).
