Auburn looks to convert recruiting, portal wins into victories on the field

AUBURN, Ala. -- Jeremiah Wright has experienced a little bit of everything since arriving at Auburn in 2020, just not a lot of winning.

"Four different coaches, COVID, quarantines, a torn ACL, some ups, but a lot of downs, too many downs," Wright said with a reflective laugh.

"It's taken a lot of patience."

And nobody needs to tell Wright, a sixth-year senior offensive guard for the Tigers, that patience is as abundant in the realm of SEC football as flowing streams are in a desert. That's especially true at a place like Auburn, which is one of just six programs nationally (Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, LSU and Ohio State are the others) to have won at least one national title and played for another over the past 15 years.
