In a shocking turn of events, news broke earlier this week that senior running back and team captain Damari Alston has parted ways with the Auburn Tigers football team.
Rumors circulated online, as they do, and Head Coach Hugh Freeze confirmed Alston's departure in his press conference on Monday, explaining that Alston "failed to meet the standards and expectations of our program."
In the wake of the Tigers' third straight conference loss and when fans' confidence in the head coach is at an all-time low, it was not the best news to receive.
