When Towns McGough signed with Auburn after flipping his commitment from Ole Miss in 2024, the expectations were that he would follow Alex McPherson in the line of great kickers that played on the Plains.

After two seasons, including a freshman campaign that saw him having to fill in for McPherson due to illness, the Auburn High School product has announced he plans on entering the transfer portal.
