Auburn is set to hire Colorado defensive coordinator Charles Kelly, a former Tigers player who has extensive ties to the state, for a position on its staff, sources told ESPN.
Kelly, who played at Auburn from 1986 to 1989, joined coach Deion Sanders at Colorado and led the defense through a 4-8 season. Sanders had been complimentary of Kelly, who facilitated some improvement with the defense despite some personnel challenges.
He likely would take on a co-defensive coordinator role at Auburn, which has Ron Roberts in place as the primary coordinator, sources said.
