Freeze agrees to be next coach at Auburn, sources say

Hugh Freeze has agreed to a deal to become Auburn's next head football coach, sources told ESPN.

An official announcement is expected later Monday.

Freeze has spent the last four seasons at Liberty, where he took the Flames to unprecedented heights. He's widely regarded as one of the top offensive minds in the game. This will be Freeze's second head coaching stint in the SEC after leading Ole Miss' program from 2012-2016. He beat Alabama and Nick Saban in back-to-back seasons in 2014 and 2015 and capped the 2015 season with the Rebels' first Sugar Bowl victory since 1970.
