Gus Malzahn isn't the only Auburn coach having to deal with job rumors at this juncture of the season.
Tigers offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey's name surfaced Sunday in connection to a head coaching vacancy not far down the road. A report from USA Today's Dan Wolken indicated that South Alabama has interest in Lindsey as a candidate to be the Jaguars' next head coach.
"I'm focused on what we're doing here," Lindsey said when asked Sunday if he has been in contact with South Alabama.
South Alabama announced last week that Joey Jones will step down as the program's head coach after its season finale this Saturday against New Mexico State.
