Description: 🚨 BREAKING: Auburn Moves On From Hugh Freeze 🚨 Auburn made a major move this week — Hugh Freeze is out, and DJ Durkin steps in as interim head coach. After another offensive collapse against Kentucky, Auburn fans demanded answers. Athletic Director John Cohen made it clear: “If we had an average offense, Hugh Freeze would still be here.” In this episode, we break down the real reasons behind Freeze’s firing, what it means for Auburn’s quarterback room, and how Derek Nix will handle play-calling duties. With Ashton Daniels taking first-team reps and Deuce Knight still redshirting, the Tigers’ offensive direction remains uncertain. We also discuss potential coaching candidates — including John Summerall from Tulane and Rhett Lashlee — and how Auburn can keep its elite recruiting class intact during the transition. Plus, we look at whether DJ Durkin can rally this roster to a bowl game finish and earn the full-time job. 🎧 Powered by The War Rapport — delivering in-depth Auburn football analysis every week.
