Auburn optimistic with new coach Golesh

Auburn football has faced its worst stretch since the 1940s with five straight losing seasons under previous coaches Bryan Harsin and Hugh Freeze. The Tigers have now hired Alex Golesh from South Florida, hoping he can reverse the program's fortunes. likesport.biz

Golesh brings an energetic approach and has already made key moves including quarterback Byrum Brown. While bowl expectations are reasonable for Year 1, there's optimism that Golesh will better utilize Auburn's talent than his predecessors did.
