Auburn, Florida Hire New Coordinators
Largely lost in Monday's coverage of the BCS National Championship Game between Alabama and LSU was the fact that another SEC West team made some big news. Auburn hired the Atlanta Falcons' Brian VanGorder as defensive coordinator. The DC job on the Plains became vacant a little over a month ago...
The SEC Coaching Carousel Scorecard
