Gus Malzahn – Auburn Tigers
Stock: Steady
Auburn followed up loss to Florida State in the 2013 National Championship game with a disappointing season in 2014. Gus Malzahn made a smart move by hiring Will Muschamp to fix his defense, and the Tigers came away with some recruiting wins.
The offseason has been particularly quiet in that part of Alabama, seems all the bad headlines have drifted towards Tuscaloosa.
Fans seem to be in a “wait and see” mode right now with Auburn. The hope is that the Tigers will be back on track to compete in the SEC West again this season
