Recently, Hugh Freeze hired someone who should enable him to concentrate more on the football field.
Coach Freeze was open about not being too involved in the game plan the previous season because he was concentrating so much on recruiting the 2024 and 2025 classes. The game plans were written by his former defensive coordinator Ron Roberts and offensive coordinator Philip Montgomery. On offense, the team performed better in the games where Coach Freeze took a more active role.
Will Redmond, who was hired by the Auburn Tigers from LSU, will contribute to the Tigers’ amazing roster construction. Coach Freeze will be able to concentrate more on things that benefit Auburn on the football field as a result, while Redmond will take care of personnel management. Redmond assembled a team at LSU that contributed to the Bayou Bengles’ 2022 SEC West championship.
The host of Auburn’s Locked “It was pretty telling when Brian Kelly got to Baton Rouge and chose to retain him, and obviously that was the right decision because they flipped the roster almost immediately,” said Zac Blackerby regarding the hiring of Redmond. Redmond played a major role in that, and during Hugh Freeze’s first season at Auburn, one of the main internal discussions among Auburn supporters was, “Okay, what’s the proper balance here?” Hugh Freeze must undoubtedly be included in the offensive and play-calling game plans for Saturday. When he was participating, things were different from when he wasn’t. However, Hugh Freeze’s efforts are necessary for you to receive this class in 2024. Will Redmond’s arrival, in my opinion, frees him up to spend less time on non-football-related tasks like building the roster and grading players on a large board, including transfer and high school students. As he should, Hugh Freeze will continue to be involved in all of it. The head coach is him. This is a significant step for Auburn supportersāthe majority of whom want to see Hugh Freeze call plays more often. Yes, this is an off-field position. It is not one of the men who will be hitting the road to find recruits. This is the kind of hire that will improve your program. This hire improved Auburn football, yet it’s not a really spectacular one.
