🤸 THIS WEEK IN AUBURN GYMNASTICS

Jeff Graba talks with Andy Burcham to preview Auburn's season-opening meet against NC State.

🔼 Pen To Paper. Auburn football signed electrifying quarterback Byrum Brown! He rejoins head football coach Alex Golesh from South Florida. Brown led all FBS quarterbacks in 2025 with 42 total touchdowns while averaging 347.2 yards of offense per game.

🔼 Heartbreaker. Auburn men’s basketball lost a heartbreaker to Texas A&M last night, falling 90-88. KeShawn Murphy hit what would have been a game-winning 3-point shot, but the points did not count as officials ruled that time had expired before the shot was released. Keyshawn Hall led the Tigers with 32 points and 12 rebounds. The Tigers will host No. 15 Arkansas on Saturday.

🔼 Welcome To The Plains. Auburn soccer announced the addition of Rob McGann to the coaching staff. He spent the last two seasons as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at UTSA. McGann will focus on the Tigers’ attacking game model and possession philosophy. He brings extensive experience in coaching and developing talent, having worked with clubs in Texas and England.
