🏀 Men’s basketball takes on SEC Tournament
🐅 And much, much more!

🎙️ TALKING TIGERS

He was a second-generation Auburn football player. Jeris McIntyre followed his father to the Plains. Sedrick was a running back from Montgomery. Jeris, a wide receiver, from Tampa, Florida. He scored Auburn’s first touchdown in the 2003 season. It was Rod Bramblett’s first “Touchdown Auburn…” in the third week of the season. Now Jeris has returned to Auburn as the Director of Football/Alumni & High School Relations.

🎥 FAMILY + FAITH + BASKETBALL

The Daniels family built their lives around love, basketball, and Auburn. Marquis and Shana first met as student-athletes, creating a bond that would grow into a marriage, a family, and a shared passion for the game. Years later, their daughter Syriah carries that legacy forward on the same court where it all began.

But when Shana lost her battle with cancer, the family faced the unimaginable challenge of moving forward without the heart of their team. Family, Faith, and Basketball tells the inspiring story of the Daniels family.
