“Auburn University has decided to make a change in the leadership of the Auburn University football program. President Roberts made the decision after a thorough review and evaluation of all aspects of the football program.
“Auburn will begin an immediate search for a coach that will return the Auburn program to a place where it is consistently competing at the highest levels and representing the winning tradition that is Auburn football.” Harsin is being fired eight games into his second season on the Plains. His overall record is 9-12 . Currently, the Tigers are at 3-5 this season, with four games left to play in the regular season.All season, he was considered one of the coaches most at risk of being fired. He finished his first season at 6-7. Early this year, there was an attempt to replace him, due to staff and player transfers and the Tigers’ struggles with recruiting. That plan failed.
Allen Greene, Auburn’s athletic director who played a major role in his hiring, announced in August that he was stepping down, which left Harsin without the support he once had. Harsin was hired from Boise State, where he once played quarterback and where he had a 69-19 record and won three Mountain West titles.
