Auburn Tigers head coach Alex Golesh joins The Next Round for a wide-ranging conversation covering everything from celebrity moments at a charity golf event to the new reality of building a winning college football program.
Golesh talks about being starstruck meeting John Daly and Bo Jackson, his relationship with country music star Riley Green, and how those connections can help Auburn Football in the modern NIL era.
The conversation also dives deep into the future of college football spring practice, including why Golesh still supports the current 15-practice model — unless the transfer portal changes the rules. He also explains why spring games matter for young players, what coaches learn from scrimmages, and how to evaluate Byrum Brown after an up-and-down performance.
Plus, Golesh opens up about the constant fundraising demands of modern college football, the true cost of roster retention, and why his goal at Auburn is not just to compete — it is to win a national championship.
Can Alex Golesh bring a fun, winning brand of football back to Auburn?
