AUBURN — Auburn football will return to Jordan-Hare Stadium in just under three months.
The athletics department announced Thursday that the Tigers will play their second A-Day spring game of the coach Hugh Freeze era April 6. It’ll be the first opportunity for fans to see early enrollees such as five-star receiver Cam Coleman and four-star linebacker Demarcus Riddick.
Auburn finished with a 6-7 record under Freeze in Year 1, losing its final three games of the season to New Mexico State, Alabama and Maryland. The Tigers have finished with a record under .500 for three consecutive campaigns, which is the first time that’s happened since it went a combined 11-20-2 from 1975-77.
Freeze did, however, land the No. 7 recruiting haul in the Class of 2024. It may not be done, either, as the Tigers are still in the race for five-star receiver Ryan Williams out of Saraland High School. Williams will be committing and signing with his future school in February.
