This week, Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze, along with athletic director John Cohen, spoke to fans at an Alabama country club about Auburn’s currently 90th-ranked recruiting class, a metric in which the Tigers are surpassed by the likes of San Jose State, South Alabama, and Idaho.

Hugh Freeze Makes Concerning Admission on Auburn's NIL Budget originally appeared on Athlon Sports. It has not been a good week to be an Auburn Tigers fan.

Despite the rough summer, head coach Hugh Freeze is still confident that the class can finish strong. According to Freeze, the recent House settlement and Auburn prioritizing its revenue sharing money toward maintaining the current roster has hurt the Tigers’ efforts on the recruiting trail.
