Bryan Harsin will return as Auburn football coach next season, the school announced after weeks of rumors and a probe into his first year with the program.
“I am pleased to report that the evaluation of concerns raised regarding our football program is complete,” school president Jay Gogue said in a statement. “I am equally pleased to confirm that Bryan Harsin remains our head football coach.
“As an institution of higher education, Auburn will always take the action necessary to ensure the well-being of its students, faculty, and staff. Recently, individuals raised concerns to my administration about the football program. The nature of these concerns compelled a fact-finding review. To do nothing would have been an abdication of the university's responsibilities.”
