Athlon Sports has the Auburn Tigers as the worst team in the SEC West this spring. Why is that?

On today's episode of the Auburn Daily Show, Lance Dawe discusses a pair of Athlon Sports articles detailing Hugh Freeze's Auburn Tigers and where they stand relative to the rest of the Southeastern Conference during spring practice.

Athlon does not have a lot of faith in Freeze and the Tigers despite the turnaround on the recruiting trail since his arrival. Is this reasonable? Should Auburn fans be mad?

Athlon also released an article claiming Robby Ashford is the worst quarterback in the SEC. What should the perspective on Ashford be? Does anyone truly know what Philip Montgomery will turn him into this offseason?

Auburn football is in the running for one of the best wide receivers in the 2024 recruiting class.

Auburn football is in the running for one of the best wide receivers in the 2024 recruiting class.

Cameron Coleman, a four-star receiver out of Central High School (Phenix City, AL) has just received a prediction to land at Auburn.

Keith Niebuhr of On3's Auburn Live just submitted an expert prediction for Coleman to commit to the Tigers.

He has 50% confidence in his prediction.

Coleman just recently received offers from Florida and LSU. He currently holds offers from 11 SEC schools, as well as Ohio State, Texas, Oregon, Michigan, and Florida State, among others.

The 6-foot-3, 175 pound wide receiver is the No. 152 prospect nationally according to the 247Sports composite rankings. He is also the No. 26 wide receiver in the 2024 class.

The Tigers have been looking for a bigger-bodied receiver to utilize on the outside since the departure of Seth Williams in 2020. Coleman could end up being that dude.

Hugh Freeze was known at Ole Miss for finding success with taller, physical receivers that could knock defenders down and make contested catches. The Tigers would be lucky to land Coleman's services, given the pursuit from so many other prestigious programs.

Freeze and his staff already have three commitments - four-star cornerbacks Jayden Lewis and A'Mon Lane as well as four-star quarterback Walker White.

Score a QB (think Vandagriff level) in the next two months and we'll jump a couple spots.
