Derek Mason steps in as the new Auburn football defensive coordinator and looks to keep up the momentum Kevin Steele had on the recruiting trail as he left Auburn after the 2020 season. We have heard that Nick Eason has been dominating the trail for Auburn football, but now Jeff Schmedding looks to be making his mark with a highly touted 3-star out of Georgia.
EJ Lightsey is a 3-star linebacker out of Fitzgerald, GA, and ranks as the #447 overall prospect and the #44 linebacker in the 2022 class.
