Auburn Football: Two Auburn Greats are No Longer SEC Assistants

The departures of two assistant coaches — one each at LSU and Georgia — in the past month could have unintended consequences for Auburn football during the 2017 season.

Former Auburn quarterback Dameyune Craig left Baton Rouge after one year as LSU’s wide receivers coach, apparently not fitting in with coach Ed Orgeron’s future plans.

Meanwhile, former Auburn defensive lineman Tracy Rocker, who had been on Georgia’s staff for the past three years, including a stint as associate head coach, is now abruptly gone from Athens. He left this past week.

The departure of Craig and Rocker mean that there are two less coaches on the opposing sideline who know the Tigers and their systems.
