Fly War Eagle knows that many Auburn football fans don’t want to hear about Gus Malzahn, UCF, or anything Knights-related anymore. That said, Malzahn bringing back former Tigers OL coach Herb Hand to join him in Orlando is too juicy of a steak not to chew into.

Hand had a short stay on the Plains, but he was instrumental in the team’s explosive offense during his Auburn stint.

Not only that, his ability to form a sturdy enough offensive line for Kerryon Johnson could have facilitated his eventual NFL jump.
