Auburn hires experienced secondary coach Greg Brown

Auburn is bringing in Greg Brown to coach its secondary.

The longtime assistant spent last year on Missouri’s staff coaching the program’s defensive backs.

Brown replaces Wes McGriff, who accepted the defensive coordinator position at Ole Miss in December. McGriff received permission from new boss Hugh Freeze to stay with Auburn through the Sugar Bowl.

The program made the news official with a press release Saturday night. Auburn Undercover’s Brandon Marcello first reported the hire.

“I’m excited to welcome Greg Brown, who is one of the best defensive backs coach in all of football to our staff at Auburn,” Malzahn said in the release.
