AUBURN, Ala. u2015 Kodi Burns, having grown up in Gus Malzahn's world of hurry-up everything, knew he'd be put to the test quickly as Auburn's new receivers coach.

But so soon?

"I got hired and it was, 'We start practice in two weeks.' I'm, 'Wow.' But that's exciting," Burns said Tuesday. "That's why you're doing it: To be coaching on the field with your guys and developing talent."

Auburn announced Monday that Burns had replaced Dameyune Craig, who left for LSU, as the Tigers' receivers coach and co-offensive coordinator.
