HOOVER, Ala. — Tony Barnhart joined Frank Frangie and Hays Carlyon of 1010XL Jax Sports Radio on radio row during SEC Media Days on Monday to discuss the state of the conference.
Barnhart said he expects media members to pick Alabama to win the SEC title, but he doesn’t count out Auburn after the addition of quarterback Jarrett Stidham, a JC transfer who began his career at Baylor.
“If Jarrett Stidham is what the Auburn coaches think he is — and what he’s shown in practice and what I’ve heard he is — then then Auburn’s going to be the second-best team in this league,” Barnhart said.
