Bryan Matthews, Caleb Jones and Jay G. Tate reconvene to discuss the most pressing news, which today centers around Alex Golesh essentially finishing off his staff for 2026. (And it's a damn good one.) Also: Larry Scott brings a TON of experience to the table at TE. Larry Porter knows Auburn, knows how to recruit, is very good. Tim Banks might be the steal of this staff. Auburn has several guys headed to the portal. Who are the toughest hits? What is Auburn getting in OL Bear McWhorter? What happened with this 2026 signing class? Who gets the (dis)credit? The Fightin' Pearls clawed out a win against Chattanooga. Tahaad Pettiford sure plays well on the road! The weekend game against Purdue will be another major test. Shoutouts. The show is presented by VooDoo Wing Company with locations in Auburn, Mobile, Tuscaloosa, Florence, suburban Charlotte, Chapel Hill and Las Vegas.
