Auburn Tigers OL Coach Jake Thornton Building the Right Way

"That's why I came to Auburn because I believe in coach freeze," Thornton told Jason Caldwell of Auburn Undercover. "We were talking about the job and he said, 'I want to build this thing off high school players.' That's why I jumped at the opportunity. That's why I got into college coaching was to help high school players develop and give them an opportunity to achieve their goals."
"Taking the lunch pail to work approach has meant making sure that the crucial open heart surgery that was performed previously on the splintered offensive line happened via the transfer portal. Auburn signed five transfer offensive linemen in 2023, but just one last year."
He accepted a position at Tennessee State earlier in the spring/summer before coming here that same year. Never coached a game at Tennessee State.I love what he is saying but didn't he leave late in the year at another school to come to us for the year? Am I mixing something up here with another school or coach? I am very happy he sees opportunity with us and helps him along his career path.
Penn St gonna run the 3-3-5? Or is TV getting out of town ahead of the Satterfield posse?Veidt leaves Cincy to move down to Ped St. LB coach?
I can guarantee you this team will have more "attitude" than we've seen in a while. I like a team that plays with a chip on its shoulder. We've been too nice and sportsman like for too long. Don't play dirty but no more helping our opponents up after the play.Man, I cannot wait to see the "New" Iowa State Cyclone football team. I want coaches and players who want to be in Ames and want to represent Cyclone football.
Im betting he becomes DC or at least Co-DC next year. Besides the pay might be the same.He accepted a position at Tennessee State earlier in the spring/summer before coming here that same year. Never coached a game at Tennessee State.
Made me chuckle. New assistant S&C coach Abe Spencer’s dad Glenn chimes in. If that name sounds familiar, it’s because Glenn has been a long time defensive coach all over the country - and spent some time in Stillwater as DC not that long ago.
Side note - the senior Spencer is married to sportscaster Jeannine Edwards https://www.usatoday.com/story/spor...state-glenn-spencer-jeannine-edwards/2325877/
